Extracting Domain Semantics for Knowledge Discovery in Relational Databases

چکیده
Abstract Our research investigates how domain semantics are discovered from a relational database at a high level of automation. The discoveries are then represented as the extended EntityRelationship schema [2] (i.e., conceptual schema) and integrity constraints of the database, which can support and drive the subsequent knowledge discovery in this database. This paper presents a discovery process which obtains an extended Entity-Relationship schema from a relational database by analyzing not only data instances but also the executable data schema of’the database. In addition, our research appears to be the first ones to address the problem of erroneous data for discovering inclusion dependencies. An interactive knowledge-based system, the Knowledge Extraction System (KES), has been developed to perform the discovery process. KES demonstrates how knowledge-based systems technology can be applied to support the work of knowledge discovery in a database. It also illustrates that the discovery process can be implemented at a high level of automation.

Open Dialogue Management for Relational Databases
We present open dialogue management and its application to relational databases. An open dialogue manager generates dialogue states, actions, and default strategies from the semantics of its application domain. We define three open dialogue management tasks. First, vocabulary selection finds the intelligible attributes in each database table. Second, focus discovery selects candidate dialogue f...
متن کاملBuilding Domain Ontologies From Relational Database Using Mapping Rules
Ontologies have long been considered the core of semantics as they offer shareable and reusable knowledge about a particular domain. Improving and sharing domain specific knowledge residing in a database is one of the key challenges faced while developing any application. Due to the ever growing amount of data on the Web, it is almost impossible to extract meaningful data and the amount of manu...
