LiDRC Lab
Linked Data Research Centre (LiDRC) Laboratory
The LiDRC Lab is a collection of tools and demos we are working on in the Linked Data Research Centre, DERI at NUI Galway.
Experimental Tools & Services
In the table below you'll find tools and services we are experimenting with. They are likely not stable and are subject to (rapid) change.
Mondeca Labs is our sandbox : we try things out to illustrate the potential of semantic web technologies and get feedback from the semantic web community.
Our lab focuses on research and applications of Semantic Computing, Text Mining, Linked Data, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Intelligent Information Systems, and related technologies. We are committed to providing free, open source software and open research data to the community.
Prospector is a series of experiments from Mozilla Labs focused on analyzing, experimenting and prototyping improvements on how you search and discover content with Firefox. We're focusing on three main areas: websites you have visited, tabs you are currently viewing, and pages you haven't visited yet.
Overview
When people communicate, they rely on a large body of shared common sense knowledge in order to understand each other. Many barriers we face today in artificial intelligence and user interface design are due to the fact that computers do not share this knowledge. To improve computers' understanding of the world that people live in and talk about, we need to provide them with usable knowledge about the basic relationships between things that nearly every person knows. In 1999, we began a project at the MIT Media Lab to collect common sense from volunteers on the internet. Ten years later our project has expanded to encompass many different areas, languages, and problems. Currently, the English site has over a million sentences from over 15,000 contributors.
The Semantic Web is a vision for extending the Web so that machines can more intelligently integrate and process the wealth of information that is available. Unlike HTML and ordinary XML, Semantic Web languages allow semantics (i.e., meaning) to be explicitly associated with the content. The semantics are formally specified in ontologies, which can be shared via the Internet and extended for local needs. The current standard for the Semantic Web is OWL, a W3C Recommendation. The Semantic Web and Agent Technologies (SWAT) lab is investigating many of the issues needed to realize the Semantic Web vision.
H-Store is an experimental main-memory, parallel database management system that is optimized for OLTP applications. It is a highly distributed, row-store-based relational database that runs on a cluster on shared-nothing, main memory executor nodes.
The H-Store project is a collaboration between MIT, Brown University, Yale University, and HP Labs.
"SWOOP is a tool for creating, editing, and debugging OWL ontologies. It was produced by the MIND lab at University of Maryland, College Park, but is now an open source project with contributers from all over."
"Jena is a Java framework for building Semantic Web applications. It provides a programmatic environment for RDF, RDFS and OWL, SPARQL and includes a rule-based inference engine.
Jena is open source and grown out of work with the HP Labs Semantic Web Programme. "

DERI's Linked Data Research Centre (LiDRC) is organised into research themes addressing certain aspects of Linked Data publishing and consuming. You can find the current research themes in the table below or have a look at the LiDRC Lab, a collection of tools and services we are working on.
