Relation-based Wikipedia Search System for Factoid Questions Answering
PublicationIn this paper we propose an alternative keyword search mechanism for Wikipedia, designed as a prototype solution towards factoid questions answering. The method considers relations between articles for finding the best matching article. Unlike the standard Wikipedia search engine and also Google engine, which search the articles content independently, requiring the entire query to be satisfied by a single article, the proposed...

Self-Organizing Map representation for clustering Wikipedia search results
PublicationThe article presents an approach to automated organization of textual data. The experiments have been performed on selected sub-set of Wikipedia. The Vector Space Model representation based on terms has been used to build groups of similar articles extracted from Kohonen Self-Organizing Maps with DBSCAN clustering. To warrant efficiency of the data processing, we performed linear dimensionality reduction of raw data using Principal...

Path-based methods on categorical structures for conceptual representation of wikipedia articles
PublicationMachine learning algorithms applied to text categorization mostly employ the Bag of Words (BoW) representation to describe the content of the documents. This method has been successfully used in many applications, but it is known to have several limitations. One way of improving text representation is usage of Wikipedia as the lexical knowledge base – an approach that has already shown promising results in many research studies....

Wydobywanie wiedzy z Wikipedii
PublicationWikipedia jest olbrzymim źródłem wiedzy encyklopedycznej gromadzonej przez ludzi i przeznaczonej dla ludzi. W systemach informatycznych odpowiednikiem takiego źródła wiedzy są ontologie. Ten rozdział pokazuje, w jaki sposób Wikipedia jest transformowana w ontologię i jak wydobywać z niej pojęcia, ich właściwości i relacje między nimi.

Self Organizing Maps for Visualization of Categories
PublicationVisualization of Wikipedia categories using Self Organizing Mapsshows an overview of categories and their relations, helping to narrow down search domains. Selecting particular neurons this approach enables retrieval of conceptually similar categories. Evaluation of neural activations indicates that they form coherent patterns that may be useful for building user interfaces for navigation over category structures.

Towards Increasing Density of Relations in Category Graphs
PublicationIn the chapter we propose methods for identifying new associations between Wikipedia categories. The first method is based on Bag-of-Words (BOW) representation of Wikipedia articles. Using similarity of the articles belonging to different categories allows to calculate the information about categories similarity. The second method is based on average scores given to categories while categorizing documents by our dedicated score-based...

Management of Textual Data at Conceptual Level
PublicationThe article presents the approach to the management of a large repository of documents at conceptual level. We describe our approach to representing Wikipedia articles using their categories. The representation has been used to construct groups of similar articles. Proposed approach has been implemented in prototype system that allows to organize articles that are search results for a given query. Constructed clusters allow to...

Review on Wikification methods
PublicationThe paper reviews methods on automatic annotation of texts with Wikipedia entries. The process, called Wikification aims at building references between concepts identified in the text and Wikipedia articles. Wikification finds many applications, especially in text representation, where it enables one to capture the semantic similarity of the documents. Also, it can be considered as automatic tagging of the text. We describe typical...

Evaluation of Path Based Methods for Conceptual Representation of the Text
PublicationTypical text clustering methods use the bag of words (BoW) representation to describe content of documents. However, this method is known to have several limitations. Employing Wikipedia as the lexical knowledge base has shown an improvement of the text representation for data-mining purposes. Promising extensions of that trend employ hierarchical organization of Wikipedia category system. In this paper we propose three path-based...

Towards Facts Extraction From Texts in Polish Language
PublicationThe Polish language differs from English in many ways. It has more complicated conjugation and declination. Because of that automatic facts extraction from texts is difficult. In this paper we present basic differences between those languages. The paper presents an algorithm for extraction of facts from articles from Polish Wikipedia. The algorithm is based on 7 proposed facts schemes that are searched for in the analyzed text....

Dynamic Semantic Visual Information Management
PublicationDominant Internet search engines use keywords and therefore are not suited for exploration of new domains of knowledge, when the user does not know specific vocabulary. Browsing through articles in a large encyclopedia, each presenting a small fragment of knowledge, it is hard to map the whole domain, see relevant concepts and their relations. In Wikipedia for example some highly relevant articles are not linked with each other....

Selecting Features with SVM
PublicationA common problem with feature selection is to establish how many features should be retained at least so that important information is not lost. We describe a method for choosing this number that makes use of Support Vector Machines. The method is based on controlling an angle by which the decision hyperplane is tilt due to feature selection. Experiments were performed on three text datasets generated from a Wikipedia dump. Amount...

Improving css-KNN Classification Performance by Shifts in Training Data
PublicationThis paper presents a new approach to improve the performance of a css-k-NN classifier for categorization of text documents. The css-k-NN classifier (i.e., a threshold-based variation of a standard k-NN classifier we proposed in [1]) is a lazy-learning instance-based classifier. It does not have parameters associated with features and/or classes of objects, that would be optimized during off-line learning. In this paper we propose...
