چکیده

We argue that for a personal agent working within a Semantic Web framework, machine learning is essential. We identify two topologies in the Semantic Web, and refer to these as: (1) semantic forests (disjoint trees) and (2) true semantic webs (complex interconnected graphs). An example of (1) is Citeseer BibTeX mapped to RDF; an example of (2) is FOAF, an RDF representation of people and their relationships. In this paper we explore a number of techniques (naı̈ve Bayes, K-NN, ILP, clustering) for learning knowledge that is neither explicitly stated nor deducable from such data. The learned knowledge itself consists of firstclass Semantic Web statements, maximizing its usefulness and re-usability. We also discuss the need for preprocessing and fault tolerance when learning from real distributed Semantic Web data.

Synchronous turnover of flora, fauna, and climate at the Eocene–Oligocene Boundary in Asia

The Eocene-Oligocene Boundary (~34 million years ago) marks one of the largest extinctions of marine invertebrates in the world oceans and of mammalian fauna in Europe and Asia in the Cenozoic era. A shift to a cooler climate across this boundary has been suggested as the cause of this extinction in the marine environment, but there is no manifold evidence for a synchronous turnover of flora, f...

Nutrient Effects on Spring Flora and Fauna

Many of Florida’s springs and spring runs are enriched in nitrate due to broad-scale contamination of groundwater supplies. This observation fosters two primary and interrelated concerns regarding the effects of nutrients on flora and fauna in spring systems. High nitrate concentrations can affect fauna directly through toxicity. In addition, high nitrate concentrations can promote eutrophicati...
