A Computational Knowledge Elicitation and Sharing System for mental health case management of the social service industry

Narrative data provide rich information and knowledge to the workers. However, existing systems mainly served as a workflow system, a reporting system, or a database system for storing this kind of information. The massive amount of unstructured narrative data makes it extremely difficult to be shared and reused. Actual knowledge sharing and reuse among the workers is still limited. This paper presents a Computational Knowledge Elicitation and Sharing System which attempts to elicit knowledge from individuals as well as a team and converts it into a structured format and shared among the team. The proposed system accomplishes several current technologies in knowledge-based system, artificial intelligence and natural language processing, which converts the narrative knowledge of knowledge workers into a concept mapping representation. With a sufficient number of narratives, patterns are revealed and an aggregate concept map for all participating members is produced. It converts the unstructured text into a more structured format which helps to summarize and share the knowledge that can be taken in handling different case management issues. Such integration is considered to be novel. A prototype system has been implemented based on the method successfully in the mental healthcare of a social service organization for handling their case management issues. An experiment has been carried out for measuring the accuracy for converting the unstructured data into the structured format. The theoretical results are found to agree well with the experimental results.

A System for Ontology-Based Sharing of Expert Knowledge in Sustainability Science

Work towards creation of a knowledge sharing system for sustainability science through the application of semantic data modeling is described. An ontology grounded in description logics was developed based on the ISO 15926 data model to describe three types of sustainability science conceptualizations: situational knowledge, analytic methods, and scenario frameworks. Semantic statements were then created using this ontology to describe expert knowledge expressed in research proposals and papers related to sustainability science and in scenarios for achieving sustainable societies. Semantic matching based on logic and rule-based inference was used to quantify the conceptual overlap of semantic statements, which shows the semantic similarity of topics studied by different researchers in sustainability science, similarities that might be unknown to the researchers themselves.

Acquisition of Service Practical Knowledge Based on Ontologized Medical Workflow

It is ideal to provide medical services as patient-oriented. The medical staff members share the final goals to recover patients. Toward the goals, each staff has practical knowledge to achieve patient-oriented medical services. But each medical staff has his/her own sense of value that comes from his/her expertness. Therefore the practical knowledge sometimes conflicts. The aim of this research is to develop an intelligent system to support externalizing practical knowledge, and sharing it among medical staff members. In this paper, the author propose a method to model the sense of value of each medical staff as his/her understanding about medical service workflow, and to obtain the practical knowledge using the models. The method was experimented by an implementation of knowledge-sharing system base on the method and by its trial use in Miyazaki University Hospital.

Constructing Product Knowledge-Sharing System for Internet Transaction-Matching Model

This study explores the construction of an intermediary as a product knowledge-sharing system for design industry with the advanced features of the Extensible Markup Language (XML). In addition, to make the system an object-oriented one, Unified Modeling Language (UML) is used for the modeling of the system. With XML files serving as the foundation for exchange and storage format of the knowledge in the transaction process, the system platform is able to integrate all sorts of product information involving various concepts and related features of different fields such as the design, production, and marketing of a product into a transaction process intermediary program. Having the technology of XML as the foundation of the said transaction process intermediary program, not only will the after transaction knowledge be stored systematically but the information in the system can be transmitted conveniently amongst the heterogeneous systems of users, and can be used with uniformity. In addition, the specific text file markers and text definitions in the XML allow users to search for the information more accurately and efficiently.

Five steps to creating a global knowledge-sharing system: Siemens' ShareNet

Executive Overview Knowledge-sharing systems have been implemented in various global companies during the last few years. However, many of them have failed because they were limited to technical solutions and did not consider the organizational and cross-cultural factors that are necessary to make a knowledge-sharing platform successful. We identified Siemens — a major player in the electronic industry — as a benchmark company in the global transfer of management knowledge. Based on in-depth interviews with executives within Siemens, we describe the five steps with which Siemens successfully established its global knowledge-sharing system “ShareNet.” The examination of Siemens' strategies for coping with the organizational and cross-cultural challenges that arose in each phase should be instructive to other organizations using or aiming to create a global knowledge-sharing system.

Farm-to-table: A Situation Awareness Model for Food Safety Assurance for Porous Borders

Aldous Huxley's Brave NewWorld (1932) was far more prescient to the situation of food safety today than we dare to consider. When people are seduced rather than compelled to live in harmony, evil is not so obvious because no one is looking. In the instance of food safety, changes in world trade, consumer demand for variety, and an increasingly complex regulatory system create challenges to effective vigilance and mitigation. It remains a critical reality that in any "farm-to-table" scenario, multiple sources, suppliers, and steps along the process pose a threat to the safety of the product. Here we discuss the effect of "porous borders" with reference to spread of disease and bio-threats to food fabrication practices and regulatory agencies. We show that understanding correspondences between the morphology of global food production and product tracing/tracking technologies are critical to the real-time performance of situation awareness prediction systems. Our reconstruction of the events associated with securing safe food opens a pathway to advancing the primitives necessary for an appropriate real-time knowledge-sharing system for start-to-finish data sources that assist detection/prediction assurance models.

The Prototype Model of a Web-Based Knowledge Sharing and Collaboration Support System for the Building Industry

A broad literature review reveals that the majority of existing software systems for the building industry are data/document storage systems connected to a database. High-level software applications with ability to analyse data and share knowledge are rare in the building industry. This paper proposes a web-based system for the building industry, which focuses on the implementation and sharing of expert knowledge, and provides a platform to support online collaboration. The logic design, system architecture and functionalities of the prototype system are presented. The current stage of developing the prototype system is reported and its successful completion will enable full implementation of a knowledge sharing and management system.

Art, design & entertainment - Garden variety pervasive computing

Unseen, a knowledge-sharing experience machine for outdoor public spaces, continuously collects real-time data on plants, insects, and animals through a multicamera vision system. Unseen's interpretation and sharing of this data invites visitors to reconsider and question their preconceptions about wildlife. We describe the conception, implementation, and evaluation of a knowledge-sharing system for outdoor spaces. Like a nature interpretation center, our fully automated, machine vision-based outdoor installation shows visitors interesting facts about the area they are visiting.
