Conversion of Unstructured Flow Diagrams to Structured Form

Formalization of Unstructured Content to Semantic Form

This paper will present an approach for knowledge extraction from unstructured content. Unstructured content refers to information syndicated online, with little structure. The information extracted from these content sources is semantically tagged and stored in the form of semantic graphs. The approach is upgraded with the transformation of semantic graphs to a relational database. The goal of...

The Conversion of Diagrams to Knowledge Bases

If future electronic documents are to be truly useful, we must devise ways to automatically turn them into knowledge bases. In particular, we must be able to do this for diagrams. This paper discusses biological diagrams. We describe the three major aspects of diagrams: visual salience, domain conventions and pragmatics. We next describe the organization of diagrams into informational and subst...

An Operational Semantics of Firing Rules for Structured Analysis Style Data Flow Diagrams an Operational Semantics of Firing Rules for Structured Analysis Style Data Flow Diagrams

Using operational semantic techniques, an extended variant of structured analysis style data ow diagrams is given a formal semantics. This semantics allows one to describe both how information is processed and the dynamic behavior of the system. The ability to describe dynamic behavior is an extension to the traditional notion of data ow diagrams. This semantics can serve as a target for giving...
