초록

최근 문서나 웹 페이지뿐만 아니라 관계형 데이타나 XML 데이타, RDF 데이타 같은 구조화된 데이타에 대해서도 검색을 지원하고자 하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 RDF 데이타에 대한 효율적인 검색 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 먼저 RDF 데이타의 크기를 줄여 검색 성능을 높이고 검색 결과로 관련 있는 정보를 함께 반환해 주기 위해 RDF 데이타에서 관련 있는 노드와 에지를 묶어 새로운 RDF 그래프를 생성한다. 또한 검색 과정에서 검색의 결과를 정렬하기 위해 RDF 데이타 그래프의 노드와 예지에 키워드와의 연관도를 부여할 때, RDF 온톨로지 데이타의 특성을 활용함으로써 보다 사용자의 의도에 부합하는 검색 결과를 반환한다. 실제 RDF 데이타를 사용한 성능 비교 결과는 제안하는 기법이 RDF 데이타의 크기를 최대 2배까지 줄이고 기존 기법에 비해 검색 속도가 최대 5배 빠르다는 것을 보여준다.

Recently, there has been much work on supporting keyword search not only for text documents, but a]so for structured data such as relational data, XML data, and RDF data. In this paper, we propose an efficient keyword search method for RDF data. The proposed method first groups related nodes and edges in RDF data graphs to reduce data sizes for efficient keyword search and to allow relevant information to be returned together in the query answers. The proposed method also utilizes the semantics in RDF data to measure the relevancy of nodes and edges with respect to keywords for search result ranking. The experimental results based on real RDF data show that the proposed method reduces RDF data about in half and is at most 5 times faster than the previous methods.
