ABSTRACT
Wikipedia was formally launched in 2001, but the first research papers mentioning it appeared only in 2002. Since then it raised a huge amount of interest in the research community. At first mainly the content creation processes and the quality of the content were studied, but later on it was picked up as a valuable source for data mining and for testing. In this paper we present preliminary results that characterize the research done on and using Wikipedia since 2002.

Two-stage approach to named entity recognition using Wikipedia and DBpedia
IMCOM '17: Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Ubiquitous Information Management and CommunicationIn natural language understanding, extraction of named entity (NE) mentions in given text and classification of the mentions into pre-defined NE types are important processes. Most NE recognition (NER) relies on resources such as a training corpus or NE ...
Learning multilingual named entity recognition from Wikipedia
We automatically create enormous, free and multilingual silver-standard training annotations for named entity recognition (ner) by exploiting the text and structure of Wikipedia. Most ner systems rely on statistical models of annotated data to identify ...
Evaluating Entity Linking with Wikipedia
Named Entity Linking (nel) grounds entity mentions to their corresponding node in a Knowledge Base (kb). Recently, a number of systems have been proposed for linking entity mentions in text to Wikipedia pages. Such systems typically search for candidate ...
