Abstract

Many applications take advantage of both ontologies and the Linked Data paradigm to characterize various kinds of resources. To fully exploit this knowledge, measures are used to estimate the relatedness of resources regarding their semantic characterization. Such semantic measures mainly focus on specific aspects of the semantic characterization (e.g. types) or only partially exploit the semantics expressed in the knowledge base. This article presents a framework for defining semantic measures to compare instances defined within an RDF knowledge base. A special type of measure, based on the representation of an instance through projections, is detailed and evaluated through its use in a music band recommender system.
