DBpedia Tutorial 2.0 @ KG Conference

Date:
May 2, 2022
Time:
3:00 pm CEST

We are proud to announce that we will organize a tutorial 2.0 at the Knowledge Graph Conference 2022 on May 2, 2022 at 3pm CEST. The tutorial targets existing and potential new users of DBpedia, developers that wish to learn how to replicate DBpedia infrastructure, service providers interested in exploiting the DBpedia KG, data providers interested in integrating data assets with the DBpedia KG, data scientists (e.g. linguists) focused on extracting relevant information (e.g. linguistic) from/based on the DBpedia KG.

The survey of our last tutorial at KGC’21 revealed that the audience was particularly interested in using DBpedia in industry use cases, demos as well as tools. As a consequence we decided to organize a new tutorial that is less focused on research driven topics and instead added more use-cases and practical examples which are demonstrated in hands-on live demo sessions. Additionally we show how to deploy the technology stack and services to be used on private / local infrastructure.

The aim of this tutorial is, from a practical perspective, to explain in detail the DBpedia technology stack and its deployment on a customer infrastructure. The tutorial will also explain in detail the generation and release process of the DBpedia KG. In a real-world use case we will illustrate the use of the DBpedia KG and DBpedia technology stack in combination with proprietary data. Hands-on sessions will be organized to intternalize the DBpedia technology stack with practice.

During the course of the tutorial the following topics will be studied:

  • DBpedia Knowledge Graph in the nutshell
  • DBpedia Technology Stack
  • Deployment of the DBpedia on corporate infrastructure
  • Real-world use case an application of the DBpedia tech

Altough the tutorial will be shaped in a way that no specific prerequisites will be required, the participants would benefit if they have some background knowledge in Semantic Web concepts and technologies (RDF, OWL, SPARQL), general overview of the Web Architecture (HTTP, URI, JSON, etc.) and basic programming skills (bash, Java, JavaScript). All required software and tools will be provided and they will be freely available for the participants. Instructions for the hands-on-sessions will be provided in advanced.

The DBpedia Knowledge Graph Tech Tutorial 2.0 will be held on May 2, 2022 at 3:00-6:00pm CEST.
