Discovering Associations among Semantic Links
Junsheng Zhang, Huilin Wang, Yunchuan Sun · 2009
Semantic link network is a semantic data model to manage Web resources and semantic relations among them. Its nodes represent Web resources, and its semantic links between the nodes represent the semantic relations between the resources. This paper studies two kinds of associations between semantic link types (relationships): reasoning associations and statistical associations. We propose the approaches to calculating the two kinds of association degrees respectively. Besides, algorithms are developed to discover the statistical association rules. Association between semantic link types are useful in relational query in semantic link networks.
