As the technologies advance, mobile peer-to-peer (MP2P) networks or systems become one of the major ways to share resources and information. On such a system, the information retrieval (IR), including the development of scalable infrastructures for indexing, becomes more complicated due to a huge increase on the amount of information and rapid information change. To keep the systems on MP2P networks more reliable and consistent, the index structures need to be updated frequently. For a semantic IR system, the index structure is even more complicated than a classic IR system and generally has higher update cost. The most well-known indexing technique used in semantic IR systems is Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI), of which the index structure is generated by singular value decomposition (SVD). Although LSI performs well, updating the index structure is not easy and time consuming. In an MP2P environment, which is fully distributed and dynamic, the update becomes more challenging. In this work, we consider how to update the sematic index generated by LSI and keep the index consistent in the whole MP2P network. The proposed Concept Space Update (CSU) protocol, based on distributed 2-Phase locking strategy, can effectively achieve the objectives in terms of two measurements: coverage speed and update cost. Using the proposed effective synchronization mechanism with the efficient updates on the SVD, re-computing the whole index on the P2P overlay can be avoided and the consistency can be achieved. Simulated experiments are also performed to validate our analysis on the proposed CSU protocol. The experimental results indicate that CSU is effective on updating the concept space with LSI/SVD index structure in MP2P semantic IR systems.

현재의 웹은 점점 늘어가는 데이터로 인해 효율적인 검색과 관리가 어려워지고 있다. 이를 타개하기 위한 방법으로 차세대 웹인 시맨틱 웹 기술이 개발되고 있으나, 기존에 사용되고 있는 검색엔진들은 시맨틱 웹 기술을 도입하지 않음에도 압도적인 국내 사용률을 독점하고 있다. 이로 인해 시맨틱 웹에 대한 개발은 더뎌지고 있으며, 검색엔진을 사용하는 사용자들 역시 시맨틱 웹의 사용을 꺼려하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 현재 사용되고 있는 웹과 차세대 웹을 비교분석하며, 시맨틱 웹 기술을 사용하는 검색엔진이 기존 웹 기술을 사용하는 검색엔진에 비해 사용률이 왜 낮고, 무엇 때문에 비효율적인지 연구하였으며, RDF 기반으로 시맨틱 웹을 설계하여 효율성을 높일 해결방법을 제시한다.

시맨틱 웹 서비스는 최근에 많은 연구가 수행되고 있는 시맨틱 웹 기술을 기반으로 웹 서비스를 지원하는 웹 기술이다. 지금까지 시맨틱 웹 서비스와 관련된 연구는 시맨틱 웹 문서 저장 기법과 시맨틱 질의 처리를 위한 추론 엔진 개발 둥에 많이 집중되어 왔다. 그러나 근본적으로 시맨틱 웹 서비스 환경을 지원하기 위해서는 사용자 혹은 에이전트가 시맨틱 정보를 질의할 수 있는 효과적인 질의 인터페이스의 제공이 필수적이다. 이에 관하여, 본 논문에서는 복잡한 시맨틱 정보에 대해 일반 사용자의 높은 질의 투명성을 제공하기 위한 시맨틱 질의 어댑터(SQA)를 제안한다. 먼저 BAML-S Profile의 요소를 분석하여 그래픽 기반의 절차적 사용자 질의 인터페이스를 설계한다. 그리고 사용자 인터페이스로 입력된 질의는 시맨틱 질의어인 RDQL로 변환하도록 구현하였다. 이때 RDQL 술어의 결합(disjunctive) 질의 문제를 해결하기 위한 시맨틱 질의어 다중 생성 프로세서를 제시한다.

Geospatial information, which is one of social overhead capital, is predicted as a core growing industry for the future. The production of geospatial information requires a huge budget, so it is very important objective of the policy for geospatial information to prevent the duplication of geospatial projects. In this paper, we proposed a semantic search system which extracts possible duplication of geospatial projects by using ontology for geospatial project administration. In order to achieve our goal, we suggested how to construct and utilize geospatial project ontology, and designed the architecture and process of the semantic search. Moreover, we showed how the suggested semantic search works with a duplicated projects search scenario. The suggested system enables a nonprofessional can easily search for duplicated projects, therefore we expect that our research contributes to effective and efficient duplication review process for geospatial projects.

