Abstract

This article presents an overview of web semantics, i.e., the use and study of semantics in the context of the Web. We differentiate between explicit web semantics, building on Semantic Web standards for web-based knowledge representation (ontologies) and reasoning, and implicit web semantics, building on text and link mining from web resources.
