A significant part of the largest Knowledge Graph today, the Linked Open Data cloud, consists of metadata about documents such as publications, news reports, and other media articles. While the widespread access to the document metadata is a tremendous advancement, it is yet not so easy to assign semantic annotations and organize the documents along semantic concepts. Providing semantic annotations like concepts in SKOS thesauri is a classical research topic, but typically it is conducted on the full-text of the documents. For the first time, we offer a systematic comparison of classification approaches to investigate how far semantic annotations can be conducted using just the metadata of the documents such as titles published as labels on the Linked Open Data cloud. We compare the classifications obtained from analyzing the documents' titles with semantic annotations obtained from analyzing the full-text. Apart from the prominent text classification baselines kNN and SVM, we also compare recent techniques of Learning to Rank and neural networks and revisit the traditional methods logistic regression, Rocchio, and Naive Bayes. The results show that across three of our four datasets, the performance of the classifications using only titles reaches over 90% of the quality compared to the classification performance when using the full-text. Thus, conducting document classification by just using the titles is a reasonable approach for automated semantic annotation and opens up new possibilities for enriching Knowledge Graphs.
For (semi-)automated subject indexing systems in digital libraries, it is often more practical to use metadata such as the title of a publication instead of the full-text or the abstract. Therefore, it is desirable to have good text mining and text classification algorithms that operate well already on the title of a publication. So far, the classification performance on titles is not competitive with the performance on the full-texts if the same number of training samples is used for training. However, it is much easier to obtain title data in large quantities and to use it for training than full-text data. In this paper, we investigate the question how models obtained from training on increasing amounts of title training data compare to models from training on a constant number of full-texts. We evaluate this question on a large-scale dataset from the medical domain (PubMed) and from economics (EconBiz). In these datasets, the titles and annotations of millions of publications are available, and they outnumber the available full-texts by a factor of 20 and 15, respectively. To exploit these large amounts of data to their full potential, we develop three strong deep learning classifiers and evaluate their performance on the two datasets. The results are promising. On the EconBiz dataset, all three classifiers outperform their full-text counterparts by a large margin. The best title-based classifier outperforms the best full-text method by 9.4%. On the PubMed dataset, the best title-based method almost reaches the performance of the best full-text classifier, with a difference of only 2.9%.
Summarization is a widespread method for handling very large graphs. The task of structural graph summarization is to compute a concise but meaningful synopsis of the key structural information of a graph. As summaries may be used for many different purposes, there is no single concept or model of graph summaries. We have studied existing structural graph summaries for large-scale (semantic) graphs. Despite their different concepts and purposes, we found commonalities in the graph structures they capture. We use these commonalities to provide for the first time a formally defined common model, FLUID (FLexible graph sUmmarIes for Data graphs), that allows us to flexibly define structural graph summaries. FLUID allows graph summaries to be quickly defined, adapted, and compared for different purposes and datasets. To this end, FLUID provides features of structural summarization based on equivalence relations such as distinction of types and properties, direction of edges, bisimulation, and inference. We conduct a detailed complexity analysis of the features provided by FLUID. We show that graph summaries defined with FLUID can be computed in the worst case in time O(n 2 ) w.r.t. n, the number of edges in the data graph. An empirical analysis of large-scale web graphs with billions of edges indicates a typical running time of Θ(n). Based on the formal FLUID model, one can quickly define and modify various structural graph summaries from the literature and beyond.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
