Improving Interlinking
نویسنده
چکیده
In the past few years there has been a considerable amount of growth in the Web of Linked Data. A large amount of the information available on the web is in the unstructured form. With the increase in the number of data resources, linking such heterogeneous resources has now become a challenge. Even though, there are many automatic tools available to interlink heterogeneous data sources, the links generated by these approaches are often found not to be precise. Semiautomatic tools have been proven to be more efficient and precise. However, not much attention has been given to the user interface of these tools. People often have found it difficult to use these tools. This dissertation proposes an approach to interlink heterogeneous data sets using a semiautomatic approach. The dissertation also determines how users behave differently to different user interfaces for data-interlinking. An evaluation approach was formulated in order to evaluate the efficiency, effectiveness and accuracy of the implemented system based on the proposed approach. In addition, the evaluation also determines how different user interfaces influence the task of data interlinking in linked data applications.

This paper investigates the university websites of Nigeria, Africa’s most populous nation. Its aim is to identify motivations why authors embed outbound hyperlinks on these websites. A classification scheme for academic web interlinking motivations was applied to over 5,000 hyperlinks pointing from the websites of 107 Nigerian universities. Classifying the motivations based on studying the sour...
متن کاملA modest proposal for data interlinking evaluation
Data interlinking, i.e., finding links between different linked data sets, is similar to ontology matching in various respects and would benefit from widely accepted evaluations such as the Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative. Instance matching evaluation has been performed as part of OAEI since 2009. Yet, there has been so far few participants to IM@OAEI and there is still no largely ackn...
متن کاملComputerized Linking of Capital Markets - A Viable Approach
Interlinking capital markets has always been an interesting issue since it not only provides more investment opportunities but also results in reduction of the risk of market volatility due to increase in the size of market. However, global and local barriers like different currencies, legal issues, settlement risks and costs prevent such interlink age to take place efficiently. In this paper, ...
متن کاملIncentives, Motivation, Participation, Games: Human Computation for Linked Data
Various tasks in publishing and maintaining Linked Data require human contribution at several ends. In this paper, we discuss the role of human intelligence in data interlinking. This justifies the necessity of incentive models, motivation mechanisms, and applying the paradigm of human computation to the interlinking process. To conclude, we give examples for using human computation for interli...
متن کاملAutomatic Interlinking of Music Datasets on the Semantic Web
In this paper, we describe current efforts towards interlinking music-related datasets on the Web. We first explain some initial interlinking experiences, and the poor results obtained by taking a näıve approach. We then detail a particular interlinking algorithm, taking into account both the similarities of web resources and of their neighbours. We detail the application of this algorithm in t...
