Summary: Motivation: This research developed a Python library called mOWL for machine learning with ontologies formalized in the Web Ontology Language (OWL). MOWL implements ontology embedding methods to map information in formal knowledge bases and ontologies into vector spaces, preserving properties and relations in ontologies. It also provides methods for similarity computation, deductive inference, and zero-shot learning. The library was demonstrated on knowledge-based predictions of protein-protein interactions using the gene ontology and gene-disease associations using phenotype ontologies.

Summary: With the widespread of data resources on the internet, overlapping between these resources can provide researchers with more information. Extracting and calculating the semantic similarity between these resources is a challenging task due to their varying descriptions. To address this issue, the paper presents a new semantic similarity method that considers different factors to calculate the semantic similarity between different resources. By utilizing node descriptions and relations from multiple ontologies, this method strengthens the similarity relations between resources and discovers new semantic similarities.

Summary: Computing the semantic similarity between pairs of terms is crucial for various shared data applications. One way to determine term similarity is to assess their word similarity using knowledge resources like ontologies or corpora. Information-theoretic approaches have shown promise by computing concept information content from ontologies. Choosing a suitable subsumer, called Consensus Common Subsumer (CCS), among common ancestors of two concepts can impact the quality of term similarity assessment.

Summary: This paper proposes a comprehensive method for semantic similarity and relatedness based on WordNet and Wikipedia. By integrating the semantic knowledge of both resources at the feature level, the proposed method combines semantic similarity and relatedness into a single measure. Experimental results demonstrate its effectiveness over existing measures on various benchmarks.

Summary: The study conducted three experiments to evaluate various measures of semantic relatedness and their ability to predict the recall of related and unrelated word lists in immediate memory tests. The results showed that lists of semantically related words are better recalled than lists of unrelated words. Different measures had slightly different predictions on the recall of related and unrelated word lists.

Summary: This paper presents a model called WBLM that improves the link-based vector representations of concepts by exploring the Wikipedia link structure as a semantic graph and assigning weights to connected links. Experimental results show that the proposed WBLM model significantly improves the SS and SR computation accuracy of the WOLM and WTLM models.

Summary: Semantic similarity plays a crucial role in bioinformatics applications such as protein-protein interaction prediction and disease-gene association discovery. However, existing semantic similarity measures are general-purpose and may not align well with specific biological perspectives. In this study, we introduce a supervised machine learning approach to tailor aspect-oriented semantic similarity measures for different biological views. The results demonstrate the superiority of our method in fitting semantic similarity models to diverse biological perspectives compared to commonly used manual combinations of semantic aspects.

Summary: This study proposes a method to assess the similarity of scientific outputs based on keyword co-occurrence matrices, which can be applied to ranking, research monitoring, and scientific policy-making. The method involves transforming keyword co-occurrence networks into scientosemantic domains and calculating fuzzy distances between domains using frequency, development, and investment appeal indicators. The bibliometric data from appropriate queries on SCOPUS is used to derive scientosemantic domains. The results show that the distances based on investment appeal are greater than those based on frequency and development, with the largest distances observed for technology-related keywords.

Summary: Most mediation systems use caching policies, with semantic caching being a widely adopted strategy. However, the current semantic caching approach compares syntax rather than semantics, leading to delays when multiple requests are stored in the cache. This work proposes a new ontology-based semantic approach and algorithm to filter regions in the cache that do not semantically cover a user query, optimizing cache usage for faster retrieval.

Summary: Biomedical text summarization (BTS) is an emerging area of work and research that supports sustainable healthcare applications. However, due to the rapid growth in biomedical literature and its diversities, effective text summarization is becoming more challenging. This study aims to conduct a comprehensive literature review of significant works in BTS and analyze the relevance and efficacy of deep learning and context-aware feature extraction techniques.

Summary: With the increase in waste streams, industrial sorting has become a major issue. Some industrialists have designed sorting machines that can reliably discriminate between several types of plastics, but are not suitable for dark plastics. Mid-wavelength infrared technology can be used instead of near infrared technology, but the new spectral range is poorer in terms of wavelength for some plastics of interest. Cautious sorting enables containers dedicated to specific materials to contain fewer impurities, leading to higher-quality secondary raw materials.

Summary: The diversity of item lists suggested by recommender systems significantly impacts user satisfaction. Existing diversity optimization approaches may not be effective for different recommendation approaches due to the diversity level of candidate lists depending on the recommender system used. Individual users' diversity needs are often ignored in post-processing diversification. This study systematically compares diversity performances of recommendation models in different domains and proposes a diversification post-processing objective that considers specific users' diversity needs.

Summary: This paper investigates the use of knowledge graphs for post-hoc recommendation explanations. Existing approaches rely on overlap properties to describe user liked items and recommended ones, but do not fully leverage the property hierarchy of knowledge graphs, which may lead to flawed explanations. The authors propose an approach that considers the whole property hierarchy and validate its effectiveness through a user study.

Summary: The emergence of Fitness-Fatigue impulse response models (FFMs) has allowed for the investigation of training effects on athletic performance. However, their effectiveness in describing and predicting performance is limited due to simplified physiological processes and a univariate consideration of factors. Therefore, machine-learning methods can enhance performance prediction by incorporating physiological representations and multivariate algorithms.
