About us
INSEMTIVES is a FP7 collaborative project funded by through the grant number FP7-231181 under EU Objective 4.3. It brings together program computer scientists, software engineers, economists, social scientists and end-users from six European countries, coordinated by STI Innsbruck.
In a Nutshell
WHAT
INSEMTIVES is about bridging the gap between human and computational intelligence and providing incentives for users to contribute to the massive creation of semantic content.
WHY
The availability of a critical mass of useful machine-understandable data and the natural limitations of automation in semantic content creation-related tasks are hampering the worldwide uptake of semantic technologies. Technologies and applications are not designed to motivate users to engage in manually creating semantic content, or extending and revising existing one.
HOW
INSEMTIVES combines research with development and real-world applications. The foundations are methods and guidelines facilitating semantic content creation in an incentives-driven manner. They underly the INSEMTIVES platform (back-end) and various end-user tools for semantic content creation (front-end).These technology components are used in three case studies targeting the management of enterprise content, the annotation of Web service artifacts, and the management of multimedia in online worlds and games.
