DataPflex: a MATLAB-based tool for the manipulation and visualization of multidimensional datasets

The Web makes it possible for news readers to learn more about virtually any story that interests them. Media outlets and search engines typically augment their information with links to similar stories. It is up to the user to determine what new information is added by them, if any. In this paper we present Tell Me More, a system that performs this task automatically: Given a seed news story, it mines the web for similar stories reported by different sources and selects snippets of text from those stories which offer new information beyond the seed story. New content may be classified as supplying: additional quotes, additional actors, additional figures and additional information depending on the criteria used to select it.

PPPeople PPPowered is an experiment in finding out if making Open Calais concepts, crawled from the web sites of the universities of York, Leeds and Sheffield navigable might aid the discovery of researchers with similar interests working in different departments in different universities.
It is made using Django-Calais, HarvestMan, Arbor.js ( a jQuery-based visualisation tool) 
 
 

Kate Byrne's informative presentation offers an overview of the Semantic Web and Natural Language Processing. It's part of the University of Edinburgh's online Multi-Agent Semantic Web Systems course.

Eldorina Andreea Alergus of the Alexandru Ioan Cuza University of Iași, the oldest higher education institution in Romania, offers this overview of OpenCalais and Linked Data.

Researchers at the University of Karlsruhe, one of Germany's leading academic institutions in science and technology, have built a newsEvent ontology to describe events and entities in a business news context. The goal is to provide aggregated, relevant news to traders in financial markets.

OpenCalais provides the annotations for clustering similar entities, events, and facts. This is the starting point for defining the concepts that should be represented in the ontology. The newsEvent ontology formalizes the information and contributes background knowledge beyond that provided by OpenCalais.
