We explore the symbiosis of real time analysis and linked data. Representing social signals as structured data will enable flexibility in handling the information overload of those interested in collectively analyzing social signals for sensemaking.

This is work in progress by Pablo N. Mendes (Kno.e.sis), Alex Passant (DERI), Pavan Kapanipathi (Kno.e.sis) and Dr. Amit P. Sheth (Kno.e.sis). It builds upon Twitris and SMOB.

Quick Info

  • Real Time: the load estimate for the health care topic drinking from the firehose is
    • 1 post per second
    • 35K triples per hour (tph) or 10 triples per second, steady over HTTP SPARQL Update. Feasible?
  • Writeup: Get it from here.

Pitching

Some motivation: decentralized semantic microblogging.

As reported by ReadWriteWeb recently, during an emergency it’s practically impossible to get status updates on things like roads, hospitals, airports, and people using Twitter [1]

Twitter as a poor vehicle for marketing [2]. Many people make up hashtags as they tweet, exploding the semantic graph, creating more semantic dispersion.

Some promising new tools that can help you quickly put a hashtag in context — or let people easily look up the meaning of the hashtags you launch or use [3]

Wouldn’t it be cool if Twitter had a topic backbone and you could snap your tweets to it as you write them? [4]

These companies call it real-time web intelligence,

Siegel’s rule for information life span: The half-life relevance of a piece of pushed information is about the same as the frequency of the medium. [5]
