Multimedia, eScience and the Semantic Web Suzanne Little
This event took place on 30th July 2008 at 11:00am (10:00 GMT)
Knowledge Media Institute, Berrill Building, The Open University, Milton Keynes, United Kingdom, MK7 6AA
This talk will act as an introduction and provide an overview of my thesis research (titled "A Semantic Framework for the Management, Analysis and Assimilation of Mixed-Media Scientific Data") and (briefly) the work conducted over the past 18 months as a postdoc with the EU Network of Excellence, MUSCLE (Multimedia Understanding through Semantics, Computation and LEarning). This includes the use of semantic web technologies (XML, RDF, ontologies, inferencing rules etc.) to support scientific research through:
*the capture and management of provenance data,
*using semantic inferencing rules and ontologies to annotate regions in images and
*interacting with collections of scientific multimedia.
Finally, I will discuss some of the work I hope to undertake at KMi through the PHAROS project.
