Perspectives on semantics of the place from online resources
We present a methodology for extraction of semantic indexes related to a given geo-referenced place. These lists of words correspond to the concepts that should be semantically related to that place, according to a number of perspectives. Each perspective is provided by a different online resource,...

| description | We present a methodology for extraction of semantic indexes related to a given geo-referenced place. These lists of words correspond to the concepts that should be semantically related to that place, according to a number of perspectives. Each perspective is provided by a different online resource, namely upcoming.org, Flickr, Wikipedia or open Web search (using Yahoo! search engine). We describe the process by which those lists are obtained, present experimental results and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the methodology and of each perspective. |
