Tables are an integral part of documents, reports and Web pages in many scientific and technical domains, compactly encoding important information that can be difficult to express in text. Table-like structures outside documents, such as spreadsheets, CSV files, log files and databases, are widely used to represent and share information. However, tables remain beyond the scope of regular text processing systems which often treat them like free text.

Wild Big Data is data that is hard to extract, understand, and use due to its heterogeneous nature and volume. It typically comes without a schema, is obtained from multiple sources and provides a challenge for information extraction and integration. We describe a way to subduing Wild Big Data that uses techniques and resources that are popular for processing natural language text. The approach is...]]></description>

UMBC study estimates that 75% of posts to English language weblogs are spam


Baltimore, December 16, 2005

 A weblog monitoring system developed by UMBC Ph.D. student Pranam
Kolari shows that a new form of spam -- spam blogs or splogs --
has quickly become a serious problem. 

 Splogs are "fake"

  <description><![CDATA[The popularity of Internet-enabled mobile technology allows people to participate in many data gathering tasks such as making scientific observation, responding to regional polls, and collecting location-specific information such as parking availability and road conditions.  We describe initial work on a prototype and framework to support applications requiring collaborative data gathering and an awareness of a mobile device user's context. The framework uses Semantic Web languages to represe...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[As computing becomes pervasive, there are increasing opportunities for the use of collaborative multiagent systems that make use of multiple sources of knowledge for validation, accuracy, and reliability improvement purposes. Application areas include multiple classifier systems, multiple sensor fusion, and redundancy-based software fault tolerant systems. The focus of this work is on the area of software fault tolerance. Most of the practical implementations of software fault tolerant strate...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[David Sifry's latest quarterly report on the state of the Blogosphere states that ``the size of the Blogosphere continues to double every six months". According to this report there are 33.5 million weblogs and many of these are actively posting. As the Blogosphere continues to grow, finding good quality feeds is becoming increasingly difficult. In this paper we present an analysis of the feeds subscribed by a set of publicly listed Bloglines users. Using the subscription information, we desc...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[This is a special edition puzzle to commemorate the AAAI-05 conference. The terms  in this AI themed word search puzzle were interlinked using a heuristic best-first search that favors shared letters, small diagrams and a uniform distribution of word directions. The empty cells were filled using a character 4-gram language model derived from the entries themselves.  The result is a word search puzzle that is compact and challenging.  Blog entry here.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Mathematician Alan Turing proposed a simple test to answer the question 'Can machines think?' nearly 75 years ago. Today, the surprising abilities of generative AI systems like ChatGPT make many wonder if we can finally respond positively. Dr. Finin will briefly cover AI's history leading up to the recent development of systems using neural networks and large language models like ChatGPT and what to expect in the next few years. He'll touch on what current systems can and cannot do, the ways ...]]></description>
