Abstract

Using inference machines is one resource used to assist the decision-making process in data processing and interpretation, which allows attributing knowledge to a set of information items. In this sense this work implements a similarity algorithm that calculates the percentage of adherence found amongst academic profiles at the University of Bras´ılia (UnB). The domain base use to provide the data for the work is that of the Lattes platform. This platform holds data on the scientific production of registered university scholars. The calculation provides a rating of the individuals and the approximations between their academic production. This is achieved by taking into account a base profile which is compared to one or more destination profiles. To run this procedure, the data held in each Curriculum Lattes is extracted, and an ontology of concepts is created that holds the data on the production to supply the information needed by the comparison task. These comparisons are made in each term of the name, for all the bibliographical production for both profiles compared. Each term can have a set of synonyms that are also taken into consideration in the comparison. And at the end the results are compiled and presented in a spreadsheet that holds the summaries for all adherence percentages that were compared. Applying the algorithm determines which people in a set have more or less proximity and a semantic link with the academic output when compared to other individuals. And that produces a similarity percentage.
