PERICLES Deliverable 4.3:Content Semantics and Use Context Analysis Techniques
The current deliverable summarises the work conducted within task T4.3 of WP4, focusing on the extraction and the subsequent analysis of semantic information from digital content, which is imperative for its preservability. More specifically, the deliverable defines content semantic information from a visual and textual perspective, explains how this information can be exploited in long-term digital preservation and proposes novel approaches for extracting this information in a scalable manner. Additionally, the deliverable discusses novel techniques for retrieving and analysing the context of use of digital objects. Although this topic has not been extensively studied by existing literature, we believe use context is vital in augmenting the semantic information and maintaining the usability and preservability of the digital objects, as well as their ability to be accurately interpreted as initially intended.PERICLE
Automatic domain ontology extraction for context-sensitive opinion mining
Automated analysis of the sentiments presented in online consumer feedbacks can facilitate both organizations’ business strategy development and individual consumers’ comparison shopping. Nevertheless, existing opinion mining methods either adopt a context-free sentiment classification approach or rely on a large number of manually annotated training examples to perform context sensitive sentiment classification. Guided by the design science research methodology, we illustrate the design, development, and evaluation of a novel fuzzy domain ontology based contextsensitive opinion mining system. Our novel ontology extraction mechanism underpinned by a variant of Kullback-Leibler divergence can automatically acquire contextual sentiment knowledge across various product domains to improve the sentiment analysis processes. Evaluated based on a benchmark dataset and real consumer reviews collected from Amazon.com, our system shows remarkable performance improvement over the context-free baseline
Enhanced ontology-based text classification algorithm for structurally organized documents
Text classification (TC) is an important foundation of information retrieval and text
mining. The main task of a TC is to predict the text‟s class according to the type of tag given in advance. Most TC algorithms used terms in representing the document which does not consider the relations among the terms. These algorithms represent documents in a space where every word is assumed to be a dimension. As a result such representations generate high dimensionality which gives a negative effect on
the classification performance. The objectives of this thesis are to formulate algorithms for classifying text by creating suitable feature vector and reducing the dimension of data which will enhance the classification accuracy. This research combines the ontology and text representation for classification by developing five algorithms. The first and second algorithms namely Concept Feature Vector (CFV)
and Structure Feature Vector (SFV), create feature vector to represent the document.
The third algorithm is the Ontology Based Text Classification (OBTC) and is designed to reduce the dimensionality of training sets. The fourth and fifth algorithms, Concept Feature Vector_Text Classification (CFV_TC) and Structure Feature Vector_Text Classification (SFV_TC) classify the document to its related
set of classes. These proposed algorithms were tested on five different scientific paper datasets downloaded from different digital libraries and repositories. Experimental obtained from the proposed algorithm, CFV_TC and SFV_TC shown better average results in terms of precision, recall, f-measure and accuracy compared against SVM and RSS approaches. The work in this study contributes to exploring the related document in information retrieval and text mining research by using ontology in TC
An Ontology-Based Recommender System with an Application to the Star Trek Television Franchise
Collaborative filtering based recommender systems have proven to be extremely
successful in settings where user preference data on items is abundant.
However, collaborative filtering algorithms are hindered by their weakness
against the item cold-start problem and general lack of interpretability.
Ontology-based recommender systems exploit hierarchical organizations of users
and items to enhance browsing, recommendation, and profile construction. While
ontology-based approaches address the shortcomings of their collaborative
filtering counterparts, ontological organizations of items can be difficult to
obtain for items that mostly belong to the same category (e.g., television
series episodes). In this paper, we present an ontology-based recommender
system that integrates the knowledge represented in a large ontology of
literary themes to produce fiction content recommendations. The main novelty of
this work is an ontology-based method for computing similarities between items
and its integration with the classical Item-KNN (K-nearest neighbors)
algorithm. As a study case, we evaluated the proposed method against other
approaches by performing the classical rating prediction task on a collection
of Star Trek television series episodes in an item cold-start scenario. This
transverse evaluation provides insights into the utility of different
information resources and methods for the initial stages of recommender system
development. We found our proposed method to be a convenient alternative to
collaborative filtering approaches for collections of mostly similar items,
particularly when other content-based approaches are not applicable or
otherwise unavailable. Aside from the new methods, this paper contributes a
testbed for future research and an online framework to collaboratively extend
the ontology of literary themes to cover other narrative content.Comment: 25 pages, 6 figures, 5 tables, minor revision
A tensor-based approach for big data representation and dimensionality reduction
PublishedJournal Article© 2013 IEEE. Variety and veracity are two distinct characteristics of large-scale and heterogeneous data. It has been a great challenge to efficiently represent and process big data with a unified scheme. In this paper, a unified tensor model is proposed to represent the unstructured, semistructured, and structured data. With tensor extension operator, various types of data are represented as subtensors and then are merged to a unified tensor. In order to extract the core tensor which is small but contains valuable information, an incremental high order singular value decomposition (IHOSVD) method is presented. By recursively applying the incremental matrix decomposition algorithm, IHOSVD is able to update the orthogonal bases and compute the new core tensor. Analyzes in terms of time complexity, memory usage, and approximation accuracy of the proposed method are provided in this paper. A case study illustrates that approximate data reconstructed from the core set containing 18% elements can guarantee 93% accuracy in general. Theoretical analyzes and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed unified tensor model and IHOSVD method are efficient for big data representation and dimensionality reduction
