		<pub:abstract><![CDATA[Most open government data is encoded and published
in structured tables found in reports, on the Web, and in
spreadsheets or databases. Current approaches to generating
Semantic Web representations from such data requires
human input to create schemas and often results
in graphs that do not follow best practices for linked
data. Evidence for a table’s meaning can be found in its
column headers, cell values, implicit relations between
columns, caption and surrounding text but also requires
general and domain-specific background knowledge.
We describe techniques grounded in graphical models
and probabilistic reasoning to infer meaning (semantics)
associated with a table using background knowledge
from the Linked Open Data cloud. We represent
a table’s meaning by mapping columns to classes in an
appropriate ontology, linking cell values to literal constants,
implied measurements, or entities in the linked
data cloud (existing or new) and discovering or and
identifying relations between columns.]]></pub:abstract>
