One of the more practical problems is the deduction of knowledge from partly large but varying, ambiguous, or just too specific information sources (metadata, attributes, features, etc.). This paper presents a stepwise knowledge modeling approach based on two self-contained, trainable rule sets. Following the principle of divide-and-conquer, the supposed approach separately tackles the problem of general translation (normalization) of diverse information sources and their individual interpretation and semantics for the user.enText/Conference Paper1617-5468
