@article{jws2006Semantic, abstract = {SemanticWeb Mining aims at combining the two fast-developing research areas SemanticWeb andWeb Mining. This survey analyzes the convergence of trends from both areas: an increasing number of researchers is working on improving the results ofWeb Mining by exploiting semantic structures in theWeb, and they make use ofWeb Mining techniques for building the Semantic Web. Last but not least, these techniques can be used for mining the Semantic Web itself. The Semantic Web is the second-generation WWW, enriched by machine-processable information which supports the user in his tasks. Given the enormous size even of today’s Web, it is impossible to manually enrich all of these resources. Therefore, automated schemes for learning the relevant information are increasingly being used. Web Mining aims at discovering insights about the meaning of Web resources and their usage. Given the primarily syntactical nature of the data being mined, the discovery of meaning is impossible based on these data only. Therefore, formalizations of the semantics of Web sites and navigation behavior are becoming more and more common. Furthermore, mining the Semantic Web itself is another upcoming application. We argue that the two areas Web Mining and Semantic Web need each other to fulfill their goals, but that the full potential of this convergence is not yet realized. This paper gives an overview of where the two areas meet today, and sketches ways of how a closer integration could be profitable.}, author = {Stumme, Gerd and Hotho, Andreas and Berendt, Bettina}, interhash = {3fd4efcf649ab35e8ef001f19b7ff83c}, intrahash = {9937253e6b2591267a0596fa597a4b96}, journal = {Journal of Web Semantics}, number = 2, pages = {124-143}, publisher = {Elsevier}, title = {Semantic Web Mining - State of the Art and Future Directions}, url = {http://www.kde.cs.uni-kassel.de/stumme/papers/2006/stumme2006semantic.pdf}, volume = 4, year = 2006 } @inproceedings{hoser2006semantic, abstract = {A key argument for modeling knowledge in ontologies is the easy re-use and re-engineering of the knowledge. However, beside consistency checking, current ontology engineering tools provide only basic functionalities for analyzing ontologies. Since ontologies can be considered as (labeled, directed) graphs, graph analysis techniques are a suitable answer for this need. Graph analysis has been performed by sociologists for over 60 years, and resulted in the vivid research area of Social Network Analysis (SNA). While social network structures in general currently receive high attention in the Semantic Web community, there are only very few SNA applications up to now, and virtually none for analyzing the structure of ontologies. We illustrate in this paper the benefits of applying SNA to ontologies and the Semantic Web, and discuss which research topics arise on the edge between the two areas. In particular, we discuss how different notions of centrality describe the core content and structure of an ontology. From the rather simple notion of degree centrality over betweenness centrality to the more complex eigenvector centrality based on Hermitian matrices, we illustrate the insights these measures provide on two ontologies, which are different in purpose, scope, and size.}, address = {Heidelberg}, author = {Hoser, Bettina and Hotho, Andreas and Jäschke, Robert and Schmitz, Christoph and Stumme, Gerd}, booktitle = {The Semantic Web: Research and Applications}, editor = {Sure, York and Domingue, John}, interhash = {344ec3b4ee8af1a2c6b86efc14917fa9}, intrahash = {c0cdbeab23ce0fc1bff5e02c99aab012}, month = {June}, pages = {514-529}, publisher = {Springer}, series = {LNAI}, title = {Semantic Network Analysis of Ontologies}, url = {http://www.kde.cs.uni-kassel.de/stumme/papers/2006/hoser2006semantic.pdf}, volume = 4011, year = 2006 } @proceedings{alani2006proceedings, editor = {Alani, Harith and Hoser, Bettina and Schmitz, Christoph and Stumme, Gerd}, interhash = {e991143409a8f4acb9eabfe08a38e387}, intrahash = {786a452a14c5189d82dc56f16cc2a266}, title = {Proceedings of the 2nd Workshop on Semantic Network Analysis}, url = {http://www.kde.cs.uni-kassel.de/ws/sna2006/}, year = 2006 } @inproceedings{schmitz2006mining, abstract = {Social bookmark tools are rapidly emerging on the Web.
