A Collaborative Interface for Editing Large Knowledge Bases
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new generation of knowledge/databases is emerging. These systems contain thousands of objects, densely interconnected and heterogeneously organized, entered from many sources, both human and automated. Such systems present tremendous challenges to their users, who must locate relevant information quickly and add new information effectively. Our research aims to understand and support the knowledge editing task. The HITS Knowledge Editor (HKE) is an interface that supports browsing and modifying the CYC knowledge base (Guha & Lenat 1990). HKE has been designed to be a collaborative interface, following a set of principles for sharing tasks between system and user. We describe these principles and illustrate how HKE provides resources built according to those principles that collaborate with its users on a variety of knowledge editing tasks. Introduction: problems with large

The Effects of Collaborative and Individual Output Tasks on Learning English Collocations
One of the most problematic areas in foreign language learning is collocation. It is often seen as arbitrary and an overwhelming obstacle to the achievement of nativelike fluency. Current second language (L2) instruction research has encouraged the use of collaborative output tasks in L2 classrooms. This study examined the effects of two types of output tasks (editing and cloze) on the learni...
متن کاملCollaborative Editing of Ontologies Using Fluent Editor and Ontorion
In this paper we present two tools that we are developing at Cognitum for manage large knowledge bases: Fluent Editor and the Ontorion Server. We will how we have been able to build a collaborative knowledge management system using these two tools. We will show how this system can be used for concurrent modification of knowledge and how we are managing multiple modification to the same knowledge.
متن کاملVisualizing User Editing Behavior in Collaborative Ontology-engineering Projects
Over the last decade, ontologies have become the mainstay in the biomedical domain. Their size and complexity, as well as, the required expert domain knowledge to create these ontologies have increased significantly. In addition, many projects resort to collaborative approaches for building these ontologies, using the Internet as a cooperation platform. While online collaborative projects have ...
متن کاملStatistical Models for Organizing Semantic Options in Knowledge Editing Interfaces
This paper describes the design and empirical evaluation of statistical models that use domain and lexical knowledge to organize new semantic options in interfaces for editing knowledge bases. We employ the models in a system that allows a domain expert to perform languageneutral knowledge editing by interacting with natural language text generated by a natural language generation system. This ...
متن کاملTeaching Academic Vocabulary Through Reconstruction Editing Task: Does Group Size Matter?
The use of collaborative classroom interactional tasks is on the rise recently since they incorporate the negotiation of meaning and thus they may be regarded as one of the most efficient ways to ease a learner’s focus on form. This study investigated the immediate and long-term effects of reconstruction editing task on the learning of 20 academic vocabulary items through using five reconstruct...
