RE: [xml-dev] Data mining the semantic web? (was RE: [xml-dev] Se mantic Web)

Hello

I would like to recommend this interesting workshop:

	Semantic Web Mining
	2nd Workshop at ECML/PKDD-2002,
	20 August 2002, Helsinki, Finland

	The idea of Semantic Web Mining is to improve the results of
	Web Mining by exploiting the new semantic structures in the web,
	as well as to use Web Mining to help build the Semantic Web. The
	Semantic Web is based on a vision of Tim Berners-Lee. He suggests
	to enrich the web by machine processable information which is
	organized on different levels (see
	http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/Semantic.html). For Web Mining,
	the levels from XML and RDF to ontologies and logics are of
	particular interest.

	Web Mining applies data mining techniques on the web. Three areas
	can be distinguished: Web usage mining analyzes user behavior, Web
	structure mining explores hyperlink structure, and Web content
	mining exploits the contents of the documents in the Web.
