Abstract
The emergence of big-data brings diversified structures and constant growths of knowledge. The objective of knowledge fusion (KF) research is to integrate, discover and exploit valuable knowledge from distributed, heterogeneous and autonomous knowledge sources, which is the necessary prerequisite and effective approach to implement knowledge services. In order to apply KF practice, this paper firstly discusses KF connotations in terms of analysing the relations and differences among various notions, i.e. knowledge fusion, knowledge integration, information fusion and data fusion. Then, based on the knowledge representation method using ontology, this paper investigates several KF implementation patterns and provides two types of dimensional KF process models oriented to demands of knowledge services.
