Osaamistavoitteet
Semantic modeling is about capturing discrete or conceptual domain information using generic (logic) modeling primitives. This enables analyzing, integrating, and searching knowledge, and deducing implicit information within specific domain(s) of interest. The methodological foundation for the course is established by logic programming and description logic(s). We apply these methods in the context of Semantic/Data Web technologies; in (ontology) modeling and in query applications. After actively studying the course, the student understands the basic concepts, methods, and applications related to semantic modeling. Further, the student knows several semantic modeling techniques and processing tools and can implement certain kinds of semantic search and inference applications using SKOS, RDF, OWL, SPARQL and Java. The main objectives of the course are to understand the role of logical descriptions in knowledge-intensive applications, and to get hands-on experience on implementing simple applications.

Ohjeita opiskelijalle osaamisen tasojen saavuttamiseksi
Working actively with the exercises and the assignments, hands-on and throughout the course, is essential. (Simply "listening" and "reading" is not enough.)
