It is developing contexts for that project, such as the dialectic audio pronunciation files, WOTD, and (probably in a future release) a rich interface to the translation data embedded in Wiktionary articles. At the same time, it is removing some of the Wikipedia context, like the extensive geographic code. In the process the project is helping to lay a foundation for a Mediawiki app framework that is not specific to any of the Wikimedia Foundation projects. But the UCOSP is primarily about putting students in an opensource production scenario, giving them real world tasks in an apprenticeship model and helping them develop skills to work in a geographically dispersed team. In other words, training potential WMF developers. Amgine

UBY - A Large-Scale Unified Lexical-Semantic Resource (UBY 1.0) released
by Christian Meyer 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

(apologies for X-posting) We are pleased to announce the release of UBY 1.0 - a large-scale lexical-semantic resource for natural language processing (NLP) based on the ISO standard Lexical Markup Framework (LMF): http://www.ukp.tu-darmstadt.de/data/uby/ UBY combines a wide range of information from expert-constructed and collaboratively constructed resources for English and German. Currently, UBY holds structurally and semantically interoperable versions of nine resources in two languages: * English WordNet, Wiktionary, Wikipedia, FrameNet and VerbNet, * German Wikipedia, Wiktionary and GermaNet, and multilingual OmegaWiki. A subset of these resources is linked at the word sense level. There are monolingual sense alignments between VerbNet–FrameNet and VerbNet–WordNet as well as between WordNet–Wikipedia and WordNet–Wiktionary. In addition, UBY provides cross-lingual sense alignments between WordNet and German OmegaWiki, also including the inter-language links given in Wikipedia and OmegaWiki. All resources in UBY are represented according to our LMF lexicon model, UBY-LMF. UBY-LMF captures lexical information at a ﬁne-grained level by employing a large number of Data Categories from ISOCat. Highlights of UBY: * The union of a wide range of heterogeneous resources in a single, standardized resource. * The linking at the word sense level between a subset of the resources. UBY is complemented by a Java API, the UBY-API, and conversion tools (e.g., for converting the resources to UBY-LMF). The UBY API and conversion tools are available at Google Code: http://code.google.com/p/uby/ Highlights of the UBY-API: * Unified access to the various information types in the nine resources. * Easy cross-resource access to the various information types in the resources. A tutorial showing the use of the UBY-API can be found at http://code.google.com/p/uby/wiki/ApiTutorial A Web Interface for exploring and visualizing UBY is currently being developed and will soon be available at http://www.ukp.tu-darmstadt.de/data/uby/. This project was initiated under the auspices of Prof. Dr. Iryna Gurevych, Ubiquitous Knowledge Processing Lab (UKP), Technische Universität Darmstadt. We are grateful for the generous financial support from the Volkswagen Foundation and the German Research Foundation.

