The post DBpedia Knowledge Engineering PhD Symposium appeared first on DBpedia Association.
]]>We are creating a meeting place and scientific network around DBpedia for scientific exchange – the DBpedia Knowledge Engineering PhD Symposium – where junior and senior researchers can establish relations and collaborations and exchange ideas and knowledge. Thus, we aim to manifest a scientific community as a driver for DBpedia and Linked Data and expect synergies and network effects that will greatly improve scientific output by the involved community members. The DBpedia Knowledge Engineering PhD Symposium will be held on the third day of the week-long Data Week Leipzig 2022 event (July 4-8, 2022).
The Format
The DBpedia Knowledge Engineering PhD Symposium consists of the following highlights:
- A senior researcher starts the symposium by giving insights into their experience on “what makes a good PhD”.
- Several PhD students will present their thesis and topics. On the one hand, they will receive feedback and on the other hand, the symposium participants will gain insight 1) on how they structure and define their PhDs, 2) on what the current trends are and 3) on potential connecting A dedicated poster session where all PhD participants can bring their poster and discuss with the audience during the coffee breaks. Please contact the organizers if interested in presenting a poster!
- A community session, where we discuss how to organize the research network around DBpedia.
- In the afternoon we will walk through the city center of Leipzig and also visit the LivingLab at the University of Leipzig. In the evening we will meet in a nearby pub and discuss the PhD topics of the day.
Submission of presentations
We are looking for presentations within the broader scope of the knowledge engineering field. From knowledge extraction, integration and curation, to knowledge publishing, quality assurance and knowledge exploitation in AI solutions. Each PhD presenter will receive a 30 minutes slot which includes 20 minutes for presentation of the research topic and 10 minutes for questions, feedback and discussion.
The aim of the DBpedia Knowledge Engineering PhD Symposium is to provide an opportunity to PhD students to present their PhD-related work-in-progress and receive feedback on their current work. In an open, supportive and non-confrontational environment the students will present their thesis in relation to the state-of-the-art, the identified gaps, addressed challenges, considered methods for exploitation, datasets for validation, and the overall evaluation approach. The colloquium will help PhD students to strengthen and shape their work as they progress towards their PhD degree. Moreover, the colloquium is a great opportunity to build a network of peers for their future career. The ultimate objective of the colloquium is to promote excellence in PhD research in the knowledge engineering field.

Basic Plans
Twitter : #DBpediaAmsterdam
The DBpedia Project in 2014: from a hosted data set to a public data infrastructure for the Web of Data. As the DBpedia community has grown extensively, we think that the time has come to get everybody in one large room and meet. We hope to get together three major groups involved in DBpedia: the DBpedia developers and maintainers, the communities of the individual DBpedia language chapters, and, of course, the DBpedia users. The meeting will be held at VU Amsterdam on Jan 30th and is co-located with the PiLOD 2.0 meeting one day earlier. The first session will be a discussion about the DBpedia State-of-Play, where core members of the DBpedia community present certain aspects of DBpedia and the audience is invited to give feedback and ask questions. The second session will be dedicated to users of DBpedia. We would like to invite companies, organisations, and other project to briefly present their use cases for DBpedia and give input on how we can improve DBpedia for users. Free slots still available, apply here.
After the lunch, we plan to have three break-out sessions for the topics (1) DBpedia and Library, (2) Linking text to LOD entities, and (3) What is wrong with DBpedia? Developers discussion on how to improve our baby. Finally, the last parallel sessions are planned as: DBpedia tutorial, DBpedia I18N developers’ session, and a Local Dutch DBpedia Chapter Meeting, with the additional possibility to continue break out sessions.
About DBpedia
(Source: Semantic Web Journal article)
The DBpedia community project extracts structured, multilingual knowledge from Wikipedia and makes it freely available using Semantic Web and Linked Data standards. The extracted knowledge, comprising more than 1.8 billion facts, is structured according to an ontology maintained by the community. The knowledge is obtained from different Wikipedia language editions, thus covering more than 100 languages, and mapped to the community ontology. The resulting data sets are linked to more than 30 other data sets in the Linked Open Data (LOD) cloud. The DBpedia project was started in 2006 and has since attracted large interest in research and practice. A central part of the LOD cloud, it serves as a connection hub for other data sets. For the research community, DBpedia provides a testbed serving real world data spanning many domains and languages. Due to the continuous growth of Wikipedia, DBpedia also provides an increasing added value for data acquisition, re-use, and integration tasks within organisations. In this system report, we give an overview over the DBpedia community project, including its architecture, technical implementation, maintenance, internationalisation, and usage statistics, and showcase some popular DBpedia applications.
Travel Grants / Sponsorship
Some of the DBpedia developers work on DBpedia in their free-time and will not have institutional funding to come to the meeting. Therefore, we are still looking for sponsors for travel grants (as well as coffee and food for the sessions). If you are interested in sponsoring this meeting, please email our sponsorship chair to request more information.
Participants can apply for a travel grant by filling out a form or emailing Sebastian (who will fill out the same form on your behalf 😉 ). Assuming we acquire a sponsor, these grants will be awarded depending on community activity (i.e., Google Summer of Code participation, Git Commits to DBpedia framework, activity on the mailing lists, etc.) and standing.

