Abstract This paper presents MHeTRep, a multilingual medical terminology and the methodology followed for its compilation. The is organised into one vocabulary each language. All terms in collection are semantically tagged with tagset corresponding to top categories of Snomed-CT ontology. When possible, individual linked their equivalent other languages. Even though many NLP resources tools cla...

Authoring meaningful crowds to populate a virtual city can be cumbersome, time-consuming and an error-prone task. In this work, we present new framework for authoring populated environments in easier faster way, by relying on the use of procedural techniques. Our consists generation semantically-augmented cities drive simulation crowds. The main novelty lies agendas each individual inhabitant (...

Modelling arguments on the social web is a key challenge for those studying computational argumentation. This is because formal models of argumentation tend to assume dialectic and logical argument, whereas argumentation on the social web is highly eristic. In this paper we explore this gap by bringing together the Argument Interchange Format (AIF) and the Semantic Interlinked Online Communitie...

Large volumes of content (bookmarks, reviews, videos, etc.) are currently being created on the “Social Web”, i.e. on Web 2.0 community sites, nd this content is being annotated and commented upon. The ability to view an individual’s entire contribution to the Social Web would be an nteresting and valuable service, particularly important as social networks are often being formed through created ...

The SIOC project is aimed at expressing information about the structure and content of online community sites and at enabling interoperability on the Social Web using Semantic Web technologies. In this paper we briefly describe the SIOC project, introduce the SIOC Core ontology and its modules, and discuss some SIOC-based applications in terms of human and agent communication.

Among the activities that people participate in on the Social Web are argumentative discussions and decision making. This paper analyzes a series of use-cases (from the perspective of social media sites) that share the presence of such argumentative discussions and where the structure of online discussions can be represented in SIOC. Our goal is to externalize implicit argumentation structures ...
