Selection From Bibliographic Resources of an Analytical Method for Cosmetic Products

2018

Abstract This chapter is focussed on a general strategy to select an appropriate method from the scientific literature to solve an analytical problem in cosmetic analysis using useful and flexible web tools. A short introduction on the use of ScienceDirect (Elsevier), Scopus (Elsevier), SciFinder Scholar (American Chemical Society), Web of Science (Thomson Reuters) and the freely available Google Scholar is given. The main analytical features to be considered in the selection of the method, such as limit of detection, limit of quantification, linearity, precision (repeatability, intermediate precision and reproducibility), selectivity, robustness and accuracy, are briefly described. Additio…

Modeling and querying facts with period timestamps in data warehouses

2019

Abstract In this paper, we study various ways of representing and querying fact data that are time-stamped with a time period in a data warehouse. The main focus is on how to represent the time periods that are associated with the facts in order to support convenient and efficient aggregations over time. We propose three distinct logical models that represent time periods as sets of all time points in a period (instant model), as pairs of start and end time points of a period (period model), and as atomic units that are explicitly stored in a new period dimension (period∗ model). The period dimension is enriched with information about the days of each period, thereby combining the former tw…

Text Extraction from Scrolling News Tickers

2020

While a lot of work exists on text or keyword extraction from videos, not a lot can be found on the exact problem of extracting continuous text from scrolling tickers. In this work a novel Tesseract OCR based pipeline is proposed for location and continuous text extraction from scrolling tickers in videos. The solution worked faster than real time, and achieved a character accuracy of 97.3% on 45 min of manually transcribed 360p videos of popular Latvian news shows.

The Use of the Recommended Learning Path in the Personalized Adaptive E-Learning System

2020

This paper promotes the idea of the learning process management in the e-learning system. A personalized adaptive e-learning system is used in this research that comprises three developed topic acquisition sequences: teacher, learner or optimal topic sequences. The learner has the ability to switch between the aforementioned topic sequences. The system stores data about the course acquisition process. The analysis of the stored data demonstrated that a bit more than half of the students used the teacher topic sequence; higher grades in topics got those students who chose the learner or optimal topic sequence; the grades of the half of the students who used the optimal and teacher topic sequ…

Export of Relational Databases to RDF Databases: A Case Study

2010

The vast amount of business information nowadays is stored in relational databases. For the Semantic Web vision to become a reality, we need ways how to exploit this data in form of RDF triples. The universal and commonly accepted solution for this problem still does not exist. In most cases, mapping languages are used for specification of correspondences between OWL ontology and DB schema. At the same time, these languages generally are not well suited for specification of mappings in cases when there is a substantial difference between OWL ontology and DB schema. In this paper, we describe a new model transformation-based method for specification of correspondences between the elements of…

Faceted Search Over RDF-Based Knowledge Graphs

2016

Knowledge graphs such as Yago and Freebase have become a powerful asset for enhancing search, and are being intensively used in both academia and industry. Many existing knowledge graphs are either available as Linked Open Data, or they can be exported as RDF datasets enhanced with background knowledge in the form of an OWL 2 ontology. Faceted search is the de facto approach for exploratory search in many online applications, and has been recently proposed as a suitable paradigm for querying RDF repositories. In this paper, we provide rigorous theoretical underpinnings for faceted search in the context of RDFbased knowledge graphs enhanced with OWL 2 ontologies. We identify well-defined fra…

Ontology-Guided Approach to Feature-Based Opinion Mining

2011

The boom of the Social Web has had a tremendous impact on a number of different research topics. In particular, the possibility to extract various kinds of added-value, informational elements from users' opinions has attracted researchers from the information retrieval and computational linguistics fields. However, current approaches to socalled opinion mining suffer from a series of drawbacks. In this paper we propose an innovative methodology for opinion mining that brings together traditional natural language processing techniques with sentimental analysis processes and Semantic Web technologies. The main goals of this methodology is to improve feature-based opinion mining by employing o…

The Anatomy of an Optical Biopsy Semantic Retrieval System

2012

A case-based computer-aided diagnosis system assists physicians and other medical personnel in the interpretation of optical biopsies obtained through confocal laser endomicroscopy. Extraction in CLE images shows promising results on inferring semantic metadata from low-level features. In order to effectively ensure the interoperability with potential third-party applications, the system provides an interface compliant with the recent standards ISO/IEC 15938-12:2008 (MPEG Query Format) and ISO/IEC 24800 (JPEG Search).
