- 4. BIS – 2012/ 01 Leipzig – Page 4 03/ http:/ l /od2.eu The Semantic Gap Most problems occurred at the bottom Data integration is difficult, if the pivots are not well defined Questions (in order): What structure to use? What URIs to use? What is a String? How can we teach machines to understand Strings (Knowledge Representation)?
- 5. BIS – 2012/ 01 Leipzig – Page 5 03/ http:/ l /od2.eu Main question How can we formalize text in a way, which is: Transparent for machines Efficient for NLP Use Cases Consistent with the Web architecture

BIS – 2012/ 01 Leipzig – Page 7 03/ http:/ l /od2.eu Preliminary definition The NLP Interchange Format (NIF) is an RDF/OWL-based format that aims to achieve interoperability between Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools, language resources and annotations. This definition is still limited to RDF and NLP and targets software integration via a common exchange format

- 13. BIS – 2012/ 01 Leipzig – Page 13 03/ http:/ l /od2.eu Scientific core Define the notion of “Context” and formalize it in OWL: Context is similar to the German word “Betrachtungshorizont” In English maybe “inside context”, i.e. the text itself, which serves as a reference context for all included substrings. Definitely disjoint with groupings such as “Document”, because a “wider context” is needed for this. Example following...

- 16. BIS – 2012/ 01 Leipzig – Page 16 03/ http:/ l /od2.eu Scientific Core Goal is to research some of the implications, ... but I might not be able to finish it, completely. In scope: Property “contextString” is inverse-functional, which means that machines can infer automatically that the same context occurs in different documents. Show consistency with ambiguity Define metrics that compare contexts Formalize the interpretation function Show interoperability with internal models of all major NLP frameworks (Partial) compatibility with the WWW and the GGG

BIS – 2012/ 01 Leipzig – Page 17 03/ http:/ l /od2.eu Scientific Core Out of scope: Transition between contexts: Do statements from a smaller context hold in a broader context Incorporate all layers of NLP (Stack). Limited to POS tags and Entity Recognition Fill all the question marks in the Venn diagram

Developers study, release of the specification had quite an impact, people started to create extensions and use the format. 50 people on the mailing list. How to evaluate Web Service integration or consistency with web architecture. If the way strings are represented is transparent and formalized, do I need to do experimental evaluation to show benefits?
