OKE 2018 - Open Knowledge Extraction Challenge
in conjunction with the 15th European Semantic Web Conference (ESWC 2018) 3rd-7th June 2018, Heraklion, Crete, Greece https://2018.eswc-conferences.org/ https://project-hobbit.eu/challenges/oke2018-challenge-eswc-2018/ email: OKE-contact@googlegroups.com email: speck@informatik.uni-leipzig.de The OKE challenge invites researchers and practitioners from academia as well as industry to compete to the aim of pushing further the state of the art in knowledge extraction from text for the Semantic Web. The challenge has the ambition to provide a reference framework for research in this field by redefining a number of tasks typically from information and knowledge extraction by taking into account Semantic Web requirements and has the goal to test the performance of knowledge extraction systems. This year, the challenge goes in the fourth round and consists of four tasks which include named entity identification, disambiguation by linking to a knowledge base as well as relation and knowledge extraction. The challenge makes use of small gold standard datasets that consist of manually curated documents and large silver standard datasets that consist of automatically generated synthetic documents. The performance measure of a participating system is twofold based on (1) Precision, Recall, F1-measure and on (2) Precision, Recall, F1-measure with respect to the runtime of the system. This year, the challenge comprises the following tasks: Task 1: Focused Named Entity Identification and Linking Task 2: Broader Named Entity Identification and Linking Task 3: Relation Extraction Task 4: Knowledge Extraction Participants will be expected to describe their solution and results on the training datasets over a 5 page paper. In particular, a short summary of the approach chosen, a link to the experimental results and an analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the approach are expected. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Important Dates -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paper submission deadline (5 pages): Friday, March 30th, 2018 Challenge paper reviews: Thursday, April 26th, 2018 Notification of authors and invitation to challenge: Monday, April 30th, 2018 Camera ready papers (5 pages): Monday, May 14th, 2018 Camera ready papers for the challenge post-proceedings (up to 15 pages): Friday, July 6th, 2018 (tentative deadline) Release of training data and detailed instructions: Monday, February 12, 2018 Release of test dataset: Monday, May 7th, 2018 Deadline for system submission: TBA Running of the systems: TBA Presentation of challenge results: During ESWC 2018 Proclamation of winners: During ESWC 2018 closing ceremony -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Organization -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Axel-Cyrille Ngonga Ngomo, Paderborn University, Paderborn, Germany René Speck, Leipzig University, Leipzig, Germany Michael Röder, Paderborn Leipzig, Paderborn, Germany Ricardo Usbeck, Paderborn University, Paderborn, Germany For the complete list of organizers and program committee members, visit the challenge website. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Further Information and Contact -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For detailed information, including datasets and submission guidelines, please visit the challenge website: https://project-hobbit.eu/challenges/oke2018-challenge-eswc-2018/ Contact Email: OKE-contact@googlegroups.com OR speck@informatik.uni-leipzig.de -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
