RDF as a Data Model

نویسنده

چکیده

The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is the W3C recommendation language for representing metadata about Web resources. It is the basic data layer of the Semantic Web. The original design was influenced by the Web, library, XML and Knowledge representation communities. The driving idea was a language to represent information in a minimally constraining and flexible way. It turns out that the impact of the proposal goes far beyond the initial goal, particularly as a model for representing information with a graph-like structure. In the first half of the talk we will review RDF as a database model, that is, from a data management perspective. We will compare it with two data models developed by the database community which have strong similarities with RDF, namely, the semistructured and the graph data models. We will focus the comparison on data structures and query languages. In the second half of the talk, we will discuss some of the challenges posed by RDF to the Computer Science Theory Community: 1. RDF as data model: Database or knowledge base? 2. Abstract model for RDF: What is a good foundation? 3. Concrete –real life– RDF data: What are the interesting fragments? 4. Theoretical novelties of the RDF data model: Are there any? 5. RDF Query Language: Can the database experience be of any help? 6. Infrastructure for large-scale evaluation of data management methodologies and tools for RDF: Waiting for something? 7. Storing, Indexing, Integrity Constraints, Visualization et al.: Theory is required. ⋆ The speaker acknowledges the support of Millennium Nucleus Center for Web Research, Grant P04-067-F, Mideplan, Chile.

Neuron Mathematical Model Representation of Neural Tensor Network for RDF Knowledge Base Completion

In this paper, a state-of-the-art neuron mathematical model of neural tensor network (NTN) is proposed to RDF knowledge base completion problem. One of the difficulties with the parameter of the network is that representation of its neuron mathematical model is not possible. For this reason, a new representation of this network is suggested that solves this difficulty. In the representation, th...

Study on Baseflow Separation of "Abolabas River” Using ADUKIH and RDF Methods

Objective: Currently, the evaluation of baseflow components have been of a worldwide concern due to the influential role of streamflow (base flow and direct flow)in agriculture, water sources management as well as supplying the potable water. Direct and field measurement of baseflow is not practicable especially in large areas with statistics deficiencies. Also, this would not be economically e...

Study and Constructing RDF model for a well formatted Valid XML document

In recent years semantic web is one of the technologies to make the WWW as machineunderstandable. The Resource Description Framework (RDF) proposed by W3C is used for describing metadata about (Web) resources. The RDF data model can be represented as entity-relationship or class diagrams, as it is based upon the idea of making statements about resources (in particular Web resources) in the form...
