Contribution of Semantic Web on Customer Relationship Management in E-Tourism
International audience; This paper presents an ongoing research on the development of a customer relationship management in e-tourism. Based both on techniques of the Semantic Web and Adaptive Hypermedia Systems, this paper presents a solution for dynamic adaptation of the offer to customers according to semantic criteria characterizing the Internet. A case study about tourism in Côte d'Or department in Burgundy is presented.
A Semantic analysis of moving objects, using as a case study maritime voyages from eighteenth and nineteenth centuries
International audience; In this paper, we present a spatial model designed to extract knowledge from the tracks of moving objects. The model uses a perdurantism approach, implemented using Semantic Web technologies. In order to show the capabilities of the model, we employ it to handle a large dataset composed of historic maritime records. By using Semantic Web tools, we are able to implement rules and identify user defined patterns. Although there are limitations due to currently available tools, our results are promising.

Towards Dynamic Ontology - Integrating Tools of Evolution and Versionning in Ontology
6; International audience; Since Gruber's definition, a lot of works focused on evolution or versioning issues. Not much attention has been paid to integrated solutions which resolve both these two purposes. In this paper we present a new semantic architecture that combines versioning tools with the evolution process. This architecture called VersionGraph is integrated in the source ontology since its creation in order to make it possible to evolve and to be versioned.
Semantic-based Technique for the Automation the 3D Reconstruction Process
Pages: 191 to 198, ISBN: 978-1-61208-104-5; International audience; The reconstruction of 3D objects based on point clouds data presents a major task in many application field since it consumes time and require human interactions to yield a promising result. Robust and quick methods for complete object extraction or identification are still an ongoing research topic and suffer from the complex structure of the data, which cannot be sufficiently modeled by purely numerical strategies. Our work aims at defining a new way of automatically and intelligently processing of 3D point clouds from a 3D laser scanner. This processing is based on the combination of 3D processing technologies and Semant…
TourismKM: a new Web Semantic based approach for E-Tourism
International audience; Since 1970, technology innovations transformed radically the tourism processes and strategies, essentially with the Internet apparition. Nowadays, E-Tourism systems are well implanted into the Internet, with a lot of offers and online possibilities (reservations, virtual visit, etc.). Nevertheless, with the great evolution of the Internet, users' needs and attends changed too, they are now looking for more personalized and adapted contents. Here is the lack of the most E-Tourism systems, they are not, or a little, user centered. Based both on techniques of the Semantic Web and Adaptive Hypermedia Systems, this paper presents a solution for dynamic adaptation of the o…
HiGeoMes: Distributed Geodatabases in an archaeological joint research project
International audience; The project 'HiGeoMes' seeks to connect knowledge about archaeological sites in the Near East with place names in ancient sources of the 2nd millennium BC. The paper describes the digital approach to integrate textual and geographical information by emphasizing the impact of interfaces linking diverse datasets. Several OGC-based Web services provide reviewed archaeological information in a Web GIS with query capabilities. Place-related philological data are stored in an OWL-store to model the topological relations of unidentified sites. An interface integrates a graph-viewer with the Web GIS by invoking both WFS- and REST-services to spatially integrate the datasets.…
Using Semantic Web Technologies to Follow the Evolution of Entities in Time and Space
International audience; In this paper we present the "continuum model". Our work follows a "perdurantism" approach and is designed to handle dynamic phenomena extending the 4D-fluent with the use of semantic web technologies. In our approach we represent dynamic entities as constituted by timeslices each with semantic, geometric, temporal and identity components. Our model is able to link the diverse representations of an entity and allows the inference of qualitative information from quantitative one. The inference results are later added to the ontology in order to improve knowledge about the phenomenon. The model has been implemented using OWL and SWRL. Our preliminary results are promis…
un modèle sémantique spatio-temporel pour capturer la dynamique des environnements
National audience; Les Systèmes d'Information Géographique se sont peu à peu imposés comme des outils performants pour organiser, représenter, analyser et visualiser des données géographiques. Toutefois, l'intégration d'une dimension temporelle dans les SIG reste un défi de la recherche en sciences de l'information géographique. Dès lors, le développement de modèles spatio-temporels adaptés à l'étude de phénomènes géographiques réels devient un enjeu majeur dans la conception de systèmes d'informations dédiés à l'évolution d'entités spatiales. Dans ces travaux, nous proposons un nouveau modèle spatio-temporel basé sur une ontologie intégrant les connaissances des experts sur les données géo…
Spatial Rules through Spatial Rule built-ins in SWRL
International audience; The paper presents a method to include spatial rule within rule languages like SWRL to infer spatial rules within semantic web framework. The concept presented here could benefit both geospatial community as they benefit using the adjusted knowledge base to infer spatial rule and semantic web community as the inclusion of spatial data in its framework
ArchaeoKM: Managing Archaeological data through Archaeological Knowledge
International audience; Nowadays, the use of ontologies in the field of the archaeology is a new direction of research that is not fully tested. Some results are very encouraging and challenge the vision of archaeological sites which cannot be modeled semantically. Most of the re-searches based on ontology technologies in the arc-haeology domain are based on the research of finding on a common ground for the interoperability and the integration of data. Papers like (LANG 2009), (KOLLIAS 2008) cover these research. The project ArchaeoKM is a shift from such researches. It focus-es on using the knowledge possessed by the archaeo-logists to model the data of an archaeological project, and to d…
AN ONTOLOGY-BASED APPROACH TO PROVIDE PERSONNALIZED RECOMMENDATIONS USING A STOCHASTIC ALGORITHM
International audience; The use of personalized recommender systems to assist users in the selection of products is becoming more and more popular and wide-spread. The purpose of a recommender system is to provide the most suitable items from an knowledge base, according the user knowledge, tastes, interests, ... These items are generally proposed as ordered lists. In this article, we propose to combine works from adaptive hypermedia systems, semantic web and combinatory to create a new kind of recommender systems suggesting combinations of items corresponding to the user.
Managing semantics knowledge for 3D architectural reconstruction
International audience; this work aims at bound geometrical detection of 3D objects from a point cloud using semantic descriptors to improve reusability of architectural building reconstruction and aid automatic reasoning in building information modeling (BIM). Based on exploring cognitive origins of spatial semantics representations, semantics conceptualization and classification is proposed for formal management of 3D architectural objects. The knowledge classification composes definition, partial knowledge and ambiguous knowledge, and is formalized with transformations among closed world assumption (CWA) and open world assumption (OWA). Systemic case study is conducted on a simplified bu…
Knowledge Base Approach for 3D Objects Detection in Point Clouds Using 3D Processing and Specialists Knowledge
This paper presents a knowledge-based detection of objects approach using the OWL ontology language, the Semantic Web Rule Language, and 3D processing built-ins aiming at combining geometrical analysis of 3D point clouds and specialist's knowledge. Here, we share our experience regarding the creation of 3D semantic facility model out of unorganized 3D point clouds. Thus, a knowledge-based detection approach of objects using the OWL ontology language is presented. This knowledge is used to define SWRL detection rules. In addition, the combination of 3D processing built-ins and topological Built-Ins in SWRL rules allows a more flexible and intelligent detection, and the annotation of objects …
