In this talk I will show how disambiguation techniques can be use to improved Data Integration. In particular, I will briefly illustrate how performing the disambiguation of source elements can supply some useful relationships for the integration process. I will show the CWSD algorithm (Combined Word Sense Disambiguation) we have developed at the DBGROUP at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia. Then I will point out some new ideas on a probabilistic way to combine different WSD algorithms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are also inviting top experts in AI and Knowledge Technologies to discuss major socio-technological topics with an audience that comprises both members of the Knowledge Media Institute, as well as the wider staff at The Open University. Differently from our seminar series, these events follow a Q&A format.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
