Re: [Dbpedia-discussion] DBpedia categories; URL shortening

It's a precaution: Wikipedia categories are a navigational aid, and can't be 
used reliably to find things of a certain kind.

1. apply a FILTER based on your known
   knowledge (e.g., what you've pointed out above)
2. enhance this list with your domain knowledge
  and then hopefully publish back to the LOD cloud

Hi Kingsley!

The problem is:
1. How to KNOW which categories represent types. There are 5-10 approaches for 
this, based on NLP and ML.
   E.g. Yago2 assumes that if the head-word of the cat name is a plural noun, 
that's a class.
   MENTA improves this by looking for a head-word that's a countable noun.
   A lot of them tie up into Wordnet, some into OpenCyc/UMBEL.
   It's a hard research problem.
2. How to KNOW which category-entity instance is an exception.
   E.g. a category Books of Author Xyz is typically applied to the page Author 
Xyz and a naïve interpretation will conclude that the author is a book.

In wikipedia, Categories are a navigational aid, i.e. mere links.  The trick 
is how to find those links that are type links.


  http://dbpedia.org/c/9CH4UXVL   -- shortened version of the above

 Kingsley, how do you get this?

My question was about the shortening. Hacking the URL I find that the
dbpedia URL shortener is athttp://dbpedia.org/c/
But is there a quick way to invoke it from SPARQL results? Should I make a 
browser bookmark?


Best you make a bookmarklet for now, I'll look into making this RESTful 
service so that it's invoked via something like:


http://dbpedia.org/c?uri={sparql-results-url}
