Soft Computing in Ontologies and Semantic Web
to be published by Springer-Verlag in the series Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing
Introduction
Soft computing technologies have been extensively used for intelligent data processing and intelligent systems and soft computing hereby becomes a crucial means of implementing intelligence. Meanwhile Semantic Web has emerged as the next generation web. The vision of the Semantic Web is to make the contents of the Web computer interpretable, enabling automation of a diversity of tasks currently performed by human beings. In the real world, however, human knowledge and natural language have a big deal of imprecision and vagueness. The research and development of soft computing in ontologies and Semantic Web are receiving increasing attention. The proposed book will cover a fast-growing topic in great depth and focuses on the technologies and applications of soft computing technologies (e.g., fuzzy logic, genetic algorithms, neural networks, rough sets, Bayesian networks, and other probabilistic techniques) in ontologies and Semantic Web. Collecting and presenting recent advances on soft computing approaches to ontologies and Semantic Web, this book will serve as a useful guide for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students in theory research, design implementation, and application development of Web intelligence.
