A Protein Annotation Framework Empowered with Semantic Reasoning

Multimedia Information Extraction in Ontology-based Semantic Annotation of Product Catalogues

—The demand for efficient methods for extracting knowledge from multimedia content has led to a growing research community investigating the convergence of multimedia and knowledge technologies. In this paper we describe a methodology for extracting multimedia information from product catalogues empowered by the synergetic use and extension of a domain ontology. The methodology was implemented ...

RKB: a Semantic Web knowledge base for RNA

Increasingly sophisticated knowledge about RNA structure and function requires an inclusive knowledge representation that facilitates the integration of independently -generated information arising from such efforts as genome sequencing projects, microarray analyses, structure determination and RNA SELEX experiments. While RNAML, an XML-based representation, has been proposed as an exchange for...

Semantic-Based Image Retrial in the VQ Compressed Domain using Image Annotation Statistical Models

Academic Program Administration via Semantic Web – A Case Study

Generally, administrative systems in an academic environment are disjoint and support independent queries. The objective in this work is to semantically connect these independent systems to provide support to queries run on the integrated platform. The proposed framework, by enriching educational material in the legacy systems, provides a value-added semantics layer where activities such as ann...
