چکیده

In this paper, we describe our query expansion approach submitted for the Semantic Enrichment task in Cultural Heritage in CLEF (CHiC) 2012. Our approach makes use of an external knowledge base such as Wikipedia and DBpedia. It consists of two major steps, concept candidates generation from knowledge bases and the selection of K-best related concepts. For selecting the K-best concepts, we ranked them according to their semantic relatedness with the query. We used Wikipedia-based Explicit Semantic Analysis to calculate the semantic relatedness scores. We evaluate our approach on 25 queries from the CHiC Semantic Enrichment dataset.

DCU at WikipediaMM 2009: Document Expansion from Wikipedia Abstracts

In this paper, we describe our participation in the WikipediaMM task at CLEF 2009. Our main efforts concern the expansion of the image metadata from the Wikipedia abstracts collection DBpedia. Since the metadata is short for retrieval by query words, we decided to expand the metadata using a typical query expansion method. In our experiments, we use the Rocchio algorithm for document expansion....

Querying linked data graphs using semantic relatedness: A vocabulary independent approach

Linked Data brings inherent challenges in the way users and applications consume the available data. Users consuming Linked Data on the Web, should be able to search and query data spread over potentially large numbers of heterogeneous, complex and distributed datasets. Ideally, a query mechanism for Linked Data should abstract users from the representation of data. This work focuses on the inv...

Wikipedia Entity Retrieval for Dutch and Spanish

We developed two systems (for Dutch and Spanish) for the GikiCLEF task, in which Wikipedia pages have to be found that match a description in natural language. We concentrated on linguistic analysis of the query, for mapping the question onto the most relevant Wikipedia categories, and for extracting additional constraints that matching pages have to satisfy. In addition, for Spanish we experim...

WC3: Analyzing the Style of Metadata Annotation Among Wikipedia Articles by Using Wikipedia Category and the DBpedia Metadata Database

WC3 (Wikipedia Category Consistency Checker) is a system that supports the analysis of the metadata-annotation style in Wikipedia articles belonging to a particular Wikipedia category (the subcategory of “Categories by parameter”) by using the DBpedia metadata database. This system aims to construct an appropriate SPARQL query to represent the category and compares the retrieved results and art...
