Motivating Ontology-Driven Information Extraction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ontologies can provide Information Extraction Systems (IES) with much needed domain and task knowledge. Yet, it has to be analysed to what extent and in which form ontologies can be utilised to enhance the overall performance of an IES. Further, the use of ontologies requires an accurate management of the same. The most important issue with this respect is to keep the ontology up-to-date, because the domain it represents will change inevitably. In this paper we motivate the use of ontologies within IES, especially for automating the extraction-rule generation process, which currently is the main obstacle to portable and scalable IESs.

Ontology-Driven Information Systems: Challenges and Requirements
The increased use of ontologies in several application fields makes it possible to observe requirements for their smooth integration within Information Systems. In this paper we analyse these requirements and propose the usage of additional semantic knowledge in the ontology to reconcile them. We think that these properties are essential to enhance the performance of ontology-driven Information...
متن کاملPresenting a method for extracting structured domain-dependent information from Farsi Web pages
Extracting structured information about entities from web texts is an important task in web mining, natural language processing, and information extraction. Information extraction is useful in many applications including search engines, question-answering systems, recommender systems, machine translation, etc. An information extraction system aims to identify the entities from the text and extr...
متن کاملontoX - A Method for Ontology-Driven Information Extraction
Information Extraction (IE) is an important research field within the Artificial Intelligence community, for it tries to extract relevant information out of vast amounts of data. In this paper, we propose an extraction method that utilises the content and pre-defined semantics of ontologies formulated in the Web Ontology Language (OWL) to perform the extraction task. We also propose our method ...

This paper motivates and describes the data integration component of INDUS (Intelligent Data Understanding System) environment for data-driven information extraction and integration from heterogeneous, distributed, autonomous information sources. The design of INDUS is motivated by the requirements of applications such as scientific discovery, in which it is desirable for users to be able to ac...
متن کاملOntology-Driven Information Extraction with OntoSyphon
The Semantic Web’s need for machine understandable content has led researchers to attempt to automatically acquire such content from a number of sources, including the web. To date, such research has focused on “document-driven” systems that individually process a small set of documents, annotating each with respect to a given ontology. This paper introduces OntoSyphon, an alternative that stri...
