Last week Francesco Osborne attended the 15th edition of the International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2016) where he presented our work on the Smart Topic Miner (STM), the innovative application developed in collaboration with Springer Nature for automatically classifying research publications. STM was designed to classify proceedings and more in general any collection of articles […]
The process of classifying scholarly outputs is crucial to ensure timely access to knowledge. This process is typically carried out manually by expert editors, leading to high costs and slow throughput. For these reasons, the Rexplore team, in collaboration with Springer Nature, created Smart Topic Miner (STM), a novel solution which uses semantic web technologies […]
Francesco Osborne attended the 14th edition of the prestigious International Semantic Web Conference where he presented the paper “Klink-2: Integrating Multiple Web Sources to Generate Semantic Topic Networks” in the highly selective research track. The paper introduced Klink-2, the new version of the Klink algorithm for the automatic generation of ontologies of research topics. Klink-2 […]
The groundbreaking Rexplore system for analysing scholarly data was awarded first prize, as Best Semantic Publishing Application, at the “Semantic Publishing Challenge”, which was held in the context of the 11th Extended Semantic Web Conference. Rexplore was chosen from a number of innovative Semantic Web applications by a jury comprising both researchers and commercial publishers. […]
Enrico Motta and Francesco Osborne presented their paper “Exploring Scholarly Data with Rexplore” (co-authored with Paul Mulholland) in the highly competitive Research Track (21% acceptance rate). Mathieu D’Aquin and Keerthi Thomas contributed to the Workshop “Society, Privacy and the Semantic Web – Policy and Technology” with the paper “Semantic Web Technologies for Social Translucence and […]
On 20 May 2025, Dr. Angelo Salatino was invited to give a webinar to the ISKO UK Meetup about our recenly published survey "A Survey on Knowledge Organization Systems of Research Fields: Resources and Challenges". ISKO UK Meetups are known for bringing together academics and practitioners to explore a wide range of practical and technology-oriented topics related to knowledge organization...
The Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI published its 2025 AI Index report this week, providing a comprehensive look at the global state of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The report, now in its eighth edition, tracks and visualises data on technical performance, economic impact, education, policy, and responsible AI to offer an empirical foundation for understanding the field's rapid...
The SKM3 team, in collaboration with researchers at Stanford University (CA), has released version 3.4.1 of the Computer Science Ontology. This version significantly expands its coverage of Artificial Intelligence, adding about 100 new topics, including Generative AI, Large Language Models, Retrieval Augmented Generation, Generative Adversarial Networks, Prompt Engineering, Zero-Shot Learning,...
Our research leverages the combined capabilities of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Scientific Knowledge Graphs (SKGs). These graphs provide a way to structure and represent scientific information, enabling AI to analyse complex research concepts. Their combination facilitates us in developing novel approaches and large-scale tools to analyse trends, explore research data and metadata,...
