Home - Common Tag
Common Tag is an open tagging format developed to make content more connected, discoverable and engaging. Unlike free-text tags, Common Tags are references to unique, well-defined concepts, complete with metadata and their own URLs. With Common Tag, site owners can more easily create topic hubs, cross-promote their content, and enrich their pages with free data, images and widgets.
Beyond Synonymy
The Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) contains semantic information about terms from various sources, each concept can be understood and located by its relationships to other concepts: this is a result of the organizing principle of semantic locality. We describe a method in which the semantic relationships between concepts are used to map concepts from different vocabularies in the UMLS. Applied to mapping concepts to MeSH, this method is able to map 50 to 65% of the non-MeSH concepts to MeSH. A manual review of the mapping shows a relevance rate of 61%. Causes of failure include a lack of consistently represented relationships in the UMLS, and some inconsistencies in the categorization of the concepts. The limits of this method are discussed, as well as possible adaptations for other uses.
Google's Rich Snippets and the Semantic Web - O'Reilly Radar
There's a long-time debate between those who advocate for semantic markup, and those who believe that machine learning will eventually get us to the holy grail of a Semantic Web, one in which computer programs actually understand the meaning of what they see and read.
YAGO-NAGA - D5: Databases and Information Systems (Max-Planck-Institut für Informatik)
The YAGO-NAGA project started in 2006 with the goal of building a conveniently searchable, large-scale, highly accurate knowledge base of common facts in a machine-processible representation.
We have already harvested knowledge about millions of entities and facts about their relationships, from Wikipedia and WordNet with careful integration of these two sources. The resulting knowledge base, coined YAGO, has very high precision and is freely available. The facts are represented as RDF triples, and we have developed methods and prototype systems for querying, ranking, and exploring knowledge. Our search engine NAGA provides ranked answers to queries based on statistical models.
True Knowledge
The True Knowledge answer engine is a technology capable of answering questions put to it on any topic. If you would like to take it for a spin you can login (or apply for a beta account if you haven't done so already) using the box to the right.
swingly.com
Swingly is a new type of semantic search engine designed to help you find answers to questions — wherever they can be found on the Internet.
COSMO Common Semantic Model - Semantic Community Wiki
COSMO is the proposed Common Semantic Model, viewed as consisting of a lattice of ontologies which will serve as a set of basic logically-specified concepts (classes, relations, functions, instances) with which the meanings of all terms and concepts in domain ontologies can be specified. The most important function of the COSMO is to serve as a Foundation Ontology that has a sufficient inverntory of fundamental concept representations so that it can support utilities to translate assertions of fundamentally different ontologies into the terminology and format of each other. The use of a common set of defining concepts will permit accurate interoperability of knowledge-based systems using the logical relations of their ontologies as the basis for reasoning in the system. The COSMO can also be used as the starting ontology for creation of more specialized domain ontologies.
Semantic API
Semantic Cloud is the API that powers semantic search engine SenseBot and contextual linking tool for bloggers LinkSensor. The API supports SOAP and REST protocols (HTTP GET).
The idea is to empower semantic startups or any ventures that are looking to utilize an affordable high-quality semantic solution to build their applications.
Semantic API features include:
• extraction of semantic concepts from a page or document;
• creating a “semantic cloud” of concepts describing a group of documents;
• generating a multi-document summary of a set of pages;
• generating an essay on a topic based on a set of documents.
Multiple parameters allow the client to control the type and format of results.
Welcome to the NeOn Project
Our aim is to advance the state of the art in using ontologies for large-scale semantic applications in the distributed organizations. Particularly, we aim at improving the capability to handle multiple networked ontologies that exist in a particular context, are created collaboratively, and might be highly dynamic and constantly evolving.
Fenfire
Everything has to do with everything else.
Fenfire is a Free Software project developing a computing environment in which you can express these relationships and benefit from them.
Alex Faaborg - » Microformats - Part 0: Introduction
Have you been over hearing people talk about microformats and thought to yourself “what are those?” In this post I provide a quick introduction, and discuss the various ways that microformats are changing the Web.
Semantic Web Patterns: A Guide to Semantic Technologies - ReadWriteWeb
In this article, we'll analyze the trends and technologies that power the Semantic Web. We'll identify patterns that are beginning to emerge, classify the different trends, and peak into what the future holds.
Homepage | Zigtag
The intelligence aspect is that our tags have defined meanings, so when you tag a page, you are assigning it a definition rather than a simple word that could have multiple meanings. Having defined tags is what sets Zigtag apart from other social bookmarking web sites.
Yago - A Core of Semantic Knowledge
YAGO is a huge semantic knowledge base. Currently, YAGO knows more than 2 million entities (like persons, organizations, cities, etc.). It knows 20 million facts about these entities. Unlike many other automatically assembled knowledge bases, YAGO has a manually confirmed accuracy of 95%
LarKC: The Large Knowledge Collider - larKC
The aim of the EU FP 7 Large-Scale Integrating Project LarKC is to develop the Large Knowledge Collider (LarKC, for short, pronounced “lark”), a platform for massive distributed incomplete reasoning that will remove the scalability barriers of currently existing reasoning systems for the Semantic Web.
OSCA Foundation | Open Semantic Collaboration Architecture Foundation
The new Open Semantic Collaboration Architecture Foundation aims at common standards in collaborative software.
The OSCA Foundation brings together organisations and individuals interested in ensuring interoperability between desktops and collaborative environments. It provides a discussion and exchange forum as well as a meeting place for different stakeholder to explore joint interests and define and execute appropriate actions, aiming to ensure the continued evolution and standardisation of an open vendor- and platform-neutral interoperable collaborative environment architecture.
SMILA
SMILA is an extensible framework for building search solutions to access unstructured information in
the enterprise. Besides providing essential infrastructure components and services, SMILA also delivers
ready-to-use add-on components, like connectors to most relevant data sources. Using the framework as their
basis will enable developers to concentrate on the creation of higher value solutions, like semantic driven
applications etc.
Case Study: Semantic Tags
Faviki is a social bookmarking tool that allows users to annotate the contents of web pages by Wikipedia concepts. Using Wikipedia as a source of a universal controlled vocabulary, it provides so-called ‘semantic tags’ which are standardized and computer-interpretable. In this way, Faviki is able to solve some common problems related to classic ‘folksonomy’ tags, in particular: polysemy, synonymy, different lexical forms, and lack of a commonly agreed meaning of terms. In a wider perspective, Faviki aims to speed up the transition from Web 2.0 to the Semantic Web.
