Abstract

The Global Brain Semantic Web - a Semantic Web interleaving a large number of human and machine computation - has great potential to overcome some of the issues of the current Semantic Web. Semantic technologies have been deployed in the context of a wide range of information management tasks, for which machine-driven algorithmic techniques aiming at full automation do not reach a level of accuracy that many production environments require. Enhancing automatic techniques with human computation capabilities is becoming a viable solution in many cases. CrowdSem2013 charts the research agenda with interactive sessions to brainstorm potential applications of collective intelligence to solving AI hard semantic web problems.
