Towards a Blockchain based digital identity verification, record attestation and record sharing system

The Covid-19 pandemic has made individuals and organizations to rethink the way of handling identity verification and credentials sharing particularly in quarantined situations. In this study, we investigate the inefficiencies of traditional identity systems, and discuss how a proper implementation of Blockchain technology would result in safer, more secure, privacy respecting and remote friendly identity systems. As a result, we propose a Blockchain based framework for digital identity verification, record attestation and record sharing, and we explain the framework in details with certain use cases. Our proposed framework promotes individuals to fully control their identity data and govern the level of the identity data sharing.

Using RDF Summary Graph For Keyword-based Semantic Searches

The Semantic Web began to emerge as its standards and technologies developed rapidly in the recent years. The continuing development of Semantic Web technologies has facilitated publishing explicit semantics with data on the Web in RDF data model. This study proposes a semantic search framework to support efficient keyword-based semantic search on RDF data utilizing near neighbor explorations. The framework augments the search results with the resources in close proximity by utilizing the entity type semantics. Along with the search results, the system generates a relevance confidence score measuring the inferred semantic relatedness of returned entities based on the degree of similarity. Furthermore, the evaluations assessing the effectiveness of the framework and the accuracy of the results are presented.

Dynamic Discovery of Type Classes and Relations in Semantic Web Data

The continuing development of Semantic Web technologies and the increasing user adoption in the recent years have accelerated the progress incorporating explicit semantics with data on the Web. With the rapidly growing RDF (Resource Description Framework) data on the Semantic Web, processing large semantic graph data have become more challenging. Constructing a summary graph structure from the raw RDF can help obtain semantic type relations and reduce the computational complexity for graph processing purposes. In this paper, we addressed the problem of graph summarization in RDF graphs, and we proposed an approach for building summary graph structures automatically from RDF graph data. Moreover, we introduced a measure to help discover optimum class dissimilarity thresholds and an effective method to discover the type classes automatically. In future work, we plan to investigate further improvement options on the scalability of the proposed method.
