Semantic aware RSS query algebra
2010
International audience; Existing XML query algebras are not fully appropriate to retrieve RSS news items mainly due to three reasons: 1) RSS is text rich and its content is dependent on the wording and verbification of the author, thus semantic aware operators are needed; 2) news items are dynamic and consequently time oriented retrieval is needed; 3) a news item may evolve through time, or overlap with other news items and hence identifying relationships between items is also needed. In this paper, we aim to solve these issues by providing a dedicated RSS algebra based on semantic-aware operators that consider RSS characteristics. The provided operators are application domain specific and …
Semantic oriented data structuration for MABS Application to BIM
2013
International audience; This paper presents a multiagent-based simulation approach to qualify the usage of buildings from the design phase. Our approach combines ontology and evolution process based on machine learning algorithms. The ontology relies on semantic data structures for the representation of environment components, agent knowledge and all data generated during the simulation.
SCALESEM : Evaluation of Semantic Graph based on Model Checking
2011
International audience; Semantic interoperability problems have found their solutions using languages and techniques from the Semantic Web. The proliferation of ontologies and meta-information has improved the understanding of information and the relevance of search engine responses. However, the construction of semantic graphs is a source of numerous errors of interpretation or modelling and scalability remains a major problem. The processing of large semantic graphs is a limit to the use of semantics in current information systems. The work presented in this paper is part of a new research at the border of two areas: the semantic web and the model checking. This line of research concerns …
RDF2SPIN: Mapping Semantic Graphs to SPIN Model Checker
2011
International audience; The most frequently used language to represent the semantic graphs is the RDF (W3C standard for meta-modeling). The construction of semantic graphs is a source of numerous errors of interpretation. The processing of large semantic graphs is a limit to the use of semantics in current information systems. The work presented in this paper is part of a new research at the border between two areas: the semantic web and the model checking. For this, we developed a tool, RDF2SPIN, which converts RDF graphs into SPIN language. This conversion aims checking the semantic graphs with the model checker SPIN in order to verify the consistency of the data. To illustrate our propos…

A new approach based on NμSMV Model to query semantic graph
2011
International audience; The language most frequently used to represent the semantic graphs is the RDF (W3C standard for meta-modeling). The construction of semantic graphs is a source of numerous errors of interpretation. Processing of large semantic graphs can be a limit to use semantics in modern information systems. The work presented in this paper is part of a new research at the border between two areas: the semantic web and the model checking. For this, we developed a tool, RDF2NμSMV, which converts RDF graphs into NμSMV language. This conversion aims checking the semantic graphs with the model checker NμSMV in order to verify the consistency of the data. The data integration and shar…
A Context-Based Adaptation In Mobile Learning
2013
International audience; Recent developments on mobile devices and wireless technologies enable new technical capabilities for the learning domain. Nowadays, learners are able to learn anywhere and at any time. The dynamic and continually changing learning setting in learner's mobile environment gives rise to many different learning contexts. The challenge in context-aware mobile learning is to develop an approach building the best learning content according to dynamic learning situations. This paper aims to develop an adaptive system based on the semantic modeling of the learning content and the learning context. The behavioral part of this approach is made up of rules and metaheuristics to…
The minerality of wine: which status for the lexeme in which situations ?
2014
International audience; This paper aims at discussing the meaning, the relevance, and the status of the lexeme minerality in consumers’ and wine professionals’ discourses within the French-speaking world. It takes as a starting point the obvious role played by such a lexeme in wine tasting notes, in prescriptive texts, and in the marketing sector. Following previous studies [1]-[2] that have shown the instability of the notion for many speakers —including wine professionals— the discussion will focus on the status of this so-called term for each target group.The study is based on the analysis of two sub-corpora collected through a questionnaire addressed on the one hand to consumers and on …
Know Beyond Seeing: Combining Computer Vision with Semantic Reasoning
2018
International audience; To date, computer vision systems are limited to extract the digital data of what the cameras "see". However, the meaning of what they observe could be greatly enhanced by considering the environment and common-sense knowledge. A new approach to combine computer vision with semantic modeling has been developed. This approach extracts the knowledge from images and uses it to perform real-time reasoning according to the contextual information, events of interest and logic rules. The reasoning with image knowledge allows protecting the privacy of the users, to overcome some problems of computer vision such as occlusion and missed detections and to offer services such as …
Bridging Sensing and Decision Making in Ambient Intelligence Environments
2009
Context-aware and Ambient Intelligence environments represent one of the emerging issues in the last decade. In such intelligent environments, information is gathered to provide, on one hand, autonomic and easy to manage applications, and, on the other, secured access controlled environments. Several approaches have been defined in the literature to describe context-aware application with techniques to capture and represent information related to a specified domain. However and to the best of our knowledge, none has questioned the reliability of the techniques used to extract meaningful knowledge needed for decision making especially if the information captured is of multimedia types (image…
