Automatic Metadata Generation using Associative Networks [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Information Systems, volume 27, number 2, pages 1-20, ISSN: 1046-8188, ACM Press, February 2009, 2008
In spite of its tremendous value, metadata is generally sparse and incomplete, thereby hampering the effectiveness of digital information services. Many of the existing mechanisms for the automated creation of metadata rely primarily on content analysis which can be costly and inefficient.

CellML metadata standards, associated tools and repositories [PDF]

open access: hybridPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2009
The development of standards for encoding mathematical models is an important component of model building and model sharing among scientists interested in understanding multi-scale physiological processes. CellML provides such a standard, particularly for models based on biophysical mechanisms, and a substantial number of models are now available in ...

Metadata in the BioSample Online Repository are Impaired by Numerous Anomalies [PDF]

open access: greenarXiv, 2017
The metadata about scientific experiments are crucial for finding, reproducing, and reusing the data that the metadata describe. We present a study of the quality of the metadata stored in BioSample--a repository of metadata about samples used in biomedical experiments managed by the U.S. National Center for Biomedical Technology Information (NCBI). We

A Proposal for the Measurement and Documentation of Research Software Sustainability in Interactive Metadata Repositories [PDF]

open access: greenarXiv, 2016
This paper proposes an interactive repository type for research software metadata which measures and documents software sustainability by accumulating metadata, and computing sustainability metrics over them. Such a repository would help to overcome technical barriers to software sustainability by furthering the discovery and identification of ...

On the Notion of Consistency in Metadata Repository Systems [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2005
Repository systems handle the management of metadata and meta-models. They act as data store with a custom-defined and dynamically adaptable system catalogue. This feature finds a useful application in systems such as process engines, collaborative and information systems, CASE tools and transformation engines, in which custom-defined catalogues are ...

Automated Metadata Suggestion During Repository Submission [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroinformatics, 2018
Knowledge discovery via an informatics resource is constrained by the completeness of the resource, both in terms of the amount of data it contains and in terms of the metadata that exists to describe the data. Increasing completeness in one of these categories risks reducing completeness in the other because manually curating metadata is time ...
