An Ontological Approach For Recommending A Feature Selection Algorithm, Aparna Nayak, Bojan Bozic, Luca Longo Jul 2022

An Ontological Approach For Recommending A Feature Selection Algorithm, Aparna Nayak, Bojan Bozic, Luca Longo

Conference papers

Feature selection plays an important role in machine learning or data mining problems. Removing irrelevant features increases model accuracy and reduces the computational cost. However, selecting important features is not a simple task as one feature selection algorithm does not perform well on all the datasets that are of interest. This paper tries to address the recommendation of a feature selection algorithm based on dataset characteristics and quality. The research uses three types of dataset characteristics along with data quality metrics. The main contribution of the work is the utilization of Semantic Web techniques to develop a novel system that …


Knowledge Management For Disparate Etruscan Cultural Heritage, John Mcauley, James Carswell Feb 2008

Knowledge Management For Disparate Etruscan Cultural Heritage, John Mcauley, James Carswell

Conference papers

This paper introduces the TARCHNA approach to managing and presenting contextualised heritage content. The system uses the CIDOC CRM ontology to consolidate a virtual repository of geographically disparate heritage databases and present a holistic view of a fragmented heritage. While previous approaches to presenting heritage collections have focused on the browse and search paradigm, the TARCHNA system uses narrative concepts as a means of presenting and re-using contextualised heritage artefacts within a broader cultural setting.


An Open Approach To Contextualising Heterogeneous Cultural Heritage Datasets, John Mcauley, James Carswell Apr 2007

An Open Approach To Contextualising Heterogeneous Cultural Heritage Datasets, John Mcauley, James Carswell

Conference papers

This paper describes a semantic museum application, which aims to present a holistic impression of the Etruscan civilisation. Through the use of a distributed computing paradigm and the CIDOC CRM ontology, the system presents a unified view of a fragmented heritage, while supporting browse and search at a semantic level. Within the cultural heritage world, however, much value is placed on ‘context’, both in describing and presenting heritage artefacts. From this perspective, a platform built upon the distributed search paradigm, although useful in many respects, does not convey how an artefact sits within a broader setting. Narrative concepts are proposed …
