A crazy mix between GAs and RDF
Comments(0) Genetic Algorithms are actually my primary research interest (not semantic web) but I have been in the field for quite long time and I haven’t looked on basic/interesting stuff for a while. My plan is to start blogging more about GAs in the near future but for now I have a bunch of semantic web topics in my queue.
However, today I came across this video that performs the strange crossover between GAs and Semantic Web and, although the results are bad, I think it is strange enough to deserve a post.
This video (here) is a presentation on the IWSC08 of the paper Anytime Query Answering in RDF through Evolutionary Algorithms, by Eyal Oren and colleagues, which can be found here.
Note that I do not recommend using this method for your RDF queries, but still found the paper strange, if not interesting.
