Tough Tables: Carefully Evaluating Entity Linking for Tabular Data
Table annotation is a key task to improve querying the Web and support the Knowledge Graph population from legacy sources (tables). Last year, the SemTab challenge was introduced to unify different efforts to evaluate table annotation algorithms by providing a common interface and several general-purpose datasets as a ground truth. The SemTab dataset is useful to have a general understanding of how these algorithms work, and the organizers of the challenge included some artificial noise to the data to make the annotation trickier. However, it is hard to analyze specific aspects in an automatic way. For example, the ambiguity of names at the entity-level can largely affect the quality of the annotation. In this paper, we propose a novel dataset to complement the datasets proposed by SemTab. The dataset consists of a set of high-quality manually-curated tables with non-obviously linkable cells, i.e., where values are ambiguous names, typos, and misspelled entity names not appearing in the current version of the SemTab dataset. These challenges are particularly relevant for the ingestion of structured legacy sources into existing knowledge graphs. Evaluations run on this dataset show that ambiguity is a key problem for entity linking algorithms and encourage a promising direction for future work in the field

SemTab 2019: Resources to Benchmark Tabular Data to Knowledge Graph Matching Systems
Tabular data to Knowledge Graph matching is the process of assigning semantic tags from knowledge graphs (e.g., Wikidata or DBpedia) to the elements of a table. This task is a challenging problem for various reasons, including the lack of metadata (e.g., table and column names), the noisiness, heterogeneity, incompleteness and ambiguity in the data. The results of this task provide significant insights about potentially highly valuable tabular data, as recent works have shown, enabling a new family of data analytics and data science applications. Despite significant amount of work on various flavors of this problem, there is a lack of a common framework to conduct a systematic evaluation of state-of-the-art systems. The creation of the Semantic Web Challenge on Tabular Data to Knowledge Graph Matching (SemTab) aims at filling this gap. In this paper, we report about the datasets, infrastructure and lessons learned from the first edition of the SemTab challenge
Occurrence of coexisting dendrite morphologies: immiscible fluid displacement in an anisotropic radial hele-shaw cell under a high flow rate regime
Viscous fingering morphologies during the displacement of a high viscosity fluid by a low viscosity immiscible fluid in a radial fourfold anisotropic Hele-Shaw cell are examined. By using the kerosene-glycerin system for which the µ/T ratio (µ being the relative viscosity and T the interfacial tension between the fluids) is about ten times higher than that for the commonly used air-glycerin system, we have been able to access the hitherto unexplored Nca 1 regime (capillary number Nca=Uµ/T, U being the advancing fingertip velocity). Within the anisotropy-dominated regime, and when flow rates are significantly high (capillary number well beyond Nca=1), a new phase is seen to evolve wherein the dendrites grow simultaneously along the channels and along the directions making an angle of 45° with the channels, both being kinetically driven. This new phase resembles the one observed in a miscible fluid system at all flow rates of the displacing fluid
Viscous fingering of miscible fluids in an anisotropic radial hele-shaw cell: coexistence of kinetic and surface-tension dendrite morphology types and an exploration of small-scale influences
The evolution of viscous fingering morphology is examined for the case of a system of miscible fluids in an anisotropic radial Hele-Shaw cell. It is shown that dendritic morphologies similar to the kinetic and surface-tension morphology types coexist for this case. The critical role of the means of introducing anisotropy in the Hele-Shaw cell is established, and an explanation of the pattern behavior is offered on the basis of shape discontinuities of the individual elements of the lattice used to induce anisotropy. The ramifications of such an explanation are experimentally verified by demonstrating a clear difference in the morphology evolution in two halves of a single Hele-Shaw cell, one half of which contains square lattice elements, and the other half of which contains circular lattice elements
Variation in viscous fingering pattern morphology due to surfactant-mediated interfacial recognition events
The study of the formation of finger-like patterns during displacement of a viscous fluid by a less viscous one is of technological importance. The morphology of the viscous-finger patterns generated is a function of many parameters such as the flow rate, difference in viscosities of the two fluids and the interfacial tension. We demonstrate herein that the morphology of patterns formed during viscous fingering in a Hele-Shaw cell during displacement of paraffin oil by aqueous solutions of the surfactant sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), is extremely sensitive to interfacial tension variation brought about by complexation of divalent cations with the surfactant SDS. The variation in morphology of the patterns formed has been quantified by measuring the fractal dimensions of structures formed in a radial Hele-Shaw cell as well as the average finger width in a linear Hele-Shaw cell. This technique shows promise for studying other interfacial phenomena in chemistry such as biorecognition as well as dynamic processes occurring at interfaces
