TL;DR

The mid-term goal is to provide a collection of software components for semantic information processing based on UIMA, called Darmstadt Knowledge Processing Software Repository (DKPro), which should support semantic informationprocessing along several dimensions.

Abstract

The Ubiquitous Knowledge Processing (UKP) Group at Darmstadt University of Technology pursues the vision of using information management, information retrieval, and text mining technologies to create innovative applications, such as intuitive information access in Web 2.0 (O’Reilly, 2005) and eLearning. Thereby, semantic information processing technologies are utilized to transform unstructured information into structured knowledge for different media types, including text and handwriting. In order to support the interoperability of components created in various research projects of UKP, we decided to build upon Unstructured Information Management Architecture (UIMA) (Ferrucci and Lally, 2004), released as an open-source project by IBM in 2006. The mid-term goal is to provide a collection of software components for semantic information processing based on UIMA, called Darmstadt Knowledge Processing Software Repository (DKPro). DKPro should support semantic information processing along several dimensions, such as:

Lucene in Action describes what Lucene is and how it works and most importantly how it can be used in a variety of real-world use cases, such at Nutch, an open-source project designed to index the internet very much like Google.

Using WordNet Based Context Vectors to Estimate the Semantic Relatedness of Concepts

354 Citations2006Siddharth Patwardhan, Ted Pedersen

A WordNetbased measure of semantic relatedness is introduced by combining the structure and content of WordNet with co–occurrence information derived from raw text that can make comparisons between any two concepts without regard to their part of speech.
