Presentation Transcript

  1. Semantic Search on FOAF profiles CSCI 572 Project Presentation Mohsen Taheriyan

  2. Linked Data • Like the web of hypertext, the web of data is constructed with documents on the web. • In the web of hypertext,  links are relationships in hypertext documents written in HTML, but for data they links  between arbitrary things described by RDF.   • The URIs identify any kind of object or concept. “The Semantic Web isn't just about putting data on the web. It is about making links, so that a person or machine can explore the web of data.  With linked data, when you have some of it, you can find other, related, data”. - Tim Berners-Lee

  3. Design Issues

  4. Why RDF? • Put all data on the web • Rather than keep them in back-end databases • Adding new attributes easily • Semantic Queries on data (rather than keyword-based search) • Linking Data Image from “The Web of LinkedData” By: Christian Bizer

  5. FOAF (Friend of a Friend) • A simple ontology for representing information about people and who they know • Provides a vocabulary in RDF for sharing personal and social network information on the Semantic Web • FOAF: social semantic web application • Some centralized social networking sites, like Ecademy and LiveJournal output their data in FOAF format • Currently, there are millions of FOAF files and users.

  6. FOAF (RDF/XML) • <foaf:Person> • <foaf:nick>golbeck</foaf:nick> • <foaf:name>golbeck</foaf:name> • <foaf:mbox_sha1sum>4d14fc9da1d0929dae3cde648ae4a7195d120bae • </foaf:mbox_sha1sum> • <foaf:knows> • <foaf:Person> • <foaf:name>Tim Berners-Lee</foaf:name> • <foaf:mbox_sha1sum>…</foaf:mbox_sha1sum> • </foaf:Person> • </foaf:knows> • <foaf:weblogrdf:resource="http://golbeck.livejournal.com/"/> • </foaf:Person>

  7. System Overview • Feed dataset into a model (knowledge base) • Convert User Input to SPARQL • query language on RDF, OWL • Interact with SemWebReasoner through its API • Search on People names • View people information • Webpage • Nickname • Location • … • View people connections • More complex queries • Common friends of X and Y User Interface SemWeb Framework (Provides RDF reasoner) Dataset of FOAF files (RDF format)

  8. Program Components • Programming • C#, .NET • How to interact with dataset • SemWeb Library • Dataset file format • N-Quads • SemWeb can reason only on N3, RDF/XML RDF formats • Query Language on RDF • SPARQL

  9. SPARQL • There are some online query services • SPARQL Query Service Online • PREFIX rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> • PREFIX foaf: <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/> • SELECT DISTINCT ?name • WHERE { • ?x rdf:typefoaf:Person . • ?x foaf:name ?name • }

  10. Demo • Run Program

  11. What I learned? • General concepts of RDF • RDF Syntax • N-Quad • N3 • RDF/XML • FOAF vocabulary • SPARQL Query Language

  12. Discussion • Privacy of FOAF profiles is a concern • People need motivation to put their data on the web • User friendly tools can help • Create a personal webpage from FOAF profile is future work • HTML view of FOAF profiles
