The current web is a web of linked pages. Frustrated users search for facts by guessing which keywords or keyword phrases might lead them to pages where they can find facts. Can we make it possible for users to search directly for facts embedded in web pages? Instead of a web of human-readable pages containing machine-inaccessible facts, can the web be a web of machine-accessible facts superimposed...
Valuable local information is often available on the web, but encoded in a foreign language that non-local users do not understand. Can we create a system to allow a user to query in language L1 for facts in a web page written in language L2? We propose a suite of multilingual extraction ontologies as a solution to this problem. We ground extraction ontologies in each language...
Most computer software available today -- although capable of processing text, numbers and other symbols -- cannot process meaning or nuances as we people do. One such case, which is the focus of this work, is the processing of number-rich documents, such as receipts to fulfill business-specific constraints. This task currently is labor intensive in the sense that we manually analyze the receipts...
In this paper, we introduce an academic support system with a participative architecture, which attempts to overcome the cultural hierarchical barriers that prevent communication, collaboration and exchange of academic materials in Japanese institutions of higher learning among undergraduates, graduates and faculty. This system, which we dubbed AcadeMix Juice, promotes participative interactions among...
A semantic Wiki is a collaborative semantic Web authoring system based on the Wiki framework. It provides a scheme where anonymous users on the Internet can collaborate with each other to build a semantic Web site. Contrasting to traditional Wikis, it is not easy for end users to author semantic Wiki pages from scratch without knowledge of the complex RDF/OWL syntax and of ontologies to share semantic...
In order to realize automated knowledge acquisition, we have to solve many problems such as lack of reusability and sharability of knowledge, which is one of the shortcomings in the current knowledge base technology, to fill the conceptual gap between the computer and domain experts and so on. Recent research activities in knowledge acquisition community are focused on task ontology, because it is...
