Research Abstract

We have studied management methods for annotation data on information, and coreference analysis in order to keep the quality of information on Web servers high. We have developed a system for storage and retrieval of RDF data representing knowledge resource as well as integrated usage system of retrieval engines and user generated knowledge resource Wikipedia. Also, we have developed a system for consistency analysis and a method for incremental update of causal relation networks.
