  2. Agenda • Introduction • References can be smart • References can be made even smarter • The anatomy of a reference (structure) • The physiology of a reference helps make them smarter (creating semantics from that structure) • The role of the smart repository • Conclusion

  3. Agenda • Introduction • References are famous for • Supporting an author’s claims • Leading the reader to interesting new content • Showing which authors this article’s author reads • Having a significant error rate (See Journal of the American Medical Informatics AssociationVolume 12, Issue 2, March-April 2005, Pages 225-229, er 228…) • Semantics in action • References are packed with structure and information relative to their compact size and are a great place to apply technology • Applying these technologies to references shows • That semantics make references more useful • A mix of intelligent tools and comparison against canonical resources gets the job done • A smart repository for content ties it all together

  4. Agenda • References can be smarter than they look on first glance • They can help people find content related to the article, chapter, book, etc. being read • They can help people locate desired subjects by searching them • They are helpful for analysis • They contain useful entities such as journals, books, authors, etc. • Let’s take a quick look through http://psycnet.apa.org

  5. Agenda • References can be made even smarter • They can be connected to sources with unique identifiers, with those unique identifiers usually connected to additional information and services • They can be part of a more sophisticated network of linking • They can be used to disambiguate the meaning of terms and provide better search results • They can be used to disambiguate authors and correctly match authors with their publications • http://markprod.apa.org:8025/citedrefs/journal-title-uidlink-analysis-and-statistics.xqy

  6. Agenda • How we make them smarter • You need to know the anatomy of a reference • ref express + MarkLogic • Authors, Dates, Locations (usually needs an associated network) • Journal title / Book title / other container title, Article/chapter title,etc. • http://mark-dev.apa.org:8431/citedrefs/nlm-citedrefs-analyzer.xqy?uid=200921421-005 • http://pi-wf.apa.org/refXpress/Search.aspx • Then you can work with the physiology of a reference • Ref express phase II – using what we learned from the parsing to add intelligence • Reference matching (ML XQuery, CrossRef, Medline) • Canonicalizing, alphabetizing, and our beloved Em Dashes • Reference correction (compare / correct) • Reference analysis: http://markprod.apa.org:8025/citedrefs/analysis-and-statistics.xqy • You need to link it all together in a single repository

  7. Getting the most out of Semantics: XML Server as Smart Repository • How can you get the most out of your semantic work? • Use the right model • Store as XML • XML structure • XML semantics • Use the right tool • XML Server as Smart Repository • Understands XML structure • Understands XML semantics • Has the features to create information products • Store, Search, Analyze and Deliver • Has flexibility for agility • To change and adapt as new semantics are added • Can be the center of your semantic processes

  9. Smart Repository For APA • Single, core repository for content • Workflow around system – systems are built outward from repository • Leverages structure • Natively stored • Agile and adaptive • Enables semantic functionality – reference matching in Xquery • Provides unique views of content • Enables continuous improvement

  10. Smart References for APA • Getting references right helps • Users can find content they want • . . . and find new information they didn’t know about • APA leverage their content • … and see the trends and big picture relationships • A real example of semantics in action
