Evaluation of SIRUP with the SIRUP Classification of Data Integration Conflicts

The SIRUP Ontology Query API in Action

Ontology languages to represent ontologies exist in large numbers, and users who want to access or reuse ontologies can often be confronted with a language they do not know. Therefore, ontology languages are nowadays themselves a source of heterogeneity. In this demo, we present the SIRUP Ontology Query API (SOQA) [5] that has been developed for the SIRUP approach to semantic data integration [...

User-Specific Semantic Integration of Heterogeneous Data: The SIRUP Approach

We give an overview of the SIRUP (Semantic Integration Reflecting User-specific semantic Perspectives) approach to semantic data integration that takes into account heterogeneity of data receivers. Our goal is to provide means that allow data from heterogeneous sources to be integrated in a way that it perfectly fits to a particular user’s information needs, emphasizing his individual way to pe...

Fungi and paper manufacture

Fungi have a significant impact on the economics of paper making and the end use of paper and products employing paper related components. Paper on a practical basis is a derivative of wood, and fungi that possess cellulose-degrading enzymes can directly impact the value and utility of various types of products. Fungi further have a negative economic impact on the pulp produced during paper man...

Screening methods to measure antioxidant activity of sorghum (sorghum bicolor) and sorghum products.

Specialty sorghums, their brans, and baked and extruded products were analyzed for antioxidant activity using three methods: oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), 2,2'-azinobis (3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). All sorghum samples were also analyzed for phenolic contents. Both ABTS and DPPH correlated highly with ORAC (R(2) = 0.99 a...
