EUCLID Module 3: The Production of Linked Data
This event took place on Monday 22 April 2013 at 14:00

 
Dr Barry Norton Solutions Architect, Ontotext


The third EUCLID webinar will cover the whole spectrum of Linked Data production and exposure. After a grounding in the Linked Data principles and best practice, with special emphasis on the VoID vocabulary, we will cover R2RML, operating on relational databases, Open Refine, operating on spreadsheets, and GATECloud, operating on natural language. Finally we will cover means to increase interlinkage between datasets, especially the use of tools like Silk.

Multimedia and Information Systems
Our research is centred around the theme of Multimedia Information Retrieval, ie, Video Search Engines, Image Databases, Spoken Document Retrieval, Music Retrieval, Query Languages and Query Mediation.

We focus on content-based information retrieval over a wide range of data spanning form unstructured text and unlabelled images over spoken documents and music to videos. This encompasses the modelling of human perception of relevance and similarity, the learning from user actions and the up-to-date presentation of information. Currently we are building a research version of an integrated multimedia information retrieval system MIR to be used as a research prototype. We aim for a system that understands the user's information need and successfully links it to the appropriate information sources, be it a report or a TV news clip. This work is guided by the vision that an automated knowledge extraction system ultimately empowers people making efficient use of information sources without the burden of filing data into specialised databases.
