The path to success: A study of user behaviour and success criteria in online communities
(ACM, 2017-08-23)Maintaining online communities is vital in order to increase and retain their economic and social value. That is why community managers look to gauge the success of their communities by measuring a variety of user behaviour, ... -
The role of open data in driving sustainable mobility in nine smart cities
(Association for Information Systems, 2017-06-05)In today’s era of globalization, sustainable mobility is considered as a key factor in the economic growth of any country. With the emergence of open data initiatives, there is tremendous potential to improve mobility. ... -
Non-partitioning merge-sort: Performance enhancement by elimination of division in divide-and-conquer algorithm
(ACM, 2016-03-04)The importance of a high performance sorting algorithm with low time complexity cannot be over stated. Several benchmark algorithms viz. Bubble Sort, Insertion Sort, Quick Sort, and Merge Sort, etc. have tried to achieve ... -
Analysing and improving embedded markup of learning resources on the web
(ACM, 2017-04-03)Web-scale reuse and interoperability of learning resources have been major concerns for the technology-enhanced learning community. While work in this area traditionally focused on learning resource metadata, provided ... -
Unsupervised learning for understanding student achievement in a distance learning setting
(IEEE, 2017-04-25)Many factors could affect the achievement of students in distance learning settings. Internal factors such as age, gender, previous education level and engagement in online learning activities can play an important role ... -
Measuring accuracy of triples in knowledge graphs
(Springer, 2017-06-19)An increasing amount of large-scale knowledge graphs have been constructed in recent years. Those graphs are often created from text-based extraction, which could be very noisy. So far, cleaning knowledge graphs are ... -
Challenges with image event processing: Poster
(ACM, 2017-06-19)There has been substantial research in the area of event processing where systems are focused on event processing of structured data. However, in the context of smart cities, signi cant number of realtime applications ... -
Classifying sentential modality in legal language: A use case in financial regulations, acts and directives
(ACM, 2017-06-12)Texts expressed in legal language are often di cult and time consuming for lawyers to read through, particularly for the purpose of identifying relevant deontic modalities (obligations, prohibitions and permissions). ... -
Using drug similarities for discovery of possible adverse reactions
(AMIA, 2017-02-10)We propose a new computational method for discovery of possible adverse drug reactions. The method consists of two key steps. First we use openly available resources to semi-automatically compile a consolidated data set ... -
Grand challenge: Automatic anomaly detection over sliding windows
(Association for Computing Machinery ACM, 2017-06-19)With the advances in the Internet of Things and rapid generation of vast amounts of data, there is an ever growing need for leveraging and evaluating event-based systems as a basis for building realtime data analytics ... -
Mining cardinalities from knowledge bases
(Springer Verlag, 2017-08-01)Cardinality is an important structural aspect of data that has not received enough attention in the context of RDF knowledge bases (KBs). Information about cardinalities can be useful for data users and knowledge engineers ... -
Tell me who are your friends, and I’ll tell you who you are
(AICS 2016, 2016-09-20)Mentions of politicians in news articles can reflect politician interactions on their daily activities. In this work, we present a mathematical model to represent such interactions as a graph, and we use it to predict the ... -
On developing extraction rules for mining informal scientific references from Altmetric data sources
(Springer Verlag, 2015-06-04)Altmetrics measure scientific impact outside of traditional scientific literature. We identify mentions of scientific research or entities like researchers, academic or research organizations in a corpus containing blogs, ... -
Identifying equivalent relation paths in knowledge graphs
(Springer Verlag, 2017-06-19)Relation paths are sequences of relations with inverse that allow for complete exploration of knowledge graphs in a two-way unconstrained manner. They are powerful enough to encode complex relationships between entities ... -
XPLODIV: An exploitation-exploration aware diversification approach for Recommender Systems
(AAAI Press, 2015-07)Recommender Systems (RS) have emerged to guide users in the task of efficiently browsing/exploring a large product space, helping users to quickly identify interesting products. However, suggestions generated with traditional ... -
Separating the wheat from the chaff: Evaluating success determinants for online Q&A communities
(NUI Galway, 2017-05-15)Researchers and community managers try to measure the success of online communities using a variety of success determinants, such as member activity, turnover and interaction. Although many success determinants have been ... -
SPORTAL: Searching for Public SPARQL Endpoints
(NUI Galway, 2016-10)There are hundreds of SPARQL endpoints on the Web, but finding an endpoint relevant to a client s needs is difficult: each endpoint acts like a black box, often without a description of its content. Herein we briefly ... -
SemanTex: semantic text exploration using document links implied by conceptual networks extracted from the texts
(ACMCEUR-WS.org, 2014)Despite of advances in digital document processing, exploration of implicit relationships within large amounts of textual resources can still be daunting. This is partly due to the ‘black-box’ nature of most current ... -
Using linked data to mine RDF from wikipedia's tables
(ACM, 2014)The tables embedded in Wikipedia articles contain rich, semi-structured encyclopaedic content. However, the cumulative content of these tables cannot be queried against. We thus propose methods to recover the semantics of ... -
Validation of expressive XML keys with XML schema and XQuery
(ACS, 2015)The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is the defacto industry standard for exchanging data on the Web and elsewhere. While the relational model of data enjoys a well-accepted definition of a key, several competing notions ...
