    • A Roadmap for navigating the Life Sciences Linked Open Data Cloud 

      Hasnain, Ali; Sana e Zainab, Syeda; Kamdar, Maulik; Mehmood, Qaiser; Deus, Helena; Mehdi, Muntazir; Decker, Stefan (2014)
      Multiple datasets that add high value to biomedical research have been exposed on the web as a part of the Life Sciences Linked Open Data (LSLOD) Cloud. The ability to easily navigate through these datasets is crucial for ...

    • Scalable and distributed methods for entity matching, consolidation and disambiguation over linked data corpora 

      Hogan, Aidan; Zimmermann, Antoine; Umbrich, Jürgen; Polleres, Axel; Decker, Stefan (Elsevier BV, 2012-01-01)

      Hogan, Aidan; Harth, Andreas; Umbrich, Jürgen; Kinsella, Sheila; Polleres, Axel; Decker, Stefan (Elsevier BV, 2011-12-01)

    • Semantic Social Collaborative Filtering with FOAFRealm 

      Kruk, Sebastian Ryszard; Decker, Stefan (2005)
      The most popular collaborative filtering implementations require either a critical mass of referenced resources and a lot of active users. Other solutions are based on finding a referral with an expertise on the given ...

    • Semantic Wikis for Personal Knowledge Management 

      Oren, Eyal; Breslin, John; Decker, Stefan (Springer, 2006)
      Wikis are becoming popular knowledge management tools. Analysing knowledge management requirements, we observe that wikis do not fully support structured search and knowledge reuse. We show how Semantic wikis address the ...

    • Sig.ma: live views on the web of data 

      Tummarello, Giovanni; Cyganiak, Richard; Catasta, Michele; Danielczyk, Szymon; Delbru, Renaud; Decker, Stefan (Elsevier BV, 2010-11-01)

    • Simple algorithms for predicate suggestions using similarity and co-occurrence 

      Oren, Eyal; Gerke, Sebastian; Decker, Stefan (Association for Computing Machinery, 2007)
      When creating Semantic Web data, users have to make a critical choice for a vocabulary: only through shared vocabularies can meaning be established. A centralised policy prevents terminology divergence but would restrict ...

    • Sindice Widgets: Lightweight embedding of Semantic Web capabilities into existing user applications 

      Westerski, Adam; Iqbal, Aftab; Tummarello, Giovanni; Decker, Stefan (2008)
      In this paper we present a methodology by which it is possible to enhance existing web applications and directly deliver to the end users aggregated ¿views¿ of information. These views are accessed by clicking on buttons ...

    • SIOC: Content Exchange and Semantic Interoperability Between Social Networks 

      Breslin, John; Bojars, Uldis; Passant, Alexandre; Fernández, Sergio; Decker, Stefan (2009)
      This paper describes work performed during the last few years in the context of the SIOC project in order to model social data on the Web using Semantic Web technologies. We will give an overview of the SIOC model, ...

    • Social Networking Portals: An Overview and Evaluation 

      O'Murchu, Ina; Breslin, John; Decker, Stefan (2004)
      Next generation communication on the Internet changes the way we interact with the complexity of the information load on the World Wide Web. Web portals act as gateways to resources and a multitude of services on the ...

    • Social Networks and Data Portability using Semantic Web technologies 

      Bojars, Uldis; Breslin, John; Decker, Stefan (2008)
      Social network and data portability has recently gained a lot of interest as one of the issues for social media sites on the Web. In this paper, we will show how Semantic Web technologies and especially the FOAF and ...

    • SWSE: Answers Before Links! 

      Harth, Andreas; Hogan, Aidan; Delbru, Renaud; Umbrich, Jürgen; O'Riain, Sean; Decker, Stefan (CEUR-WS.org, 2007)
      We present a system that improves on current document- centric Web search engine technology; adopting an entity-centric perspective, we are able to integrate data from both static and live sources into a coherent, interlinked ...

    • SWSE: Objects before documents! 

      Harth, Andreas; Hogan, Aidan; Umbrich, Jürgen; Decker, Stefan (2008)
      Web search engines are immensely useful for locating documents online. However, with more and more structured data being published online, the restriction to the hyperdocument model impairs the usefulness for searching and ...

    • Topfed: tcga tailored federated query processing and linking to lod 

      Saleem, Muhammad; Padmanabhuni, Shanmukha S.; Ngonga Ngomo, Axel-Cyrille; Iqbal, Aftab; Almeida, Jonas S.; Decker, Stefan; Deus, Helena F. (Springer Nature, 2014-01-01)
      Backgroud: The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) is a multidisciplinary, multi-institutional effort to catalogue genetic mutations responsible for cancer using genome analysis techniques. One of the aims of this project is to ...

    • Towards a social provenance model for the Web 

      Harth, Andreas; Polleres, Axel; Decker, Stefan (2007)
      In this position paper we firstly present the established notion of provenance on the Semantic Web (also referred to as named graphs or contexts), and secondly argue for the benefit of adding to the pure technical notion ...

    • Towards Dataset Dynamics: Change Frequency of Linked Open Data Sources 

      Umbrich, Jürgen; Hausenblas, Michael; Hogan, Aidan; Polleres, Axel; Decker, Stefan (CEUR, 2010)
      Datasets in the LOD cloud are far from being static in their nature and how they are exposed. As resources are added and new links are set, applications consuming the data should be able to deal with these changes. In ...