| Bridging the Gap between DBpedia and Natural Language, Christina Unger from CITEC – Lately we released the first version of a lexicon that captures linguistically rich information about verbalizations of 354 DBpedia classes and the 300 most frequent DBpedia properties in English (soon also Spanish and German). Such a lexicon can prove useful for a wide range of NLP applications over DBpedia. However, in order to keep the construction, extension and maintenance of such a multilingual lexicon feasible, it is necessary to include the DBpedia community in crowd-sourcing lexicalizations. We would like to discuss ways to do this and show possible benefits. (see video) | |

| Marco Brattinga and Arjen Santema, Land Registry and Mapping Agency (Kadaster)
The Dutch Cadastre exploits several national key registers (cadastral registration, topographic map) and information nodes (addresses and buildings, real estate value, cables and pipelines, large scale topographic map). Marco Brattinga is principal consultant at Ordina. Arjen Santema works as consultant tactical information management and innovations at the Cadastre. They share the passion for semantics and practices for publishing data and metadata on the web. Together they developed a framework to describe the data and metadata in a registration in relation to a concept schema that describes what the registration is about and helps to understand this. By separating the concept schema from the data and metadata model they created a taxonomy with domain experts, that contains implementation independent definitions. On the other side they built a data model or an ontology for specific goals. They will present the ideas behind this framework and show some examples from the cadastral registration, the topographic map and the information node addresses and buildings. |

| 16:00 – 17:15 | BS1: DBpedia Dev session / chair: Dimitris Kontokostas
Room: A Session for developers to talk about technical issues and challenges in DBpedia including:
BS2: DBpedia Tutorial by Markus Freudenberg, AKSW/KILT Room: B a one hour tutorial about Linked Data and DBpedia The tutorial will start with an open talk to assess the level of the audience and then either start with a general introduction to Linked Data or go more into detail and provide an overview and tips and tricks on DBpedia components and what we can do with it. BS3: DBpedia & NLP (partially focused on Cultural Heritage) chair: Sebastian Hellmann, AKSW/KILT Room: Auditorium In this session we will investigate the application of Linked Data on Language Technologies, especially entity linking. The domain is focused partially on Digital Humanities (20) Results of the LIDER project by Christina Unger, CITEC: One of the outcomes of the LIDER support action are guidelines to facilitate the discovery, reuse and exploitation of existing linguistic resources, aiming at the establishment of a new Linked Open Data (LOD) based ecosystem of free, interlinked, and semantically interoperable language and media resources (corpora, dictionaries, lexical and syntactic metadata, images, etc.) for multilingual, cross-media content analytics. In order to show how these guidelines can be realized, I will showcase example services for discovering and querying relevant linguistic resources and for using and linking LOD-aware NLP services. The full presentation is available here. (20) TellMeFirst A Knowledge Domain Discovery Framework by Giuseppe Futia: TellMeFirst (TMF) is an open-source framework that leverages the DBpedia knowledge base and the Wikipedia corpus for classifying documents, achieved by computing a similarity score between the target document and an initial training set. Each DBpedia entity identifies a document of the training set that includes all Wikipedia paragraphs in which the entity appears as wikilink. The training set is composed by entities covered in DBpedia from different knowledge domains (such as Cultural Heritage, Politics, History, Science, Sport). Nevertheless, cultural institutes, companies, and public administrations are much more interested in a classification system that exploits only a subset of these entities, specific for their purposes and needs. During the talk, we will introduce both the transformation pipeline (based on DBpedia Spotlight project) for building a general-purpose training set and a configurable process for building a domain training set. Then, we will report on the differences between classification results obtained by evaluating TMF with the two training sets in an example scenario. The full presentation is available here.

]]>The post 7th DBpedia Community Meeting in Leipzig 2016 appeared first on DBpedia Association.
]]>After years of discussion, the DBpedia community has finally found consensus on how to step into the future. During this meeting, we will come together to celebrate this achievement and also discuss and hold a vote to fill the DBpedia Association with life. Other subjects will reflect the efforts of the DBpedia community on a general Public Data Infrastructure for a large, multilingual, Semantic Knowledge Graph. In addition, there will be a showcase session on current developments and a DBpedia Dev session about technical issues and challenges in DBpedia as well as hands-on tutorials for DBpedia newbies.
Highlights include:
- DBpedia Ontology Discussion: The DBpedia Ontology and current developments in ontology management will be adressed by special guest Monica Solanki from Oxford University, a leading expert in this field.
- DBpedia & DBpedia+ Data Stack (v. 2016-04) release
- DBpedia Spotlight session dedicated to setting an agenda for future sptlight development.
- Discussion about fundraising and how funding is acquired by the DBpedia Community
- A vote for the seats in the board of trustees
- Tutorials to learn about DBpedia and its tools
- Two keynotes that showcase the usefullness of DBpedia in real world appliactions.
- Space for the community to show their tools and success in presentations and posters
The success of the last two community meetings in Palo Alto with approx. 100 attendees and in The Hague with 120 attendees and the increasing number of specific language chapters proves that the DBpedia community is constantly growing and gaining more and more significance and impact in the Semantic Web Community.
