3 A Semantic Infrastructure Approach to Search: Elements Multiple Knowledge Structures – Facet – orthogonal dimension of metadata – Taxonomy - Subject matter / aboutness – Ontology – Relationships / Facts Subject – Verb - Object Software - Search, ECM, auto-categorization, entity extraction, Text Analytics and Text Mining People – tagging, evaluating tags, fine tune rules and taxonomy People – Users, social tagging, suggestions Rich Search Results – context and conversation
4
4 A Semantic Infrastructure Approach to Search: Rich Results Elements – Faceted Navigation – Categorization – metadata and/or dynamic – Tag Clouds – clustering – User Tags, personalization – Related topics – discovery Supports all manner of search behaviors and needs – Find known items – zero in with facets – Discovery – Tags clouds, user tags, related topics – Deep dive - categorization

8 A Semantic Infrastructure Approach to Search: Three Environments E-Commerce – Catalogs, small uniform collections of entities – Conflict of information and Selling – Uniform behavior – buy this Enterprise – More content, more types of content – Enterprise Tools – Search, ECM – Publishing Process – tagging, metadata standards Internet – Wildly different amount and type of content, no taggers – General Purpose – Flickr, Yahoo – Vertical Portal – selected content, no taggers
9
9 A Semantic Infrastructure Approach to Search: Enterprise Environment –Taxonomy, 7 facets Taxonomy of Subjects / Disciplines: – Science > Marine Science > Marine microbiology > Marine toxins Facets: – Organization > Division > Group – Clients > Federal > EPA – Instruments > Environmental Testing > Ocean Analysis > Vehicle – Facilities > Division > Location > Building X – Methods > Social > Population Study – Materials > Compounds > Chemicals – Content Type – Knowledge Asset > Proposals
10
10 A Semantic Infrastructure Approach to Search: Internet Design Subject Matter taxonomy – Business Topics – Finance > Currency > Exchange Rates Facets – Location > Western World > United States – People – Alphabetical and/or Topical - Organization – Organization > Corporation > Car Manufacturing > Ford – Date – Absolute or range (1-1-01 to 1-1-08, last 30 days) – Publisher – Alphabetical and/or Topical – Organization – Content Type – list – newspapers, financial reports, etc.

12 Rich Search Results Design Issues - General What is the right combination of elements? – Faceted navigation, metadata, browse, search, categorized search results, file plan What is the right balance of elements? – Dominant dimension or equal facets – Browse topics and filter by facet When to combine search, topics, and facets? – Search first and then filter by topics / facet – Browse/facet front end with a search box
13
13 Rich Search Results Design Issues - General Homogeneity of Audience and Content Model of the Domain – broad – How many facets do you need? – More facets and let users decide – Allow for customization – can’t define a single set User Analysis – tasks, labeling, communities Issue – labels that people use to describe their business and label that they use to find information Match the structure to domain and task – Users can understand different structures
14
14 Rich Search Results Automatic Facets – Special Issues Scale requires more automated solutions – More sophisticated rules Rules to find and populate existing metadata – Variety of types of existing metadata – Publisher, title, date – Multiple implementation Standards – Last Name, First / First Name, Last Issue of disambiguation: – Same person, different name – Henry Ford, Mr. Ford, Henry X. Ford – Same word, different entity – Ford and Ford Number of entities and thresholds per results set / document – Usability, audience needs Relevance Ranking – number of entities, rank of facets

16 Semantic Infrastructure for Search Apps Multiple Applications SIRI – Travel Assistant
17
Semantic Infrastructure for Search Apps Case Study – Categorization & Sentiment Call Motivation – Categorization – Motivation Taxonomy – Purpose of previous calls to understand current call – Issues of scale, small size of documents, jargon, spelling Customer Sentiment – Telecom Forums – Feature level – not just products – Issue of context - sarcasm, jargon Knowledge Base – Categorization, Product extraction, expertise-sentiment analysis – Social Media as source for solutions 17

Semantic Infrastructure for Search Apps Case Study – Taxonomy Development Problem – 200,000 new uncategorized documents Old taxonomy –need one that reflects change in corpus Text mining, entity extraction, categorization Content – 250,000 large documents, search logs, etc. Bottom Up- terms in documents – frequency, date, Clustering – suggested categories Clustering – chunking for editors Entity Extraction – people, organizations, Programming languages Time savings – only feasible way to scan documents Quality – important terms, co-occurring terms 22

26 Semantic Infrastructure Applications Expertise Analysis Sentiment Analysis to Expertise Analysis(KnowHow) – Know How, skills, “tacit” knowledge No single correct categorization – Women, Fire, and Dangerous Things – Types of Animals Those that belong to the Emperor Embalmed Ones Suckling Pigs Fabulous Ones Those that are included in this classification Those that tremble as if they were mad Other
27
27 Semantic Infrastructure Applications Expertise Analysis – Basic Level Categories Mid-level in a taxonomy / hierarchy Short and easy words Maximum distinctness and expressiveness First level named and understood by children Level at which most of our knowledge is organized Levels: Superordinate – Basic – Subordinate – Mammal – Dog – Golden Retriever – Furniture – chair – kitchen chair
28
28 Semantic Infrastructure Applications Expertise Analysis Experts prefer lower, subordinate levels – In their domain, (almost) never used superordinate Novice prefer higher, superordinate levels General Populace prefers basic level Not just individuals but whole societies / communities differ in their preferred levels Issue – artificial languages – ex. Science discipline Issue – difference of child and adult learning – adults start with high level
29
29 Semantic Infrastructure Applications Expertise Analysis What is basic level is context(s) dependent – Document/author expert in news health care, not research Hybrid – simple high level taxonomy (superordinate), short words – basic, longer words – expert Plus Develop expertise rules – similar to categorization rules – Use basic level for subject – Superordinate for general, subordinate for expert Also contextual rules – “Tests” is general, high level – “Predictive value of tests” is lower, more expert – If terms appear in same sentence - expert

32
32 Semantic Infrastructure Applications Expertise Analysis – application areas Taxonomy/ Ontology development /design – use basic level User contribution – Card sorting – non-experts use superficial similarities – Survey for attributes instead of cart sorting, general structure Develop expert and general versions/sections/synonyms Info presentation – combine superordinate and basic – Similar to scientific – Genus – Species is official name Text Mining – Expertise characterization of writer
33
33 Semantic Infrastructure Applications Expertise Analysis – application areas Business & Customer intelligence – General – characterize people’s expertise to add to evaluation of their comments – Combine with sentiment analysis – finer evaluation – what are experts saying, what are novices saying – Deeper research into communities, customers Enterprise Content Management – At publish time, software automatically gives an expertise level – present to author for validation – Combine with categorization – offer tags that are suitable level of expertise
34
34 Semantic Infrastructure Applications Expertise Analysis – application areas Social Media - Community of Practice – Characterize the level of expertise in the community – Evaluate other communities expertise level – Personalize information presentation by expertise Expertise location – Generate automatic expertise characterization based on authored documents Expertise of people in a social network – Terrorists and bomb-making
