چکیده

In an attempt to create a lean vocabulary for incremental recording and step-wise formalisation of personal knowledge, we identified a set of common knowledge structures. These Conceptual Data Structures (CDS) were found to be inherent to a variety of different knowledge artefacts ranging from vague paper notes to highly structured documents. CDS is suitable for representing knowledge in various degrees of formalisation a uniform fashion, allowing gradual migration. CDS serves two purposes: First, as a guideline for future Personal Knowledge Management (PKM) tools, providing a set of crucial structural primitives. Second, the RDF-based representation of CDS can serve as a knowledge exchange format. It is capable of representing also vague or even inconsistent knowledge structures between people and PKM tools without unnecessary loss of information.

Modelling Higher-Level Thought Structures – Method & Tool

Knowledge articulation costs are the bottleneck for efficient Personal Knowledge Management (PKM). Current tools either allow to few structures and hence have to rely only on keyword searches in plain text, allow no associative browsing, and cannot infer new knowledge. Semantic modelling tools on the other hands are too cumbersome to use and force the user to formalise everything all the time –...

A conceptual model for developing a personalized adaptive elearning system in a business environment

In this paper we present and recommend a conceptual model for designing and developing an adaptive elearning system that main application is the identification of educational needs of employees from formal and semi-structured data and the choice of the appropriate personalized learning strategy. The human resource department has the responsibility for the all process. We use available internati...

Query Architecture Expansion in Web Using Fuzzy Multi Domain Ontology

Due to the increasing web, there are many challenges to establish a general framework for data mining and retrieving structured data from the Web. Creating an ontology is a step towards solving this problem. The ontology raises the main entity and the concept of any data in data mining. In this paper, we tried to propose a method for applying the "meaning" of the search system, But the problem ...

Ontology Design with Formal Concept Analysis

Ontologies, often defined as an explicit specification of conceptualization, are necessary for knowledge representation and knowledge exchange. Usually this means that ontology describes concepts and relations that exist in a domain. To enable knowledge exchange, it is necessary to describe these concepts and relations in a better way than just ordering them in taxonomy. However, ontology desig...

Towards the development of a biomechanical ontology to support the initiatives of the Parametric Human Project

The creation of a conceptual schema that symbolically represents the collective knowledge of a particular domain is a daunting task, particularly to capture and unify the breadth and complexity of human form and function. Much like other modelling endeavours, a number of fundamental challenges exist when developing a formal knowledge base. The primary goal here is to identify the key elements t...
