| Extraction of RDF Dataset from Wikipedia Infobox Data | Jimmy K. Chiu Thomas Y. Lee Sau Dan Lee Hailey H. Zhu David W. Cheung |
English | 2010 | This paper outlines the cleansing and extraction process of infobox data from Wikipedia data dump into Resource Description Framework (RDF) triplets. The numbers of the extracted triplets, resources, and predicates are substantially large enough for many research purposes such as semantic web search. Our software tool will be open-sourced for researchers to produce up-to-date RDF datasets from routine Wikipedia data dumps. | 0 | 0 | ||

International Conference of the International Society for Scientometrics and Informetrics | English | 2005 | Wikipedia, an international project that uses Wiki software to collaboratively create an encyclopaedia, is becoming more and more popular. Everyone can directly edit articles and every edit is recorded. The version history of all articles is freely available and allows a multitude of examinations. This paper gives an overview on Wikipedia research. Wikipedia's fundamental components, i.e. articles, authors, edits, and links, as well as content and quality are analysed. Possibilities of research are explored including examples and first results. Several characteristics that are found in Wikipedia, such as exponential growth and scale-free networks are already known in other context. However the Wiki architecture also possesses some intrinsic specialties. General trends are measured that are typical for all Wikipedias but vary between languages in detail. | 12 | 11 |
