Hi Kevin, Nice to see your interest in DBpedia! Speaking from the fact extraction side, here are a few pointers.
1. Google Summer of Code 2015 project: https://github.com/dbpedia/fact-extractor 2. This year, Alexandru (in CC) is proposing an idea that looks to me like a nice follow-up to the above project: http://wiki.dbpedia.org/ideas/idea/237/a-hybrid-classifierrule-based-event-extractor-for-dbpedia/ In general, it would be nice to have the fact extractor scale up to more languages and more domains: it is currently implemented for Italian and the soccer domain. Hope this helps. Cheers! On 4/8/16 17:10, Kevin Sebastian wrote: > Hi, > > A little introduction - I am a 2015 graduate in computer science > currently working in the field of data science.
