A-posteriori provenance-enabled linking of publications and datasets via crowdsourcing
This paper aims to share with the digital library community different opportunities to leverage crowdsourcing for a-posteriori capturing of dataset citation graphs. We describe a practical approach, which exploits one possible crowdsourcing technique to collect these graphs from domain experts and proposes their publication as Linked Data using the W3C PROV standard. Based on our findings from a study we ran during the USEWOD 2014 workshop, we propose a semi-automatic approach that generates metadata by leveraging information extraction as an additional step to crowdsourcing, to generate high-quality data citation graphs. Furthermore, we consider the design implications on our crowdsourcing approach when non-expert participants are involved in the process<br/
From Word to Sense Embeddings: A Survey on Vector Representations of Meaning
Over the past years, distributed semantic representations have proved to be
effective and flexible keepers of prior knowledge to be integrated into
downstream applications. This survey focuses on the representation of meaning.
We start from the theoretical background behind word vector space models and
highlight one of their major limitations: the meaning conflation deficiency,
which arises from representing a word with all its possible meanings as a
single vector. Then, we explain how this deficiency can be addressed through a
transition from the word level to the more fine-grained level of word senses
(in its broader acceptation) as a method for modelling unambiguous lexical
meaning. We present a comprehensive overview of the wide range of techniques in
the two main branches of sense representation, i.e., unsupervised and
knowledge-based. Finally, this survey covers the main evaluation procedures and
applications for this type of representation, and provides an analysis of four
of its important aspects: interpretability, sense granularity, adaptability to
different domains and compositionality.Comment: 46 pages, 8 figures. Published in Journal of Artificial Intelligence
