Semantic Wonder Cloud: Exploratory Search in DBpedia
نویسندگان
چکیده
Inspired by the Google Wonder Wheel, in this paper we present Semantic Wonder Cloud (SWOC): a tool that helps users in knowledge exploration within the DBpedia dataset by adopting a hybrid approach. We describe both the architecture and the user interface. The system exploits not only pure semantic connections in the underlying RDF graph but it mixes the meaning of such information with external non-semantic knowledge sources, such as web search engines and tagging systems. Semantic Wonder Cloud allows the user to explore the relations between resources of knowledge domain via a simple and intuitive graphical interface.

Using the Structure of DBpedia for Exploratory Search
Recently there has been much work in defining similarity on heterogeneous networks in a supervised manner, using prescribed patterns based on the network schema. However, there is also a wealth of data that doesn’t ascribe rigidly to fixed schemas, such as DBpedia. In this work we explore the idea of using DBpedia for computing semantic relatedness in the context of an exploratory search. We fi...
متن کاملMobile Location-Driven Associative Search in DBpedia with Tag Clouds
A primary contextual source for today’s context-sensitive mobile phone apps is the user’s location. The recent surge in the availability of open linked data can provide location-oriented semantic context, still wanting to be explored in innovative ways. In PediaCloud, the Android tool described here, we show how we can use the associative structure of the Semantic Web at a geographical location...
متن کاملSemantic Tag Cloud Generation via DBpedia
Many current recommender systems exploit textual annotations (tags) provided by users to retrieve and suggest online contents. The text-based recommendation provided by these systems could be enhanced (i) using unambiguous identifiers representative of tags and (ii) exploiting semantic relations among tags which are impossible to be discovered by traditional textual analysis. In this paper we c...
متن کاملDBpedia - A large-scale, multilingual knowledge base extracted from Wikipedia
The DBpedia community project extracts structured, multilingual knowledge from Wikipedia and makes it freely available using Semantic Web and Linked Data standards. The extracted knowledge, comprising more than 1.8 billion facts, is structured according to an ontology maintained by the community. The knowledge is obtained from different Wikipedia language editions, thus covering more than 100 l...

The amount of data that is available in digital form is growing exponentially. Analyzing large data sets (so-called big data) will become a key basis of competition, underpinning new waves of productivity growth, innovation, and consumer surplus. A considerable amount of data is produced as unstructured text. Therefore, search, search-based applications, and text analytics will play an importan...
