Emergency and Poverty Relief ExpertFinder

Paola Di Maio Mae Fah Luang University

Abstract:
In this paper we propose that there are several ways that Expert-finder can be developed and applied successfully to foster communication and coordination among different, distributed teams during emergency relief operations, irrespective of their affiliation and denomination, and take this first workshop call for papers as an opportunity to invite interested parties in the humanitarian technology community to take part and collaborate in future effort to harmonise conceptual and semantic references as a step towards resolution of conflicts and imperfect communication flow

The ExpertFinder Corpus 2007 for the Benchmarking and Development of Expert-Finding Systems

Aidan Hogan DERI, National University of Ireland, Galway
Andreas Harth DERI, National University of Ireland, Galway

Abstract:
We provide a benchmark dataset for expert finding within the computer science domain. We show how large isolated data graphs from disparate structured data sources can be combined to form one, large, well-linked RDF graph and implement these methods to achieve our dataset. Such a graph lends itself to links analysis and thus opens up possibilities for analysis by expert finding techniques.
