AI-Based Model for Knowledge Evaluation in Public Organizations
In the construction of knowledge bases, it is very important to evaluate the quality of the knowledge entered into them. Artificial Intelligence (AI) development has led to the research of knowledge management tools for multi-user environments, among many other AI applications. In the knowledge management field, the construction of ontologies as knowledge repositories using various sources requires a means of evaluation of all: the input ontologies and the integration process on the output ontology. The results obtained from the evaluations serve as guides to measure the quality of the repository.

Resilience has become more popular among researchers and practitioners of public governance. The variance-based structural equation modelling (SEM) based on the partial least squares path modelling method (PLS) has been used to analyze the data collected. Researchers found that social capital, primarily relational and cognitive, directly and significantly affects resilience, but transformational leadership impacts indirectly.
