Web Mining to Create Semantic Content: A Case Study for the Environment
0 likes447 views
This document discusses using web mining techniques to create semantic content from environmental web data sources. It introduces concepts like web mining, the semantic web, and ecoinformatics. It describes related projects that use semantic information and focuses on mining the Encyclopedia of Earth. The proposed concept involves hierarchical clustering of mined data. Future work includes demos and integrating with semantic frameworks. The authors believe it is necessary to create semantic environmental content to assist in areas like preventing fires and pollution.

- 10. Is it really necessairy? In our opinion, yes! Because 1. it’s another brick in the wall of the so called “smart web" 2. it can potentially assist in the prevention of fire break out, pollution . . . 3. it could be used in other scientific or commercial fields (tourism, agriculture, weather forecasting. . . ) “. . . there is a continuous draught during the past years.

- 11. Future Work and Challenges It’s still work in progress. Demos for future results. Keep an eye on the web for new (better?) data sources. Integration with existing semantic frameworks (Open Linked Data?). . . . . . . G. Theocharopoulou, K. Giannakis Web Mining to Create Semantic Content
