Hi Chalitha, YAGO is a very interesting knowledge base. In addition to plain Entity Linking YAGO could also be used for more advanced things like
* using its much cleaner categories (compared to dbpedia) and the "thematic domains" to categorize Documents. This could be done by training a classifier by using textual descriptions of Entities assigned to those categories. Maybe also a categorization based on linked Entities could work. * As YAGO assigns Entities with spatial and temporal regions it should be possible to detect the mentions of Events in documents (see also STANBOL-1121 related to this) As YAGO is licensed under CC Attribution it could be directly integrated in Stanbol. AIDA itself is very interesting and iterating it as a Stanbol Disambiguation engine would be great. Also [EMNLP2011] very interesting to read. However AIDAs license does make it very unattractive for a GSoC Project mentored by Apache Stanbol as we would not be able to integrate the results of this project. best Rupert [EMNLP2011]: J.