Semantic-based information retrieval techniques understand the meanings of the concepts that users specify in their queries, but the traditional semantic matching methods based on the ontology tree have three weaknesses which may lead to many false matches, causing the falling precision. In order to improve the matching precision and the recall of the information retrieval, this paper proposes a multi-agent improved semantic similarity matching algorithm based on the ontology tree, which can avoid the considerable computation redundancies and mismatching during the entire matching process. The results of the experiments performed on our algorithm show improvements in precision and recall compared with the information retrieval techniques based on the traditional semantic similarity matching methods.

Community enterprise plays an important role for developing local business. Products from local communities apply local specialties such as high-quality materials and inherited wisdom. This work aims to support merchandises from local community enterprises by bringing out their specialties related to local wisdom and intangible cultural aspects. An ontology is applied to demonstrate the innate information regarding the implicit values of the products and is used as a core for a semantic search system. Details of the products are gathered from their respective community using an interview method and are extracted to align with the developed ontological schema. The semantic search system thus is implemented with a recommendation process for online accessibility for providing the organised information. From evaluation, the developed ontology and its instances are rated highly for their consistency, conciseness, and completeness. In usage, accuracy of the query and recommendation results are evaluated at 97.38% searching accuracy and 85.03% for recommending interesting products.

As evidenced through rapidly growing digital repositories and web resources, automatic metadata generation is becoming ever more critical, especially considering the costly and complex operation of manual metadata creation. Also, automatic metadata generation is apt to consistent metadata application. In this sense, metadata quality and interoperability can be enhanced by utilizing a mechanism for automatic metadata generation. In this article, a mechanism of automatic metadata extraction called ExMETA is introduced in order to alleviate issues dealing with inconsistent metadata application and semantic interoperability across ever-growing digital collections. Conceptual graph, one of formal languages that represent the meanings of natural language sentences, is utilized for ExMETA as a mediation mechanism that enhances the metadata quality by disambiguating semantic ambiguities caused by isolation of a metadata element and its corresponding definition from the relevant context. Hence, automatic metadata generation by using ExMETA can be a good way of enhancing metadata quality and semantic interoperability.

The Semantic Web technology, purporting to share, to reuse and to process by machines data stored in the Web environment, incessantly evolves to help human decision making; in particular, decision making based on data, or quantitative decision making. This trend drives researchers to fill the gap with strenuous efforts between the current state of the technology and the terminus of this evolution. The Semantic Web Constraint Language (SWCL) together with SWRL is one of these endeavors to achieve the goal. This paper focuses particularly on how to express the piecewise linear form in the context of SWCL. The importance of this ingredient can be fortified by the fact that any nonlinear expression can be approximated in the piecewise linear form. This paper will also provide the information of how it will work in the decision making process through an example of the Internet shopping mall problem.

This paper reports on the application of network analysis approaches to investigate the characteristics of graph representations of Japanese word associations. Two semantic networks are constructed from two separate Japanese word association databases. The basic statistical features of the networks indicate that they have scale-free and small-world properties and that they exhibit hierarchical organization. A graph clustering method is also applied to the networks with the objective of generating hierarchical structures within the semantic networks. The method is shown to be an efficient tool for analyzing large-scale structures within corpora. As a utilization of the network clustering results, we briefly introduce two web-based applications: the first is a search system that highlights various possible relations between words according to association type, while the second is to present the hierarchical architecture of a semantic network. The systems realize dynamic representations of network structures based on the relationships between words and concepts.

인터넷에는 다양하고 많은 정보들이 담겨져 있다. 이 많은 정보들 중에서 사용자가 정말로 필요로 하는 정보를 기계로 추출해 내기 위해서 시맨틱 웹이라는 기술이 제안 되었다. 시맨틱 웹의 구현을 위해서는 기계가 해석할수 있는 데이터들이 필요한데 이것은 시맨틱 어노테이션을 통해서 얻어낼수 있다. 대부분의 시맨틱 어노테이션 시스템들은 영어로 작성된 문서들에 포커스를 두고 개발되었다. 한국어와 같은 교착어를 처리할수 있는 시스템들은 드물다. 본 논문에서는 시맨틱 어노테이션에 대해서 자세히 설명하고 한국어 시맨틱 어노테이션 시스템을 개발하는데에 어떤 언어적인 특징을 고려해야 하는지 살펴본다. 그리고 국외에서 개발된 한국어 시맨틱 어노테이션 시스템 EXCOM을 예제로 소개하겠다.
