Knowledge Preservation and Curation
In order to achieve its full value, knowledge must flow and be continuously used.Knowledge use, reuse, and repurposing has been a challenge discussed in knowledge sciences literature for over three decades.Based on a review of research and conversations with business stakeholders, the authors investigate and offer solutions to two key challenges - preserving and curating knowledge. Knowledge Preservation and Curation focusses on business value and processes rather than traditional legal and financial requirements, and further, explores preservation and curation in known and unknown business futures.Real-world examples from cutting-edge private and public sector organizations are included, and give unique insight into the world of knowledge management.

Machine Knowledge : Creation and Curation of Comprehensive Knowledge Bases
Equipping machines with comprehensive knowledge of the world’s entities and their relationships has been a longstanding goal of AI.Over the last decade, large-scale knowledge bases, also known as knowledge graphs, have been automatically constructed from web contents and text sources, and have become a key asset for search engines.This machine knowledge can be harnessed to semantically interpret textual phrases in news, social media and web tables, and contributes to question answering, natural language processing and data analytics.This monograph surveys fundamental concepts and practical methods for creating and curating large knowledge bases.It covers models and methods for discovering and curating large knowledge bases from online content, with emphasis on semi-structured web pages with lists, tables etc., and unstructured text sources.Case studies on academic projects and industrial knowledge graphs complement the survey of concepts and methods.The intended audience is students and researchers interested in a wide spectrum of topics: from machine knowledge and data quality to machine learning and data science as well as applications in web content mining and natural language understanding.It will also be of interest to industrial practitioners working on semantic technologies for web, social media, or enterprise content.

Knowledge Guided Machine Learning : Accelerating Discovery using Scientific Knowledge and Data
Given their tremendous success in commercial applications, machine learning (ML) models are increasingly being considered as alternatives to science-based models in many disciplines.Yet, these "black-box" ML models have found limited success due to their inability to work well in the presence of limited training data and generalize to unseen scenarios.As a result, there is a growing interest in the scientific community on creating a new generation of methods that integrate scientific knowledge in ML frameworks.This emerging field, called scientific knowledge-guided ML (KGML), seeks a distinct departure from existing "data-only" or "scientific knowledge-only" methods to use knowledge and data at an equal footing.Indeed, KGML involves diverse scientific and ML communities, where researchers and practitioners from various backgrounds and application domains are continually adding richness to the problem formulations and research methods in this emerging field.Knowledge Guided Machine Learning: Accelerating Discovery using Scientific Knowledge and Data provides an introduction to this rapidly growing field by discussing some of the common themes of research in KGML using illustrative examples, case studies, and reviews from diverse application domains and research communities as book chapters by leading researchers.KEY FEATURES First-of-its-kind book in an emerging area of research that is gaining widespread attention in the scientific and data science fields Accessible to a broad audience in data science and scientific and engineering fields Provides a coherent organizational structure to the problem formulations and research methods in the emerging field of KGML using illustrative examples from diverse application domains Contains chapters by leading researchers, which illustrate the cutting-edge research trends, opportunities, and challenges in KGML research from multiple perspectives Enables cross-pollination of KGML problem formulations and research methods across disciplines Highlights critical gaps that require further investigation by the broader community of researchers and practitioners to realize the full potential of KGML

Basic knowledge refers to fundamental information and skills that are essential for everyday life, such as reading, writing, and basic math. School knowledge, on the other hand, refers to the specific subjects and topics that are taught in a formal educational setting, such as history, science, and literature. While basic knowledge is universal and necessary for functioning in society, school knowledge is more specialized and focused on academic learning.

Organizational Commitment and Knowledge Sharing in Contemporary Companies
When evaluating the success of an organization, the value of employees’ organizational commitment and the process of knowledge sharing among staff must be considered.As illustrated in this volume, these two concepts are key conditions for organizational success in the contemporary world.This book explores the concept of organizational commitment, what it is, and how to use and understand the value in knowledge management and sharing for both employees and organizations as a whole.A profound analysis of the global literature exposes organizational commitment and knowledge sharing as key determinants of the effectiveness of the organization management process, including human capital management.While much space in the literature on the subject is devoted to the exploration of the above-mentioned concepts, treated as categories subject to separate analysis, the diagnosis and analysis of the relationship between them should be treated as a poorly recognized process.This book fills a research gap, providing a theoretical foundation and important information on organizational commitment and knowledge sharing, highlighting the relationship between both research categories.It will be of interest to researchers, academics, practitioners, and students in the fields of human resource management, leadership, and organizational studies.
