Services For Connecting And Integrating Big Numbers Of Linked Datasets

Services for Connecting and Integrating Big Numbers of Linked Datasets

Linked Data is a method of publishing structured data to facilitate sharing, linking, searching and re-use. Many such datasets have already been published, but although their number and size continues to increase, the main objectives of linking and integration have not yet been fully realized, and even seemingly simple tasks, like finding all the available information for an entity, are still challenging. This book, Services for Connecting and Integrating Big Numbers of Linked Datasets, is the 50th volume in the series ‘Studies on the Semantic Web’. The book analyzes the research work done in the area of linked data integration, and focuses on methods that can be used at large scale. It then proposes indexes and algorithms for tackling some of the challenges, such as, methods for performing cross-dataset identity reasoning, finding all the available information for an entity, methods for ordering content-based dataset discovery, and others. The author demonstrates how content-based dataset discovery can be reduced to solving optimization problems, and techniques are proposed for solving these efficiently while taking the contents of the datasets into consideration. To order them in real time, the proposed indexes and algorithms have been implemented in a suite of services called LODsyndesis, in turn enabling the implementation of other high level services, such as techniques for knowledge graph embeddings, and services for data enrichment which can be exploited for machine-learning tasks, and which also improve the prediction of machine-learning problems.

The Semantic Web – ISWC 2022

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 21st International Semantic Web Conference, ISWC 2022, which took place in October 2022 in a virtual mode. The 48 full papers presented in this volume were thoroughly reviewed and selected from 239 submissions. They deal with the latest advances in fundamental research, innovative technology, and applications of the Semantic Web, linked data, knowledge graphs, and knowledge processing on the Web. Papers are organized in a research track, resources and in-use track. The research track details theoretical, analytical and empirical aspects of the Semantic Web and its intersection with other disciplines. The resources track promotes the sharing of resources which support, enable or utilize semantic web research, including datasets, ontologies, software, and benchmarks. And finally, the in-use-track is dedicated to novel and significant research contributions addressing theoretical, analytical and empirical aspects of the Semantic Web and its intersection with other disciplines. The chapters "Hashing the Hypertrie: Space- and Time-Efficient Indexing for SPARQL in Tensors", "Agree to Disagree: Managing Ontological Perspectives using Standpoint Logic", "GNNQ: A Neuro-Symbolic Approach to Query Answering over Incomplete Knowledge Graphs", "ISSA: Generic Pipeline, Knowledge Model and Visualization tools to Help Scientists Search and Make Sense of a Scientific Archiveare" are licensed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.
