Abstract: This article presents the framework that incorporates two modern trends in data publishing: Linked Open Data technologies and spatial data publishing technologies. The framework includes components for semantic data publishing from relational data sources, data integration and link generation. The SPARQL query answering algorithm that utilizes generated linksets is introduced. This article also presents the Protected Sites ontology for Linked Open Data Space, which follows INSPIRE recommendations and involves common RDF vocabularies.

Abstract: This review discusses methods and algorithms for increasing linked data expressiveness which are prepared for Web publication. The main approaches to the enrichment of ontologies are considered, the methods on which they are based and the tools for implementing the corresponding methods are described.The main stage in the general scheme of the related data life cycle in a cloud of Linked Open Data is the stage of building a set of related RDF- triples. To improve the classification of data and the analysis of their quality, various methods are used to increase the expressiveness of related data. The main ideas of these methods are concerned with the enrichment of existing ontologies (an expansion of the basic scheme of knowledge) by adding or improving terminological axioms. Enrichment methods are based on methods used in various fields, such as knowledge representation, machine learning, statistics, natural language processing, analysis of formal concepts, and game theory.

Abstract: Due to the fast development of Semantic Web and its new branch of Linked Open Data, large amounts of structured information on various scientific areas become available. Digital libraries, information systems and portals based on ontologies are the most reliable sources of this information that need careful investigation in order to optimize science management. A generally accepted way to facilitate understanding of such large and complex data sets is graph visualization. This paper is devoted to newly developed visualization algorithms of co-authorship and citation networks extracted from information portals and digital libraries of the Linked Open Data cloud.

Abstract:

This paper focuses on the use of a linguistics-based method for automatic object-oriented sentiment analyses. The study was conducted as part of SentiRuEval automatic sentiment analysis system testing cycle. The original task was to extract users’ opinions (positive, negative, neutral) about telecom companies, expressed in tweets and news. In this study news was excluded from the dataset because, being formal texts, news significantly differs from informal ones in its structure and vocabulary and therefore demands a different approach. Only linguistic approach based on syntactic and semantic analysis was used. In this approach, a sentiment-bearing word or expression is linked to its target object at either of two stages, which perform successively. The first stage includes usage of semantic templates matching the dependence tree, and the second stage involves heuristics for linking sentiment expressions and their target objects when syntactic relations between them do not exist. No machine learning was used. The method showed a very high quality, which roughly coincides with the best results of machine learning methods and hybrid approaches.
