Paper about enhanced user interaction and information quality accepted

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

The DigitalWorld 2010 (eLmL) accepted our paper “Towards Enhanced User Interaction to Qualify Web Resources for higher-layered applications“.

In this contribution we present our adaption of information quality aspects to qualify Web resources. We selected knowledge-related iq-criteria and take it now as tool to implement iq-mechanisms stepwise into the qKAI framework. We exemplify some criteria of information quality like relevance, accuracy or response time and then derive assessment methods for certain iq-criteria enabling rich, game-based user interaction and semantic resource annotation.

Jan Hein finished his Master thesis at the end of 2008 with the topic: ‘Specification and implementation of information units for qualifying knowledge modelling’ (Thesis in German). Automated extraction of text chunks out of Wikipedia without loosing structure and context is next to semantic annotation the main focus of his work.

The specification of information units can be found here: http://qkai.org/spec/2008/10/

The Wikipedia Extractor prototype is available under http://qkai.org/WikipediaExtractor
