Ontology-based process for recommending health websites
Website content quality is particularly relevant in the health domain. A common user needs to retrieve health information that is precise, reliable and relevant to his/her profile. Website recommendation systems are an aid to get high quality health-related web sites according to the user's needs. However, in practice, it is not always evident how to describe recommendation criteria for health website. The goal of this paper is to describe, by an ontology network, the criteria used by a health website recommendation process. This ontology network conceptualizes the different domains that are involved in the Salus Recommendation Project as a set of interrelated ontologies.Publicado en IFIP Advances in Information and Communication Technology book series (IFIPAICT, vol. 341).Laboratorio de Investigación y Formación en Informática Avanzad

Data-driven Job Search Engine Using Skills and Company Attribute Filters
According to a report online, more than 200 million unique users search for
jobs online every month. This incredibly large and fast growing demand has
enticed software giants such as Google and Facebook to enter this space, which
was previously dominated by companies such as LinkedIn, Indeed and
CareerBuilder. Recently, Google released their "AI-powered Jobs Search Engine",
"Google For Jobs" while Facebook released "Facebook Jobs" within their
platform. These current job search engines and platforms allow users to search
for jobs based on general narrow filters such as job title, date posted,
experience level, company and salary. However, they have severely limited
filters relating to skill sets such as C++, Python, and Java and company
related attributes such as employee size, revenue, technographics and
micro-industries. These specialized filters can help applicants and companies
connect at a very personalized, relevant and deeper level. In this paper we
present a framework that provides an end-to-end "Data-driven Jobs Search
Engine". In addition, users can also receive potential contacts of recruiters
and senior positions for connection and networking opportunities. The high
level implementation of the framework is described as follows: 1) Collect job
postings data in the United States, 2) Extract meaningful tokens from the
postings data using ETL pipelines, 3) Normalize the data set to link company
names to their specific company websites, 4) Extract and ranking the skill
sets, 5) Link the company names and websites to their respective company level
attributes with the EVERSTRING Company API, 6) Run user-specific search queries
on the database to identify relevant job postings and 7) Rank the job search
results. This framework offers a highly customizable and highly targeted search
experience for end users.Comment: 8 pages, 10 figures, ICDM 201
Towards the Design of a Textile Chemical Ontology
The main goal of this paper is to present the initial version of a Textile Chemical Ontology, to be used by textile professionals with the purpose of conceptualising and representing the banned and harmful chemical substances that are forbidden in this domain. After analysing different methodologies and determining that “Methontology” is the most appropriate for the purposes, this methodology is explored and applied to the domain. In this manner, an initial set of concepts are defined, together with their hierarchy and the relationships between them. This paper shows the benefits of using the ontology through a real use case in the context of Information Retrieval. The potentiality of the proposed ontology in this preliminary evaluation encourages extending the ontology with a higher number of concepts and relationships, and validating it within other Natural Language Processing applications.This research is partially funded by the European Commission under the Seventh (FP7 - 2007- 2013) Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development through the FIRST project (FP7-287607).

RECOMED: A Comprehensive Pharmaceutical Recommendation System
A comprehensive pharmaceutical recommendation system was designed based on
the patients and drugs features extracted from Drugs.com and Druglib.com.
First, data from these databases were combined, and a dataset of patients and
drug information was built. Secondly, the patients and drugs were clustered,
and then the recommendation was performed using different ratings provided by
patients, and importantly by the knowledge obtained from patients and drug
specifications, and considering drug interactions. To the best of our
knowledge, we are the first group to consider patients conditions and history
in the proposed approach for selecting a specific medicine appropriate for that
particular user. Our approach applies artificial intelligence (AI) models for
the implementation. Sentiment analysis using natural language processing
approaches is employed in pre-processing along with neural network-based
methods and recommender system algorithms for modeling the system. In our work,
patients conditions and drugs features are used for making two models based on
matrix factorization. Then we used drug interaction to filter drugs with severe
or mild interactions with other drugs. We developed a deep learning model for
recommending drugs by using data from 2304 patients as a training set, and then
we used data from 660 patients as our validation set. After that, we used
knowledge from critical information about drugs and combined the outcome of the
model into a knowledge-based system with the rules obtained from constraints on
taking medicine.Comment: 39 pages, 14 figures, 13 table
Semantic user profiling techniques for personalised multimedia recommendation
Due to the explosion of news materials available through broadcast and other channels, there is an increasing need for personalised news video retrieval. In this work, we introduce a semantic-based user modelling technique to capture users’ evolving information needs. Our approach exploits implicit user interaction to capture long-term user interests in a profile. The organised interests are used to retrieve and recommend news stories to the users. In this paper, we exploit the Linked Open Data Cloud to identify similar news stories that match the users’ interest. We evaluate various recommendation parameters by introducing a simulation-based evaluation scheme
Expanding the Usage of Web Archives by Recommending Archived Webpages Using Only the URI
Web archives are a window to view past versions of webpages. When a user requests a webpage on the live Web, such as http://tripadvisor.com/where_to_t ravel/, the webpage may not be found, which results in an HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) 404 response. The user then may search for the webpage in a Web archive, such as the Internet Archive. Unfortunately, if this page had never been archived, the user will not be able to view the page, nor will the user gain any information on other webpages that have similar content in the archive, such as the archived webpage http://classy-travel.net. Similarly, if the user requests the webpage http://hokiesports.com/football/ from the Internet Archive, the user will only find the requested webpage, and the user will not gain any information on other webpages that have similar content in the archive, such as the archived webpage http://techsideline.com. In this research, we will build a model for selecting and ranking possible recommended webpages at a Web archive. This is to enhance both HTTP 404 responses and HTTP 200 responses by surfacing webpages in the archive that the user may not know existed. First, we detect semantics in the requested Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). Next, we classify the URI using an ontology, such as DMOZ or any website directory. Finally, we filter and rank candidates based on several features, such as archival quality, webpage popularity, temporal similarity, and content similarity. We measure the performance of each step using different techniques, including calculating the F1 to measure of different tokenization methods and the classification. We tested the model using human evaluation to determine if we could classify and find recommendations for a sample of requests from the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine access log. Overall, when selecting the full categorization, reviewers agreed with 80.3% of the recommendations, which is much higher than “do not agree” and “I do not know”. This indicates the reviewer is more likely to agree on the recommendations when selecting the full categorization. But when selecting the first level only, reviewers only agreed with 25.5% of the recommendations. This indicates that having deep level categorization improves the performance of finding relevant recommendations
Flavour Enhanced Food Recommendation
We propose a mechanism to use the features of flavour to enhance the quality
of food recommendations. An empirical method to determine the flavour of food
is incorporated into a recommendation engine based on major gustatory nerves.
Such a system has advantages of suggesting food items that the user is more
likely to enjoy based upon matching with their flavour profile through use of
the taste biological domain knowledge. This preliminary intends to spark more
robust mechanisms by which flavour of food is taken into consideration as a
major feature set into food recommendation systems. Our long term vision is to
integrate this with health factors to recommend healthy and tasty food to users
to enhance quality of life.Comment: In Proceedings of 5th International Workshop on Multimedia Assisted
