   RELEASE OF BABELNET 3.7

   http://babelnet.org

=


We are happy to announce the release a new version of BabelNet, a project
recently featured in a TIME magazine article. BabelNet (http://babelnet.org)
is the *largest multilingual encyclopedic dictionary *and *semantic network
*created by means of the seamless integration of the largest multilingual
Web encyclopedia - i.e., Wikipedia - with the most popular computational
lexicon of English - i.e., WordNet, and other lexical resources such as
Wiktionary, OmegaWiki, Wikidata, Open Multilingual WordNet, Wikiquote,
VerbNet, Microsoft Terminology, GeoNames, WoNeF, ImageNet, ItalWordNet,
Open Dutch WordNet and FrameNet. The integration is performed via a
high-performance linking algorithm and by filling in lexical gaps with the
aid of Machine Translation. The result is an encyclopedic dictionary that
provides Babel synsets, i.e., concepts and named entities lexicalized in
many languages and connected with large amounts of semantic relations.

Version 3.7 comes with the following new features:


   -

   New resource integrated: FrameNet (lexical units)
   -

   More than 2500 Babel synsets identified as key concepts
   -

   Mappings with several versions of WordNet now integrated (from 1.6 to
   3.0)
   -

   More than 2.6 million Babel synsets labeled with domains (was 1,558,806
   in v3.6)


More statistics are available at: http://babelnet.org/stats

BabelNet was part of the MultiJEDI project 
originally funded by the European Research Council and headed by Prof.
Roberto Navigli at the Linguistic Computing Laboratory
 of the Sapienza University of Rome. BabelNet is
now a self-sustained project. It is, and always will be, free for research
purposes, including download. Babelscape , a
Sapienza startup company, is BabelNet's commercial support arm, thanks to
which the project will be continued and improved over time.


Enjoy!

The BabelNet group

Re: Vocabulary to describe software projects and their dependencies

[matteo casu]

Hi Martynas,

a couple of years ago, while searching for a similar use case, I came across 
this one:

Re: Vocabulary to describe software projects and their dependencies

You may be interested in https://github.com/codemeta/codemeta.

I've lost touch with progress on this, and not clear on the current status
w.r.t. describing dependency graphs, but I know it was a question this
group was considering in the spring.

Vocabulary to describe software projects and their dependencies

[Martynas Jusevičius]

Hey,

I am looking for a way to describe a software project in RDF, in detail.

DOAP vocabulary comes very close: https://github.com/edumbill/doap

Too bad it looks to be unmaintained. Strangely, the schema does not
seem to support relationships (dependencies) between projects.

Are there any other vocabularies I should know about?

Please do not suggest https://schema.org/SoftwareApplication as it is
not nearly expressive enough.
