讲座内容: Semantic Modeling of Scientist: the VIVO ontology

内容摘要：

VIVO has been funded by NIH to create a semantic Facebook for scientist. It utilizes Semantic Web technologies to model scientists and provides federated search to enhance the discovery of researchers and collaborators across the country. The VIVO ontology team is developing a core ontology for modeling scientists, publications, resources, grants, locations, and services. It incorporates classes from popular ontologies, such as BIBO, Dublin Core, Event, FOAF, geopolitical, and SKOS. VIVO data is based on high quality personnel data for VIVO partner institutions (i.e., University of Florida, Cornell University, Indiana University, Washington University, Weill Cornell Medical College, Scripps, and Ponce School of Medicine) that comes primarily from faculty annual reports, with additional publication data from Scopus and PubMed. VIVO data is for scientists with a focus on research (i.e., educational background, publications, expertise, grants), teaching (i.e., courses, seminars, training), and service (i.e., organizing conferences, editorial boards, other community services).

VIVO是由美国国家健康研究院（NIH）资助的一个项目，该项目的目标是利用语义网及本体技术建设一个支持交流和发现的国家科学家网络，其核心部分是开源的VIVO本体。VIVO在语义网及本体技术方面具有较强的理论水平和实践成果。美国哈佛大学主建的学术搜索引擎Harvard Catalyst也采用了VIVO本体来扩展它的功能。讲座人Dr. Ying Ding是VIVO项目语义本体团队的负责人。
