Overview of a Framework for Ubiquitous User Models Interoperability

2016 , Martinez-Villaseñor, Lourdes , González-Mendoza, Miguel

Researchers in the user modeling community have been interested in sharing and reuse profile information from heterogeneous sources. Ubiquitous user model interoperability allows enrichment of adaptive systems obtaining a better understanding of the user, and decreases the effort associated with creating a user model. We present a framework that enables the interoperability between profile suppliers and consumers with a mixed approach that consist in central ubiquitous user model ontology and a process of concept alignment. The central ontology is a flexible representation of a ubiquitous user model to cope with the dynamicity of a distributed multi-application environment that provides mediation between profile suppliers and consumers. The process of concept alignment automatically discovers the semantic mappings in order to interpret the information from heterogeneous sources and integrate them into a ubiquitous user model. © ICST Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering 2017.

Process of Concept Alignment for Interoperability between Heterogeneous Sources

2013 , Martinez-Villaseñor, Lourdes , González-Mendoza, Miguel

Some researchers in the community of user modeling envision the need to share and reuse information scattered over different user models of heterogeneous sources. In a multi-application environment each application and service must repeat the effort of building a user model to obtain just a narrow understanding of the user. Sharing and reusing information between models can prevent the user from repeated configurations, help deal with application and services’ “cold start” problem, and provide enrichment to user models to obtain a better understanding of the user. But gathering distributed user information from heterogeneous sources to achieve user models interoperability implies handling syntactic and semantic heterogeneity. In this paper, we present a process of concept alignment to automatically determine semantic mapping relations that enable the interoperability between heterogeneous profile suppliers and consumers, given the mediation of a central ubiquitous user model. We show that the process of concept alignment for interoperability based in a two-tier matching strategy can allow the interoperability between social networking applications, FOAF, Personal Health Records (PHR) and personal devices.

Consumption of Profile Information from Heterogeneous Sources to Leverage Human-Computer Interaction

2013 , Martinez-Villaseñor, Lourdes , González-Mendoza, Miguel

Ubiquitous computing brings new challenges to system and application designers. It is not enough to deliver information at any time, at any place and in any form; information must be relevant to the user. Ubiquitous user model interoperability allows enrichment of adaptive systems obtaining a better understanding of the user, but conflict resolution is necessary to deliver the best suited values despite the existence of international standards for different concepts. In this paper, we present the algorithm of conflict resolution to consume of profile information from the ubiquitous user model. We illustrate the enrichment of user models with one elemental concept for human-computer interaction: the language concept.

Fuzzy-Based Approach of Concept Alignment

2017 , Martinez-Villaseñor, Lourdes , González-Mendoza, Miguel

The need to share and reuse information has grown in the new era of Internet of things and ubiquitous computing. Researchers in ontology and schema matching use mapping approaches in order to achieve interoperability between heterogeneous sources. The use of multiple similarity measures that take into account lexical, structural and semantic properties of the concepts is often found in schema matching for the purpose of data integration, sharing and reusing. Mappings identified by automatic or semi-automatic tools can never be certain. In this paper, we present a fuzzy-based approach to combine different similarity measures to deal with scenarios where ambiguity of terms hinder the process of alignment and add uncertainty to the match. © 2017, Springer International Publishing AG.
