Human Language Technologies

  • Chapter

Knowledge Discovery is traditionally used for analysis of large amounts of data and enables addressing a number of tasks that arise in Semantic Web and require scalable solutions. Additionally, Knowledge Discovery techniques have been successfully applied not only to structured data i.e. databases but also to semi-structured and unstructured data including text, graphs, images and video. Semantic Web technologies often call for dealing with text and sometimes also graphs or social networks.
