Semantic Modeling of Analytic-based Relationships with Direct Qualification
Successfully modeling state and analytics-based semantic relationships of
documents enhances representation, importance, relevancy, provenience, and
priority of the document. These attributes are the core elements that form the
machine-based knowledge representation for documents. However, modeling
document relationships that can change over time can be inelegant, limited,
complex or overly burdensome for semantic technologies. In this paper, we
present Direct Qualification (DQ), an approach for modeling any semantically
referenced document, concept, or named graph with results from associated
applied analytics. The proposed approach supplements the traditional
subject-object relationships by providing a third leg to the relationship; the
qualification of how and why the relationship exists. To illustrate, we show a
prototype of an event-based system with a realistic use case for applying DQ to
relevancy analytics of PageRank and Hyperlink-Induced Topic Search (HITS).Comment: Proceedings of the 2015 IEEE 9th International Conference on Semantic

A multi-INT semantic reasoning framework for intelligence analysis support
Lockheed Martin Corp. has funded research to generate a framework
and methodology for developing semantic reasoning applications to support the
discipline oflntelligence Analysis. This chapter outlines that framework, discusses
how it may be used to advance the information sharing and integrated analytic
needs of the Intelligence Community, and suggests a system I software
architecture for such applications
A Generative Model of Words and Relationships from Multiple Sources
Neural language models are a powerful tool to embed words into semantic
vector spaces. However, learning such models generally relies on the
availability of abundant and diverse training examples. In highly specialised
domains this requirement may not be met due to difficulties in obtaining a
large corpus, or the limited range of expression in average use. Such domains
may encode prior knowledge about entities in a knowledge base or ontology. We
propose a generative model which integrates evidence from diverse data sources,
enabling the sharing of semantic information. We achieve this by generalising
the concept of co-occurrence from distributional semantics to include other
relationships between entities or words, which we model as affine
transformations on the embedding space. We demonstrate the effectiveness of
this approach by outperforming recent models on a link prediction task and
demonstrating its ability to profit from partially or fully unobserved data
training labels. We further demonstrate the usefulness of learning from
different data sources with overlapping vocabularies.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures; incorporated feedback from reviewers; to appear

Structurally Tractable Uncertain Data
Many data management applications must deal with data which is uncertain,
incomplete, or noisy. However, on existing uncertain data representations, we
cannot tractably perform the important query evaluation tasks of determining
query possibility, certainty, or probability: these problems are hard on
arbitrary uncertain input instances. We thus ask whether we could restrict the
structure of uncertain data so as to guarantee the tractability of exact query
evaluation. We present our tractability results for tree and tree-like
uncertain data, and a vision for probabilistic rule reasoning. We also study
uncertainty about order, proposing a suitable representation, and study
uncertain data conditioned by additional observations.Comment: 11 pages, 1 figure, 1 table. To appear in SIGMOD/PODS PhD Symposium

Ontology mapping: the state of the art
Ontology mapping is seen as a solution provider in today's landscape of ontology research. As the number of ontologies that are made publicly available and accessible on the Web increases steadily, so does the need for applications to use them. A single ontology is no longer enough to support the tasks envisaged by a distributed environment like the Semantic Web. Multiple ontologies need to be accessed from several applications. Mapping could provide a common layer from which several ontologies could be accessed and hence could exchange information in semantically sound manners. Developing such mapping has beeb the focus of a variety of works originating from diverse communities over a number of years. In this article we comprehensively review and present these works. We also provide insights on the pragmatics of ontology mapping and elaborate on a theoretical approach for defining ontology mapping
