Problems & Challenges

Research vs Development

http://dbpedia.org
Meetup Mannheim– 2014/02/23 – Page 7

Problems & Challenges
•

DBpedia is excellent for Research:
•

DBpedia - A crystallization point for the web of data
by Lehmann and Bizer ~ 900 citations

•

High number of research contributions using DBpedia

•

Good number of FP7 and also H2020 projects

•

Outreach into domains beyond the Semantic Web:

http://dbpedia.org
Meetup Mannheim– 2014/02/23 – Page 8

Problems & Challenges
DBpedia structure is not yet fit to bridge the gap to Development
• Research prototypes lack:
– maturity, documentation and usability
• Industrial requirements:

Goals of the DBpedia Project
Extract structured data from all available content created by Wikipedians (and other
open-data projects) in all languages
●
Cross-national DBpedia chapter interlinking and data fusion/completion
●
Uphold a free, public data infrastructure to exploit this wealth of data
●
Support the Linked Data Community (and in particular the DBpedia Community) to
clean, publish, enrich, interlink their data
●
Move from Research on to Development
●
Bring together publishers and consumers
