چکیده

This paper introduces a new map browser of location based contents (LBC) that summarizes area characteristics. Recently various web map services have been widely used to search web contents. As LBC increase, browsing a number of LBC which are viewed as POI (point of interest) on a geographical map becomes inefficient. We tackle this issue by using AOI (area of interest) instead of POI. With the AOI a user can instantly find area characteristics without viewing each content of POI. We assume that semantically homogeneous and geographically distinguishable areas are suitable for the AOI. The AOI is formed by geo-semantic clustering which is a co-clustering that takes into account both geographical and semantic aspects of POI information. By the experiment using real LBC on the web, we confirmed our method has potential to extract good AOI.

Centralized Clustering Method To Increase Accuracy In Ontology Matching Systems

Ontology is the main infrastructure of the Semantic Web which provides facilities for integration, searching and sharing of information on the web. Development of ontologies as the basis of semantic web and their heterogeneities have led to the existence of ontology matching. By emerging large-scale ontologies in real domain, the ontology matching systems faced with some problem like memory con...

A clustering approach for mineral potential mapping: A deposit-scale porphyry copper exploration targeting

This work describes a knowledge-guided clustering approach for mineral potential mapping (MPM), by which the optimum number of clusters is derived form a knowledge-driven methodology through a concentration-area (C-A) multifractal analysis. To implement the proposed approach, a case study at the North Narbaghi region in the Saveh, Markazi province of Iran, was investigated to discover porphyry ...

A Joint Semantic Vector Representation Model for Text Clustering and Classification

Text clustering and classification are two main tasks of text mining. Feature selection plays the key role in the quality of the clustering and classification results. Although word-based features such as term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) vectors have been widely used in different applications, their shortcoming in capturing semantic concepts of text motivated researches to use...

Density-Based Clustering with Geographical Background Constraints Using a Semantic Expression Model

A semantics-based method for density-based clustering with constraints imposed by geographical background knowledge is proposed. In this paper, we apply an ontological approach to the DBSCAN (Density-Based Geospatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) algorithm in the form of knowledge representation for constraint clustering. When used in the process of clustering geographic information, s...
