Special Libraries Association - Annual Conference 2022
2022-07-14 - 2022-08-02
The SLA Annual Conference is the premier event for special librarians and information professionals who want to explore the latest challenges and trends in information, knowledge, and library management, refine their skills, connect with colleagues, and meet with leading product and service providers.
The PoolParty Team is represented by Heather Hedden with multiple pre-event and event sessions:
“From Taxonomy to Ontology” workshop
Description: While taxonomies support findability and information retrieval, ontologies support additional information retrieval methods, such as enabling complex queries, the exploration of different relationships, and quick access to associated data, and not just content. The Semantic Web standards, upon which modern information ontologies are built, have brought ontologies more closely aligned to taxonomies and other knowledge organization systems, than the merely computer science use of ontologies of the past. Integrating ontologies with taxonomies has many practical applications, which increasingly more companies and organizations are implementing. This educational session teaches the fundamental principles of ontologies for information science, including their definitions, types, standards, benefits, and uses, including knowledge graphs. It then instructs by ways of examples, how to extend a taxonomy to become an ontology, and then addresses issues in modeling and designing ontology classes, relations, and attributes, including best options and practices. Tools and technologies will also be addressed.Date: Thursday, July 14, 2:00 – 4:30 pm EDTFormat: Live online (Zoom)Organizer: SLA (Special Libraries Association) Continuing Education WorkshopsRegistration: $100 for SLA members, $150 for nonmembers
“Research Sources and Methodologies for Taxonomy Development”
Description: This session explores the information sources and research methodologies available to those who are starting out in taxonomy development. Information sources discussed include publicly available taxonomies and ontologies, and authoritative vs nonauthoritative sources. Research methodologies include card sorting, tree testing, actionable recommendations, content analysis, and the use of metrics in development and maintenance.Presented jointly with Marisa Hughes, Taxonomist at the American Psychological Association.Dates: starting July 30Format: Pre-recorded on-demandand
“Current Challenges and Advanced Taxonomy Topics” (Session C2)
Description: This panel will cover advanced taxonomy topics, including common and current challenges taxonomists are facing in their jobs along with various business and use case discussions. The panel will also have career discussions around what separates a senior position from a junior position and how to take the next step in your taxonomy career. Participants will obtain a grasp of common and current challenges faced by taxonomists in their roles, understand how to apply taxonomies in various advanced use cases, know more about career paths for advanced taxonomists.Date: Sunday, July 31, 4:30 – 5:30 pm EDTFormat: In-person (and hybrid)and
“Communities of Practice: Where Everybody Knows Your Name”(Session G4)
Description: Communities of Practice (CoPs) can be invaluable for connecting people with common goals and interests and facilitate the sharing of knowledge, resources, and more. Sharing best practices and knowledge can result in better ideas, innovation, and improved culture. Join this session to learn more about what a community of practice is, considerations for designing and growing your CoP, and strategies for success in maintaining a CoP.Date: Tuesday, August 2, 9:00 – 10:00 am EDTFormat: In-person (and hybrid)Organizer: SLA (Special Libraries Association) Annual ConferenceLocation: Charlotte Convention Center, Charlotte, NC (and online)

Webinar: Knowledge Based Recommender Systems
2022-08-25 16:30 - 17:30
LIVE WEBINAR

Knowledge Based Recommender Systems
Developing and successfully using powerful recommender systems



Speakers
Andreas Blumauer, CEO & Co-founder, Semantic Web Company
Robert David, CTO, Semantic Web Company

