Device-Oriented Automatic Semantic Annotation in IoT

Algorithm 1

Annotation dictionary generating algorithm.

Input:

Non-function description training set: The format of each element in training set is (Pref, Inter, WorkCond) and

contains three components, i.e., Pref, Inter and WorkCond, respectively meaning the content about the performance,

interface and working condition of our device description framework.

Output:

A dictionary that contains three sub-dictionaries as shown in Figure 4.

A word frequency dictionary that has the same structure as .

Step  1. For each component that can be Pref, Inter and WorkCond in :

segment word and obtain a word sequence .

For each in :

If   is not in , add to and add 1 to

Else find the position of in , marked as . Then, set .

Step  2. Obtain a dictionary and

Return: and
