Information Service Engineering

Information Service Engineering

The information available today exceeds all limits. Access to this abundance of data is only possible via search engines and sophisticated information processing applications. To enable the transition from raw data to well-structured knowledge, technologies such as natural language processing, information retrieval, and data and knowledge mining must be applied. In this course, you will learn the fundamentals of natural language processing as well as the basics of Linked Data-based knowledge representation and machine learning to enable the transition from unstructured data to machine processable knowledge.

The information available today exceeds all limits. Access to this abundance of data is only possible via search engines and sophisticated information processing applications. To enable the transition from raw data to well-structured knowledge, technologies such as natural language processing, information retrieval, data and knowledge mining must be applied. In the course of this transition, unstructured data such as natural language text, is analyzed based on statistical language models and machine learning, to represent the contained information with the help of formal knowledge representations. In general, “Information Service Engineering” covers the conceptualization, development, and maintenance of long-term operation of services for the exploitation, processing, and dissemination of information. In this lecture, students will learn the fundamentals of natural language processing, knowledge mining, machine learning, linked data engineering, as well as information retrieval required for the development of information services.
