Research Group Semantic Abstraction (SIMBA)

SIMBA is a subgroup of AKSW.

Goals

The goal of the research group is to provide tools for the extraction of structured data out of unstructured data sources. The group works with both domain-unspecific and domain-specific unstructured data sources to compute formal representations of the content of these sources.

Research Areas

• Extraction of domain-specific terminology
• Unsupervised machine learned for the extraction of semantic classes
• Formal specification of ontologies
• Integration of formal ontologies in domain-specific text mining
• Ontology population
• Domain-specific information provision

Projects
