Tackling the Curse Of Prepayment - Collaborative Knowledge Formalization Beyond Lightweight
We finally came round to write up our ideas on how to overcome the motivation and incentive problems for collaborative heavyweight knowledge formalization:
This paper argues for collaborative incremental augmentation of text retrieval as an approach that can be used to immediately show the benefits of relatively heavyweight knowledge formalization in the context of Web 2.0 style collaborative knowledge formalization. Such an approach helps to overcome the "Curse of Prepayment"; i.e. the hitherto necessary very large initial investment in formalization tasks before any benefit of Semantic Web technologies is visible. Some initial ideas about the architecture of such a system are presented and it is placed within the overall emerging trend of "people powered search".
You can read the entire paper here. I will present it at the INSEMTIVE workshop at this year's ISWC; if you're in Karlsruhe, it would be great to see you there!
