Analyzing the Tagging Quality of the Spanish OpenStreetMap
In this paper, a framework for the assessment of the quality of OpenStreetMap is presented, comprising a batch of methods to analyze the quality of entity tagging. The approach uses Taginfo as a reference base and analyses quality measures such as completeness, compliance, consistence, granularity, richness and trust . The framework has been used to analyze the quality of OpenStreetMap in Spain, comparing the main cities of Spain. Also a comparison between Spain and some major European cities has been carried out. Additionally, a Web tool has been also developed in order to facilitate the same kind of analysis in any area of the world
Spott : on-the-spot e-commerce for television using deep learning-based video analysis techniques
Spott is an innovative second screen mobile multimedia application which offers viewers relevant information on objects (e.g., clothing, furniture, food) they see and like on their television screens. The application enables interaction between TV audiences and brands, so producers and advertisers can offer potential consumers tailored promotions, e-shop items, and/or free samples. In line with the current views on innovation management, the technological excellence of the Spott application is coupled with iterative user involvement throughout the entire development process. This article discusses both of these aspects and how they impact each other. First, we focus on the technological building blocks that facilitate the (semi-) automatic interactive tagging process of objects in the video streams. The majority of these building blocks extensively make use of novel and state-of-the-art deep learning concepts and methodologies. We show how these deep learning based video analysis techniques facilitate video summarization, semantic keyframe clustering, and (similar) object retrieval. Secondly, we provide insights in user tests that have been performed to evaluate and optimize the application's user experience. The lessons learned from these open field tests have already been an essential input in the technology development and will further shape the future modifications to the Spott application
Doc2EDAG: An End-to-End Document-level Framework for Chinese Financial Event Extraction
Most existing event extraction (EE) methods merely extract event arguments
within the sentence scope. However, such sentence-level EE methods struggle to
handle soaring amounts of documents from emerging applications, such as
finance, legislation, health, etc., where event arguments always scatter across
different sentences, and even multiple such event mentions frequently co-exist
in the same document. To address these challenges, we propose a novel
end-to-end model, Doc2EDAG, which can generate an entity-based directed acyclic
graph to fulfill the document-level EE (DEE) effectively. Moreover, we
reformalize a DEE task with the no-trigger-words design to ease the
document-level event labeling. To demonstrate the effectiveness of Doc2EDAG, we
build a large-scale real-world dataset consisting of Chinese financial
announcements with the challenges mentioned above. Extensive experiments with
comprehensive analyses illustrate the superiority of Doc2EDAG over
state-of-the-art methods. Data and codes can be found at

Semantic modelling of user interests based on cross-folksonomy analysis
The continued increase in Web usage, in particular participation in folksonomies, reveals a trend towards a more dynamic and interactive Web where individuals can organise and share resources. Tagging has emerged as the de-facto standard for the organisation of such resources, providing a versatile and reactive knowledge management mechanism that users find easy to use and understand. It is common nowadays for users to have multiple profiles in various folksonomies, thus distributing their tagging activities. In this paper, we present a method for the automatic consolidation of user profiles across two popular social networking sites, and subsequent semantic modelling of their interests utilising Wikipedia as a multi-domain model. We evaluate how much can be learned from such sites, and in which domains the knowledge acquired is focussed. Results show that far richer interest profiles can be generated for users when multiple tag-clouds are combine