This webinar provides a comprehensive overview of possible uses of recommender systems, and why they should be central building blocks in the digital workplace and in almost all enterprise information systems, such as knowledge and content hubs, customer experience platforms, or support systems.
From a technical point of view, we will further address how recommender systems essentially work and how they can be optimized. For this purpose, different approaches will be compared and we will specifically address those recommenders that are based on knowledge graphs and semantic knowledge models.
We will explain the methodology for knowledge-based recommendations and show how we can apply taxonomies, ontologies and rules to provide recommendations with different levels of expressivity. We also show how this methodology is realized in the PoolParty platform architecture using different software components.
Especially in knowledge-intensive workflows, where decisions have to be made continuously, users benefit from accurate suggestions. The business objects (documents, experts, products, suppliers, etc.) that best fit the respective context are automatically brought into the spotlight. The possible applications are manifold and we will go into numerous examples and demos and point out, among others, applications in the environment of HR management, drug approval, technical support for software or legal.
The webinar is aimed at AI and information architects, knowledge managers, UX specialists, but also directly at department managers who are responsible for better support, more efficient process management or accurate risk management in their areas.
The core topics and questions that Robert David (CTO, Semantic Web Company) and Andreas Blumauer (Co-founder & CEO, Semantic Web Company) will address in this webinar are:
– Why are recommender systems essential for a successful digital transformation?– What are their potential and possible applications?– What methods are such systems based on, and how can they be optimized?– How do you start a project to establish a recommender in your own environment?

Applying Semantic AI platforms for Augmented IntelligenceIn recent years, augmented intelligence systems have advanced to provide humans with insights for knowledge discovery and decision making. Using a cooperative approach, these systems use powerful artificial intelligence (AI) to augment human cognitive activities. To do so, the AI capabilities have to complement human actions and therefore be explainable and controllable, while still providing implicit insights based on statistical models. Semantic Artificial Intelligence (Semantic AI), as the combination of machine learning and knowledge models, provides such a methodology.

Multilingual Taxonomies and Knowledge Graphs as a Basis for Semantic AI ApplicationsThe domain of taxonomies and ontologies is to structure and enrich data. This makes the data searchable, findable, usable, and, moreover, the basis for AI applications. Terminology as the “counterpart” is responsible for ensuring that both data and metadata in the company are uniform and thus reusable and linkable. We show how taxonomy and terminology together make corporate data fit for the future, and how you can build taxonomies and knowledge graphs alongside classic terminologies. We give concrete examples of how these can be implemented in practice.
Date:Thursday, September 15, 2022 – 10:15 to 11:15 (part of LTI)
Speaker:Florian Bauer, Chief Solutions Officer, Semantic Web CompanyKlaus Fleischmann, Kaleidoscope

Semi-automated Generation of Multilingual Domain-specific TaxonomiesThe use of and need for domain-specific taxonomies are rapidly augmenting, as part of the growing interest in multilingual knowledge management. However, creating a fine taxonomy for any domain or industry use case can require many months of intensive expert work. To face this challenge, we converge human created and curated data with automated processes and a Knowledge Graph tool. Namely, we apply cross-lingual lexicographic content from KD-Lexicala with Semantic Web Company’s PoolParty Semantic Suite to generate multilingual domain-specific taxonomies.

The North American Collaboration Summit
2022-10-12 - 2022-10-14
We are sponsors of the North American Collaboration Summit 2022, the place to learn how to harness the power of your Microsoft 365 investments including SharePoint!
Our colleague Heather Hedden, Data and Knowledge Engineer at the Semantic Web Company, will host the following session:
“ENHANCING TAXONOMY AND TAGGING IN SHAREPOINT”
Are you wondering how you can improve the quality of search results from tagging in SharePoint? The Term Store is more than just a place to store terms (tags or metadata). Full taxonomies with browsable hierarchies, search-support synonyms, definitions, multilingual terms can be supported and utilized in multiple ways. Leveraging a taxonomy’s benefits, however, requires creating a taxonomy according to best practices and standards and applying the terms with consistent tagging policies, which can be further enhanced with semi-automated tagging.
This session will provide tips for creating better taxonomies, a look at the Term Store’s capabilities and limitations, recommendations for enterprise taxonomy governance, and a solution for auto-tagging integration with the SharePoint to ensure efficient, comprehensive, and consistent tagging, which results in improved content findability and user satisfaction.

Semantic Search: Implementations In Your EnterpriseDefining the scope of enterprise search is a challenge for companies that have extensive product documentation, such as software companies. Searching product documentation needs to be part of a larger knowledge hub, but this also needs to be enabled separately for external users. The different frontend applications can pull from different content repositories, but it may be more practical to have a single taxonomy and search technology. Heather Hedden presents some tips and issues in setting up a combined knowledge hub and help pages search at a software company.

Knowledge Hubs to Master your Enterprise

Knowledge hubs provide integrated and holistic views of the originally siloed and disjointed information scattered throughout an organization. Knowledge hubs are built on a knowledge graph, which can be understood as a multi-dimensional search index that can even be used to uncover hidden knowledge.
Developing Knowledge Graphs to form the base of a solid Knowledge Hub
In this webinar, two pioneers and experienced company founders and CEOs explain the strategic importance of developing knowledge graphs in the enterprise as an essential building block for any information architecture and AI strategy.
Knowledge graphs are not only the foundation for knowledge hubs, but also for many other cognitive applications (document intelligence, recommender systems, …) that your company is probably currently planning to develop or has already developed. Using different use cases, we will describe how knowledge hubs can be used and how the underlying knowledge graphs are furthermore used in different industries.
We will also present the key success factors in developing, operating and evolving knowledge graphs, which make a real difference compared to mainstream enterprise search:

Formal domain knowledge that allows for intelligent interpretation of the meaning of the information and deriving deeper insights
Semantic metadata that augments documents, and other information artifacts, with formal descriptions using, and referring to, the domain knowledge model
Text analysis tools that allow for the automatic generation of the semantic metadata
Tools for evaluation of the text analysis models and quality control
Enterprise-grade storage and indexing infrastructure

Data, Business Objects, and Knowledge Graphs

The key to successful digital transformation of any company is to be able to dynamically generate comprehensive 360-degree views of core processes and business objects. Making holistic views of heterogeneous data landscapes available to knowledge workers in their individual contexts is the most efficient way to turn data into real competitive advantages – adding value for both employees and customers.
How are Content, Data and People Connected?
With the increasing speed of technological advancements, the pharmaceutical and healthcare industry is continually pushing the bar in innovation.
These industries require significant research and development, creating an endless amount of data and content that is very difficult to manage and find. A void is often created in what could otherwise be a potential treasure trove of data used for automation, deeper text analytics, recommender systems, and networking with other data in the enterprise.
Implementing a Knowledge Graph in combination with AI and Machine Learning algorithms helps put context and rationale into their data, allowing them to make informed decisions based on all of the information available.
Join us in our webinar led by Data & Knowledge Engineer Hakim Tafer, subject matter expert for healthcare and pharmaceuticals, to learn how data can be turned into knowledge with the help of semantics.
This webinar will present the key success factors in developing, operating and evolving Semantic AI in your enterprise with the help of PoolParty, including:

Text Mining, NLP and IDP
Document Classification, Categorization and Optimization
Best Practices to overcome Disambiguation
Corpus Management 101

World Information Architecture Day - New Hampshire 2023
2023-03-04
What is the contribution of taxonomies to information architecture? Join Heather Hedden, Data and Knowledge Engineer at Semantic Web Company, for this 1-day event at Southern New Hampshire University, Manchester, NH.
Heather will hold a workshop for “Taxonomy Creation.” Look at the description of the workshop:
Taxonomies help connect users to content, and they improve findability over keyword search alone. As such, taxonomies should be created so that they are customized to the content and to the users. How to go about this will be addressed in this interactive workshop. Content analysis and term extraction are methods to make a taxonomy match its content, and user interviews and brainstorming sessions are methods to make a taxonomy suit its users. Following an explanation of different taxonomy types and features, exercises will include analyzing a document for candidate concepts, looking at the results of a term extraction tool and of a search log report. Small breakout groups will then brainstorm a taxonomy structure and top terms to serve the identified users.
