                            Semantic Relation and its application in Information Science

    Semantic Relation and its application in information science

 

Of late, then interest of many researchers is to examine the nature Free Add On semantic relations and their main application in the information science. Concepts (language) and relations (text) provide the foundation of knowledge and thought. When we look at the world, we perceive not only a mass of colors but also objects that automatically assign categories labels. Our perception system automatically segments the world into concepts and the Categories. Language is used not for the sake of communicating the concepts and the relations, but also employed to represent, store and reason with concepts and relation. Research and development in information science have focused on concepts and terms with increasing emphasis in identification, processing, management of the relation to achieve greater effectiveness and refinement in information science techniques.  

This seminar presents:

(i)                  an overview of the semantic relation used in the knowledge structure such as thesauri and Ontologies,

(ii)                main techniques used in the automatic extraction of the semantic relations from text, and

(iii)               the use of semantic relation in the information extraction, information retrieval, question-answering, and automatic text summarization.

    During a workshop, UNESCO' Internatinal Developed Data Analysis and Management Software(IDAMS) was demonstrated as a possible solution for needs in terms of software for data collection and management and, in particular, to the development of a "generic model" for the collection, application and sharing of migration data. It would allow an emergine approch with focus on national ownership and capacity-building through UNESCO's expertise in conntributing to the production of sophisticated, multilinguel and advanced information processing tools, which are provided free-of-charge, upen request. It is available in English, French and Spanish. Arabic and Russion version are expected to be released shortly. The Greenstone Digital Library software was also demonstrated . Its powerful searching facilities and structured access method serve as a tool to build large collection of documents which can then be published either on CD-ROM or on the Web.

    Sugunasri Maddala's Column - "Many eyes"


    PEOPLE share their videos on YouTube and their photos at Flickr. Now they can share more technical types of displays: graphs, charts and other visuals they create to help them analyze data buried in spreadsheets, tables or text.

    At an experimental Web site, Many Eyes, (http://www.many-eyes.com/), users can upload the data they want to visualize, then try sophisticated tools to generate interactive displays. These might range from maps of relationships in the New Testament to a display of the comparative frequency of words used in speeches by Senators Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama.

    The site was created by scientists at the Watson Research Center of I.B.M. in Cambridge, Mass., to help people publish and discuss graphics in a group. Those who register at the site can comment on one another’s work, perhaps visualizing the same information with different tools and discovering unexpected patterns in the data.


    Ben Shneiderman, a professor in the computer science department at the University of Maryland, College Park, and a pioneer in information visualization, says sites like Many Eyes are helping to democratize the tools of visualization. “The gift of the Internet is that everyone can participate, and the tools can be brought to a much wider audience,” he said.


    Presenting results in a static spreadsheet or table may do the job. “But sometimes it’s like driving with your eyes closed,” he said. “With visualization, it might be possible to open your eyes and see something that will help you” — for instance, patterns, clusters, gaps or outliers in the data.


    “The great fun of information visualization,” he said, “is that it gives you answers to questions you didn’t know you had.”




    Data can be organized many ways on Many Eyes. Above is a chart of Olympic medals.

    Note: This is an excerpt from http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/31/technology/31novel.html?_r=1&oref=slogin



    Published: August 30, 2008

    I read about this earlier, perhaps in newspaper. But, before trying it for myself, or forget about it before doing anything with it, I thought of sharing it with our community. Some of us may try it. Visualization may help to make our point more clear and may help many a librarian convince their directors and users.

    It is my privilege and my responsibility to introduce Ms. Sandhya Gir, Senior Library Officer, ICRISAT (Patancheru 502324 Andhra PradeshIndia email : s.gir@cgiar.org ) to our LIS community. She has put in over 30 years of steady service in ICRISAT and has been the pillar post for Library services in ICRISAT, when all others including me left the Library in search of greener and/or easier jobs.

    We always see her like this and even this photograph is taken by our colleague Mr. David without her knowledge.

    She has a very rich experience in handling serials management. She can be contacted for getting a practical insight into the intricacies and idiosyncrasies of Serials management.

    I am going to introduce to our ILI community, Ms.Sandhya, the silent, shy and senior serials librarian shortly.!!

    Dear Mr. Devrai,
    Greetings and good wishes!

    I am going to introduce to our ILI community, Ms. Sandhya, the silent, shy and senior serials librarian - shortly. Whole of last week we were busy with our co-ordinator from FAO.Pl. have a look at this link.

    http://www.arboretum.org.in/

    Do you personally know Mr. Prafulla Chandra who is in this project?I contacted him via e-mail and I got a response. Beyond this I don't want to disturb him now. I came to know about this when I mentioned to Srinivasachary, (another friend of mine who works in Manage) that I am interested only in growing a few trees and preach only that to people.Their tag line - ...at peace in the lap of nature ... gave me instant peace.I know that a single tree in our own garden gives more peace than 1000 trees in an arboretum. But we have to work - for money!!! Then is it better to work in an arboretum?I nurture one more `dream lifestyle' in the context of this arboretum. But after I hear more from you about this venture and people concerning it.

    Thanks for your encouragement and support. Your ILI blog is encouraging and supporting many people like me.Waiting to hear more from you about this project,

    Searching for Information
