On the role of domain ontologies in the design of domain-specific visual modeling langages
Domain-Specific Visual Modeling Languages should provide notations and abstractions that suitably support problem solving in well-defined application domains. From their userâs perspective, the languageâs modeling primitives must be intuitive and expressive enough in capturing all intended aspects of domain conceptualizations. Over the years formal and explicit representations of domain conceptualizations have been developed as domain ontologies. In this paper, we show how the design of these languages can benefit from conceptual tools developed by the ontology engineering community
Towards Model Checking Executable UML Specifications in mCRL2
We describe a translation of a subset of executable UML (xUML) into the process algebraic specification language mCRL2. This subset includes class diagrams with class generalisations, and state machines with signal and change events. The choice of these xUML constructs is dictated by their use in the modelling of railway interlocking systems. The long-term goal is to verify safety properties of interlockings modelled in xUML using the mCRL2 and LTSmin toolsets. Initial verification of an interlocking toy example demonstrates that the safety properties of model instances depend crucially on the run-to-completion assumptions
A Survey on Retrieval of Mathematical Knowledge
We present a short survey of the literature on indexing and retrieval of
mathematical knowledge, with pointers to 72 papers and tentative taxonomies of
both retrieval problems and recurring techniques.Comment: CICM 2015, 20 page

Identifying Web Tables - Supporting a Neglected Type of Content on the Web
The abundance of the data in the Internet facilitates the improvement of
extraction and processing tools. The trend in the open data publishing
encourages the adoption of structured formats like CSV and RDF. However, there
is still a plethora of unstructured data on the Web which we assume contain
semantics. For this reason, we propose an approach to derive semantics from web
tables which are still the most popular publishing tool on the Web. The paper
also discusses methods and services of unstructured data extraction and
processing as well as machine learning techniques to enhance such a workflow.
The eventual result is a framework to process, publish and visualize linked
open data. The software enables tables extraction from various open data
sources in the HTML format and an automatic export to the RDF format making the
data linked. The paper also gives the evaluation of machine learning techniques
in conjunction with string similarity functions to be applied in a tables
recognition task.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure
