A Knowledge-Base for Web Information Integration and Retrieval

Domain knowledge-base construction plays an important role in intelligent web structured information processing. The paper provides a basic resource construction technique for semantic web information processing. Firstly it puts forward a Chinese domain knowledge composition model. Then it introduces how to construct special domain knowledge-base. The construction mainly based on database schemas, web query page interfaces and traditional knowledge construction methods Techniques about knowledge acquisition, knowledge representation, knowledge storage and reasoning are discussed in detail. The main knowledge architecture is a semantic network which is constituted by many kinds of knowledge units. We have worked on it for web Chinese information in several domains and achieved tangible results. The research is valuable to large scale applications of intelligent information integration and information retrieval on the Web.
