description

Resources for research are not always easy to explore, and rarely come with strong support for identifying, linking and selecting those that can be of interest to scholars. In this work we introduce a model that uses state-of-the-art semantic technologies to interlink structured research data and data from Web collaboration tools, social media and Linked Open Data. We use this model to build a platform that connects scholars, using their pro les as a starting point to explore novel and relevant content for their research. Scholars can easily adapt to evolving trends by synchronizing new social media accounts or collaboration tools and integrate then with new datasets. We evaluate our approach by a scenario of personalized exploration of research repositories where we analyze real world scholar pro files and compare them to a reference profi le.

Make the most of the wealth of resources for research:

through relating and aligning scholar profiles with the

online available resources, publications, conferences ,and other scholar profiles.

Conference tags are better recognized (higher accuracy)Accuracy of the alignment between datasets crucial.

Promising sensitivity when interlinking articles and authors.

Even a low sensitivity guarantees useful linksas each single correct link builds a novel connection of interest.

Discussion

Aligned resources from scholars for exploring and searchingreading library and contributions on web collaboration tools

Future research will focus onConfirm findings using additional user profilesHow to determine the efficiency of the modelImprove the accuracy of the interlinking by post-processing the contributed resources with additional relations
