Abstract

Due to the rapidly increasing use of information and communications technology, Semantic Web technology is being increasingly applied in a large spectrum of applications in which domain knowledge is represented by means of an ontology in order to support reasoning performed by a machine. A semantic association (SA) is a set of relationships between two entities in knowledge base represented as graph paths consisting of a sequence of links. Because the number of relationships between entities in a knowledge base might be much greater than the number of entities, it is recommended to develop tools and invent methods to discover new unexpected links and relevant semantic associations in the large store of the preliminary extracted semantic association. Semantic association mining is a rapidly growing field of research, which studies these issues in order to create efficient methods and tools to help us filter the overwhelming flow of information and extract the knowledge that reflect the user need. The authors present, in this work, an approach which allows the extraction of association rules (SWARM: Semantic Web Association Rule Mining) from a structured semantic association store. Then, present a new method which allows the discovery of relevant semantic associations between a preliminary extracted SA and predefined features, specified by user, with the use of Hyperclique Pattern (HP) approach. In addition, the authors present an approach which allows the extraction of hidden entities in knowledge base. The experimental results applied to synthetic and real world data show the benefit of the proposed methods and demonstrate their promising effectiveness.