Full and short papers should follow the ACM ICPS guidelines for formatting (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates) and must be submitted via the online submission system available at the conference website as PDF documents (other formats will not be accepted). For the camera-ready version, we will also need the source files (Latex, Word Perfect, Word). Important Dates (Research & Application Papers) ----------------------------------------------- + Abstract Submission Deadline (strict): April 2, 2012 + Paper Submission Deadline : April 13, 2012 + Notification of Acceptance: May 7, 2012 + Camera-Ready Paper: June 4, 2012 Posters, Demos & PhD Track -------------------------- The conference also particularly welcomes the submission of posters, demonstrations, and PhD track submissions. The Posters, Demonstrations & PhD Track complements the Research Paper Track and offers an opportunity for presenting late-breaking research results, ongoing research projects, and speculative or innovative work in progress. The informal setting of the Posters, Demonstrations & PhD Track encourages presenters and participants to engage in discussions about the presented work. Such discussions can be invaluable inputs for the future work of the presenters, while offering participants an effective way to broaden their knowledge of the emerging research trends and to network with other researchers. Poster and demo submissions should consist of a 2-3 page description that allows us to judge the quality of the presentation. Submissions to this track must be in the Springer LNCS format (http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs/lncs+authors), i.e. please do NOT use the ACM template here. The objective of the PhD Track is to provide doctoral students with a forum to present and discuss their research projects with experienced researchers (?mentors?) and fellow students. It addresses PhD students at an early stage of their doctoral studies, who want to receive feedback from internationally recognized researchers. Ideally, participants will have a well-defined problem statement and precise questions to discuss with their mentor. Applicants should be PhD students (from any country), conducting ongoing research in the areas of semantic technologies, Linked Data and the Semantic Web. PhD track submissions should consist of up to 1.500 words and contain the following: + Name, affiliation and contact details of the PhD student + Name(s) of the supervisor(s) + Summary of the research project, including: + Problem: research questions, motivation, state of the art and relevance for the fields of Semantic Technologies, Linked Data and Semantic Web + Approach: (planned) approach and methodology + Current status / timeline: current status of the work and any results that have already been reached plus outlook to future work + A list of key questions that the PhD student wants to discuss during the event Submissions will be reviewed by experienced researchers; each submission will receive detailed feedback. The program committee will select participants who will give a short presentation about their research project during the I-SEMANTICS PhD Track. Main focus of the event is on discussion, support and solving open questions.# Important Dates (Posters & Demo Papers & PhD Track) --------------------------------------------------- + Submission Deadline: May 21, 2012 + Notification of Acceptance: June 18, 2012 I-CHALLENGE =========== For the first time in 2012 we will bring to you the I-CHALLENGE, consisting of the Best Research/Application Paper Award, the Best Poster Award, the Best PhD Paper Award and the Linked Data Cup. While the best paper will be selected by the program committee, the Best Poster will be voted by the conference audience via online voting. (Please expect more details for all the Best Paper Awards in the weeks to come.) Information on the Linked Data Cup can be found below: Linked Data Cup 2012 -------------------- The yearly organised Linked Data Cup (formerly Triplification Challenge) awards prizes to the most promising innovation involving linked data. Four different technological topics are addressed: triplification, interlinking, cleansing, and application mash-ups. The Linked Data Cup invites scientists and practitioners to submit novel and innovative (5 star) linked data sets and applications built on linked data technology. Although more and more data is triplified and published as RDF and linked data, the question arises how to evaluate the usefulness of such approaches. The Linked Data Cup therefore requires all submissions to include a concrete use case and problem statement alongside a solution (triplified data set, interlinking/cleansing approach, linked data application) that showcases the usefulness of linked data. Submissions that can provide measurable benefits of employing linked data over traditional methods are preferred. Note that the call is not limited to any domain or target group. We accept submissions ranging from value-added business intelligence use cases to scientific networks to the longest tail of information domains. The only strict requirement is that the employment of linked data is very well motivated and also justified (i.e. we rank approaches higher that provide solutions, which could not have been realised without linked data, even if they lack technical or scientific brilliance). Evaluation Criteria ------------------- The submissions will be initially evaluated with a well-known five star ranking system. Furthermore, entries will be assessed according to the extent to which they 1. motivate the relevancy of their use case for their respective domain; 2. justify the adequacy of linked data technologies for their solution; 3. demonstrate that all alternatives to linked data would have resulted in an inferior solution; 4. provide an evaluation that can measure the benefits of linked data Topics ------ Ideas for topics include (but are not limited to): + Improving traditional approaches with help of linked data + Linked data use in science and education + Linked data supported multimedia applications + Linked data in the open source context + Web annotation + Generic applications + Internationalization of linked data + Visualization of linked data + Linked government data + Business models based on linked data + Recommender systems supported by linked data + Integrating microposts with linked data + Distributed social web based on linked data + Linked data sensor networks Submission and Reviewing ------------------------ Submissions to the Linked Data Cup will be reviewed by members of the Linked Data Cup Board and invited experts from the Linked Data community. Submissions should consist of 4 pages and must be original and must not have been submitted for publication elsewhere. Papers should follow the ACM ICPS guidelines for formatting as accepted submissions will be published in the I-SEMANTICS 2012 proceedings in the digital library of the ACM ICP series. Please read the submission page for detailed information on how to submit.

[ANN] wiktionary.dbpedia.org online - Linked Data, SPARQL and Dumps
by Jonas Brekle 13 Mar '12

13 Mar '12

Hi lists, we are proud to announce that we now host the data we extract from wiktionary publicly on wiktionary.dbpedia.org. We offer Linked Data: http://wiktionary.dbpedia.org/resource/word a SPARQL endpoint: http://wiktionary.dbpedia.org/sparql and N-Triple Dumps: http://downloads.dbpedia.org/wiktionary/ There is also a wiki explaining some details: http://wiki.dbpedia.org/Wiktionary/ We currently extracted data from the English and German Wiktionary (28M triples and 3.7M triples), but plan to extend that to at least the biggest 5 wiktionaries within the next weeks, as our approach focuses on extendability. The data for each word is structured hierarchically (as wiktionary is) and contains information about language, part of speech, definitions, translations, synonyms, hyperonyms and hyponyms etc. There might be some quality issues, but we want to release early, so bear with us and report major problems. Thanks goes to the wiktionary community which does a great job creating this dataset, and we hope to enable new use cases and consequently promote the contribution to the wiktionary project. Regards, Jonas Brekle Department of Computer Science, University of Leipzig Research Group: http://aksw.org

Hi all! Generally, topics about structuring the wiktionary information are important to all the people needing free/open dictionary resources. I have read somewhere there is an initiative to specify a new wiktionary database containing all languages (allowing easier handling of translations) and structured data, but I cannot find the reference anymore.

Dear Amgine, I am interpreting your mail like this: more structered data in wiktionary would benefit several application. This is why we should use the wiktionary-l mailing to mediate between providers of structured data and consumers such as your project . I am rephrasing your answer because it was not directly targeting my question. Should we tell people who are interested in structured data from wiktionary to sign up and post to the wiktionary-I mailing list, which currently has quite a low traffic ?
