Knowledge Acquisition for Natural Resource Management
نویسنده
چکیده
17 Decision Support Systems (DSSs) can play a powerful role in Natural Resource 18 Management (NRM), by allowing more effective and collective use of information in 19 addressing complex and often poorly structured questions. CSIRO Tropical Agriculture, in 20 Townsville Australia, is developing a DSS generator that provides a flexible environment 21 for the construction of decision support tools that assist in assessing the implications of 22 proposed policies or management actions. In this context, the POSEIDON system was 23 designed to help resource managers with the problem formulation phase of building a DSS, 24 i.e., identifying specific issues that need to be analysed to provide an answer to a broad 25 NRM question. This is achieved by a form of knowledge acquisition from free text, which 26 performs intelligent analysis of NRM documents. This article describes the design of 27 POSEIDON and its application in NRM problem formulation. 28

Ontoprima: a Prototype for Automating Ontology Population
Ontology Population supports the process of building ontologies in the complex task of instantiating ontology. Performing this process manually is both expensive and time consuming; this logically leads to attempts of fully or partially automating the process of acquisition and absorption of knowledge in general and the process of Ontology Population in particular. This paper presents OntoPRiMa...
متن کاملCollaboratively constructed knowledge repositories as a resource for domain independent concept extraction
To achieve a domain independent text management, a flexible and adaptive knowledge repository is indispensable and represents the key resource for solving many challenges in natural language processing. Especially for real world applications, the needed resources cannot be provided for technical disciplines, like engineering in the energy or the automotive domain. We therefore propose in this p...

Web-based tools have fundamentally revolutionized the ways of knowledge acquisition, propagation, aggregation, understanding, and analysis. This is exemplified by Wikipedia, one of the most successful Web tools that support collective knowledge management in a large user community. Semantic wikis are extensions to wikis with semantic technologies that are aimed at further facilitating better hu...
متن کاملEnhancing an Environment for Knowledge Acquisition based on Web Resources by Automatic Tag Type Identification
Resource based learning is a form of demand-oriented learning where learners close knowledge gaps by self-directed knowledge acquisition. The WWW is commonly used as a major source for knowledge acquisition. Resource based learning requires a good resource management for persisting and reusing of research results. One possibility for resource management are tagging systems. This paper describes...

Citizen science has a significant contribution to Natural Resource Management (NRM) through the acquisition and sharing of knowledge. Innovative online technology is playing an increasing role in the support and implementation of citizen science activities. Two projects being conducted in Victoria are using web-based spatial applications to facilitate and support the use of community sourced in...
