Using HIVE as a Service • HIVE web application • http://hive.nescent.org/ • Developed by Jose Perez-Aguera, Lina Huang • Java servlet, Google Web Toolkit (GWT) • http://code.google.com/p/hive-mrc/wiki/AboutHiveWeb • HIVE REST service • http://hive.nescent.org/rs • Developed by Duane Costa, Long-Term Ecological Research Network • http://code.google.com/p/hive-mrc/wiki/AboutHiveRestService
Activity: Show HIVE-RS • Demonstrate REST API calls: • http://code.google.com/p/hive-mrc/wiki/AboutHiveRestService
edu.unc.ils.hive.api • SKOSServer: • Provides access to one or more vocabularies • SKOSSearcher: • Supports searching across multiple vocabularies • SKOSTagger: • Supports tagging/keyphrase extraction across multiple vocabularies • SKOSScheme: • Represents an individual vocabulary (location of vocabulary on file system)
SKOSServer • SKOSServer is the top-level class used to initialize the vocabulary server. • Reads the hive.properties file and initializes the SKOSScheme (vocabulary management), SKOSSearcher (concept searching), SKOSTagger (indexing) instances based on the vocabulary configurations. • edu.unc.ils.mrc.hive.api.SKOSServer • TreeMap<String, SKOSScheme> getSKOSSchemas(); • SKOSSearcher getSKOSSearcher(); • SKOSTagger getSKOSTagger(); • String getOrigin(QName uri);
SKOSSearcher • Supports searching across one or more configured vocabularies. • Keyword queries using Lucene, SPARQL queries using OpenRDF/Sesame • edu.unc.ils.mrc.hive.api.SKOSSearcher • searchConceptByKeyword(uri, lp) • searchConceptByURI(uri, lp) • searchChildrenByURI(uri, lp) • SPARQLSelect()
SKOSTagger • Keyphrase extraction using multiple vocabularies • Depends on setting in hive.properties • edu.unc.ils.mrc.hive.api.SKOSTagger • “dummy” or “KEA” • List<SKOSConcept> getTags(String text, List<String> vocabularies, SKOSSearcher searcher);
SKOSScheme Represents an individual vocabulary, based on settings in <vocabulary>.properties Supports querying of statistics about each vocabulary (number of concepts, number of relationships, etc).

HIVE for Developers HIVE is an open-source project Instructions for working with HIVE in Eclipse are on the Wiki http://code.google.com/p/hive-mrc/wiki/DevelopingHIVE Sample code is also available http://code.google.com/p/hive-mrc/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk%2Fdoc%2FsampleCode
Approaches to Automatic Indexing Moens, M.F. (2000). Automatic Indexing and Abstracting of Documents. London: Kluwer. • Knowledge base approach (rule-based) • Manual construction of rules based on expert classifications. • Machine learning approach • Use expert classifications to construct a statistical model for future classifications.
About KEA++ • Machine learning approach • http://www.nzdl.org/Kea/ • Algorithm and open-source Java library for extracting keyphrases from documents using SKOS vocabularies. • Developed by Alyona Medelyan (KEA++), based on earlier work by Ian Whitten (KEA) from the Digital Libraries and Machine Learning Lab at the University of Waikato, New Zealand. • Problem: How can we automatically identify the topic of documents?
Automatic Indexing Medelyan, O. and Whitten I.A. (2008). “Domain independent automatic keyphrase indexing with small training sets.” Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, (59) 7: 1026-1040). • Free keyphrase indexing (KEA) • Significant terms in a document are determined based on intrinsic properties (e.g., frequency and length). • Keyphrase indexing (KEA++) • Terms from a controlled vocabulary are assigned based on intrinsic properties. • Controlled indexing/term assignment: • Documents are classified based on content that corresponds to a controlled vocabulary. • e.g., Pouliquen, Steinberger, and Camelia (2003)
