This paper proposes a novel approach in integrating seemingly contradictory approaches of teaching and learning via collaborative and personalised learning activities by using augmented reality museum exhibits. The paper highlights the benefits that computer supported collaborative learning and computer supported personalised learning bring or promise to bring to the learner. A proposal is given for a study that will setup a common ground for these two approaches via a location-aware augmented reality museum display. The principal aim of the study is to investigate how the process of learning collaboratively is intertwined with personalised experience of visiting the museum display. Ultimately, the result of the study will provide a new understanding of visitor's experience of museum displays, not only within the context of the museum's location, but also within the classroom where the visit truly begins and finishes.

The effort to personalise eLearning has led to the development of sophisticated Adaptive Hypermedia (AH) systems that can adapt to many aspects of the learner's characteristics or explicit preferences. However, while many of these adaptations are grounded in sound pedagogical theories, it is unclear how effective such adaptations are in supporting everyday teaching and learning processes that take place in the classroom today. This paper presents a study that explores what teachers in the UK, who have been named by their colleagues as implementing best-practice in the classroom, expect from an eLearning platform that can adapt to the individual needs of their students. The result of the study shows that there are currently some discrepancies between the teachers' expectations and what adaptive hypermedia currently offers. The paper then concludes by describing how these discrepancies can be addressed in future AH systems.

A common approach to mitigate the effects of ontology heterogeneity is to discover and express the specific correspondences (mappings) between different ontologies. An open research question is: how should such ontology mappings be represented? In recent years several proposals for an ontology mapping representation have been published, but as yet no format is officially standardised or generally accepted in the community. In this paper we will present the results of a systematic analysis of ontology mapping representations to provide a pragmatic state of the art overview of their characteristics. In particular we are interested how current ontology mapping representations can support the management of ontology mappings (sharing, re-use, alteration) as well as how suitable they are for different mapping tasks.

Social bookmarking tools become more and more popular nowadays and tagging is used to organize information and allow users to recall or search the resources. Users need to type the tags whenever they post a resource, so that a good tag recommendation system can ease the process of finding some useful and relevant keywords for users. Researchers have made lots of relevant work for recommendation system, but those traditional collaborative systems do not fit to our tag recommendation. In this paper, we present two different methods: a simple language model and an adaption of topic model. We evaluate and compare these two approaches and show that a combination of these two methods will perform better results for the task one of PKDD Challenge 2009.

With the rapid development of web2.0 technologies, tagging become much more important today to organize information and help users search the information they need with social bookmarking tools. In order to finish the second task of ECML PKDD challenge 2009, we propose a graph-based collaborative filtering tag recommendation system. We also refer to an algorithm called FolkRank, which is an adaptation of the famous Page Rank. We evaluate and compare these two approaches and show that a combination of these two methods will perform better results for our task.

This paper addresses the issue of ontology caching on semantic web. The Semantic Web is an extension of the current web in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation. Ontology serves as the metadata for defining the information on semantic web. Ontology based semantic information retrieval (semantic retrieval) is becoming more and more important. Many research and industrial works have been made so far on semantic retrieval. Ontology based retrieval improves the performance of search engine and web mining. In semantic retrieval, a great number of accesses to ontologies usually lead the ontology servers to be very low efficient. To address this problem, it is indeed necessary to cache concepts and instances when ontology server is running. Existing caching methods from database community can be used in the ontology cache. However, they are not sufficient for dealing with the problem. In the task of caching in database, usually the most frequently accessed data are cached and the recently less frequently accessed data in the cache are removed from it. Different from that, in ontology base, data are organized as objects and relations between objects. User may request one object, and then request another object according to a relation of that object. He may also possibly request a similar object that has not any relations to the object. Ontology caching should consider more factors and is more difficult. In this paper, ontology caching is formalized as a problem of classification. In this way, ontology caching becomes independent from any specific semantic web application. An approach is proposed by using machine learning methods. When an object (e.g. concept or instance) is requested, we view its similar objects as candidates. A classification model is then used to predict whether each of these candidates should be cached or not. Features in classification models are defined. Experimental results indicat
