Information Extraction from the Web - In today's web
•
0 likes•651 views
The document discusses the current state of the web and information extraction. It notes that the web currently consists of both a "web of humans" with user-generated content and social aspects, as well as a "web of machines" with programmatic APIs and services. However, these two webs currently interact only to a limited extent. The document advocates for smarter machines that can extract more useful information from the web to benefit both humans and other machines by helping tasks like job searches directly return relevant results rather than just pages containing job listings. Overall, the document frames information extraction as a step towards making machines smarter and able to better understand and utilize the vast amounts of data available on the web.

Nicolas Delaforge: Modeling the Web resource, extracting the context: stakes ...
This document discusses challenges with current bookmarking systems and proposes an enhanced bookmark called "Webmark" to address them. It notes that the web has evolved rapidly in a technology-driven way without clear definitions, making it difficult to design tools to help users orient themselves. It also observes that web references are unreliable due to dynamic content, URLs becoming obsolete, and the page-based model being insufficient. The document then hypothesizes that modeling web objects and reference types from a user perspective could help with orientation solutions, and proposes defining web pages as information mediums that interact rather than documents or memory extensions. It outlines different types of intentions in marking web resources and envisions Webmark providing dedicated services based on the marking kind.

Predicting Online Community Churners using Gaussian Sequences
The document discusses predicting churn, or users stopping use of an online community, using Gaussian sequence models. It defines churners and outlines predicting them by modeling how users' behaviors change over time periods within their lifecycle using measures like in-degree and term usage. Experimental results on four datasets show churners diverge from community norms more slowly over their lifecycle. The paper proposes representing each measure as a Gaussian sequence over a user's lifecycle periods and using these to differentiate churners from non-churners.

CILIP Conference - x metadata evolution the final mile - Richard Wallis
Bibliographic metadata forms have evolved over centuries, the last 50 years in machine readable formats. The library community appears to be evolving from records, towards describing real-world entities using an agreed form of linked data. Is that step a step far enough to satisfy the ever-present need to aid discovery? Discovery in the environment of the approaching twenty first century’s 3rd decade. Or do we need to include a move into the landscape of globally understood structured data and knowledge graphs? The millennial environment of answer engines, mobile/local search and voice assistants.

The semantic web
The document discusses the evolution of the World Wide Web towards a Semantic Web, where computers will be able to understand the meaning, context and relationships between data on web pages. It provides an example of how Semantic Web coding could link together different web pages about a professor by relating her faculty page, research, blog and staff listing. This creates a richer experience for users by making more information accessible in an interconnected way. The document then outlines some methods for implementing Semantic Web coding, such as using RDF triples or microformats, and provides examples of microformats being used on web pages.
DataEngConf: Building Satori, a Hadoop toll for Data Extraction at LinkedIn
By Nikolai Avteniev (Sr Software Engineer, LinkedIn)
LinkedIn is the professional profile of record for our 370M+ members globally, but many people don't realize the full potential of their LinkedIn profile – especially on mobile. Adding blogs, photos and other rich content to your profile on a small screen device can get tedious. That's why LinkedIn created Satori, a Hadoop tool that crawls the web and extracts data to discover members' professional content online. Satori uses machine learning techniques and leverages other open source tools like Nutch and Gobblin in order to help match members with relevant content in order to maximize their professional profile. In this talk, Nikolai will share his experience in building the product and discuss the challenges and opportunities encountered along the way.

This document summarizes a project that aims to enable ubiquitous learning through linking physical objects to online semantic data using semantic web and Internet of Things technologies. The project explores using a coffee machine as a use case where contextual information about the machine could be accessed by users. An initial implementation was developed using technologies like RDF, SPARQL and DBpedia to represent data about the coffee machine and link it to broader knowledge graphs. While initial challenges were faced, the project demonstrated potential for educational applications of linking real-world objects to online information networks. Further developments are needed to fully realize the vision of ubiquitous learning through semantic modeling and indexing of contextual data from physical objects.

A brief introduction has been also included on MICO (Media in Context) a European Union part-funded research project to provide cross-media analysis solutions for online multimedia producers.
Advance Frameworks for Hidden Web Retrieval Using Innovative Vision-Based Pag...
The document proposes an innovative vision-based page segmentation (IVBPS) algorithm to improve hidden web content extraction. It aims to overcome limitations of existing approaches that rely heavily on HTML structure. IVBPS extracts blocks from the visual representation of a page and clusters them to segment the page semantically. It uses layout features like position and appearance to locate data regions and extract records. The algorithm analyzes the entire page structure rather than local regions, allowing it to retain content DOM tree methods may discard. This is expected to significantly improve hidden web extraction performance.
Semantic Web: Explanation
The document discusses the evolution of the World Wide Web towards a Semantic Web, where machines can understand the meaning of information on the web. It describes how traditionally web pages existed independently without connections between them, but the Semantic Web aims to link related pages so search engines and browsers can more easily understand and expose the relationships between information. It provides an example of how a professor's faculty page, research page, blog, and staff listing could all be semantically linked to provide a richer experience for users.
Office 2010 cloud computing farhad_javidi
Web 2.0 is the second generation of Web development. It facilitates communication, secure information sharing, interoperability, and collaboration. Web 2.0 concepts have led to the evolution of Web-based communities, hosted services, and applications such as socialnetworking sites, video-sharing sites, wikis, blogs, and folksonomies. Web 2.0 enables users to run applications entirely in a Web browser. Users own the data on a Web 2.0 site and exercise control over that data. Web 2.0 sites, with their architecture of participation, encourage users to add value to the applications they use. This differs from traditional Web sites, which are solely for information retrieval and modifiable only by their owners.

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector.

“Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transfor...Edge AI and Vision Alliance
For the full video of this presentation, please visit: https://www.edge-ai-vision.com/2024/06/temporal-event-neural-networks-a-more-efficient-alternative-to-the-transformer-a-presentation-from-brainchip/
Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.Skybuffer SAM4U tool for SAP license adoption

Freshworks Rethinks NoSQL for Rapid Scaling & Cost-Efficiency
Freshworks creates AI-boosted business software that helps employees work more efficiently and effectively. Managing data across multiple RDBMS and NoSQL databases was already a challenge at their current scale. To prepare for 10X growth, they knew it was time to rethink their database strategy. Learn how they architected a solution that would simplify scaling while keeping costs under control.
Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
