Technology Integration around the Geographic Information: A State of the Art
One of the elements that have popularized and facilitated the use of geographical information on a variety of computational applications has been the use of Web maps; this has opened new research challenges on different subjects, from locating places and people, the study of social behavior or the analyzing of the hidden structures of the terms used in a natural language query used for locating a place. However, the use of geographic information under technological features is not new, instead it has been part of a development and technological integration process. This paper presents a state of the art review about the application of geographic information under different approaches: its use on location based services, the collaborative user participation on it, its contextual-awareness, its use in the Semantic Web and the challenges of its use in natural languge queries. Finally, a prototype that integrates most of these areas is presented
Hypotheses, evidence and relationships: The HypER approach for representing scientific knowledge claims
Biological knowledge is increasingly represented as a collection of (entity-relationship-entity) triplets. These are queried, mined, appended to papers, and published. However, this representation ignores the argumentation contained within a paper and the relationships between hypotheses, claims and evidence put forth in the article. In this paper, we propose an alternate view of the research article as a network of 'hypotheses and evidence'. Our knowledge representation focuses on scientific discourse as a rhetorical activity, which leads to a different direction in the development of tools and processes for modeling this discourse. We propose to extract knowledge from the article to allow the construction of a system where a specific scientific claim is connected, through trails of meaningful relationships, to experimental evidence. We discuss some current efforts and future plans in this area
Supervised Typing of Big Graphs using Semantic Embeddings
We propose a supervised algorithm for generating type embeddings in the same
semantic vector space as a given set of entity embeddings. The algorithm is
agnostic to the derivation of the underlying entity embeddings. It does not
require any manual feature engineering, generalizes well to hundreds of types
and achieves near-linear scaling on Big Graphs containing many millions of
triples and instances by virtue of an incremental execution. We demonstrate the
utility of the embeddings on a type recommendation task, outperforming a
non-parametric feature-agnostic baseline while achieving 15x speedup and
near-constant memory usage on a full partition of DBpedia. Using
state-of-the-art visualization, we illustrate the agreement of our
extensionally derived DBpedia type embeddings with the manually curated domain
ontology. Finally, we use the embeddings to probabilistically cluster about 4
million DBpedia instances into 415 types in the DBpedia ontology.Comment: 6 pages, to be published in Semantic Big Data Workshop at ACM, SIGMOD

Mapping Big Data into Knowledge Space with Cognitive Cyber-Infrastructure
Big data research has attracted great attention in science, technology,
industry and society. It is developing with the evolving scientific paradigm,
the fourth industrial revolution, and the transformational innovation of
technologies. However, its nature and fundamental challenge have not been
recognized, and its own methodology has not been formed. This paper explores
and answers the following questions: What is big data? What are the basic
methods for representing, managing and analyzing big data? What is the
relationship between big data and knowledge? Can we find a mapping from big
data into knowledge space? What kind of infrastructure is required to support
not only big data management and analysis but also knowledge discovery, sharing
and management? What is the relationship between big data and science paradigm?
What is the nature and fundamental challenge of big data computing? A
multi-dimensional perspective is presented toward a methodology of big data
computing.Comment: 59 page
