Abstract

The large amounts and growing of unstructured texts, available in Internet and other scenarios, are becoming a very valuable resource of information and knowledge. The present work describes a concept-based text analysis approach, based on the use of a knowledge graph for structuring the texts content and a query language for retrieving relevant information and obtaining knowledge from the knowledge graph automatically generated. In the querying process, a semantic analysis method is applied for searching and integrating the conceptual structures from the knowledge graph, which is supported by a disambiguation algorithm and WordNet. The applicability of the proposed approach was evaluated in the analysis of scientific articles from a Systematic Literature Review and the results were contrasted with the conclusions obtained by the authors of this review.
