Back in the lecture hall again after two exciting weeks of #ESWC2025 and #ISWS2025. This morning, we introduced our students to RDF, RDFS, RDF Inferencing, and RDF Reification.

LLMs are starving for knowledge graphs. Raphael Troncy was pointing out that many LLM company crawlers are constantly visiting their KGs. Some crawlers even perform explicit SPARQL queries on the KGs.

Running two sessions:
Session 1: Ontology and Entity Matching (Harald Sack) in Emerald hall Floor 11
10:44
Session 3: KG Embeddings I (Axel Polleres) Mediteranea hall Floor 11
#ESWC2025

In his keynote, Raphael Troncy is asking whether we should keep building knowledge graphs....taking into account 20 years of experience in building knowledge graphs

Excellent keynote in the #SemDH2025 workshop by Laura Hollink on Cultural Bias in Linked Open Data. Laura is addressing all bias related aspects in cultural heritage items itself, in the data representing it, the data schemata, vocabularies, and ontologies on which the data are based, as well as in the knowledge representation languages used to create the schemata.

"Learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else", but how to do this with Linked Data? Eero Hyvönen is quoting Leonardo Da Vinci as an intro to his presentation "How to Create a Portal for Digital Humanities Research Using a Linked Open Data Cloud of Cultural Heritage Knowledge Graphs: Case SampoSampo"

The 2nd SemDH 2025 Workshop is now live at #ESWC2025!
Room 4 – Adria I, Floor 11

SemDH brings together researchers working to bridge the gap between Semantic Web technologies and the evolving needs of the Cultural Heritage (CH) and Digital Humanities (DH) communities.

The 2nd NSLP 2025 Workshop is now underway at #ESWC2025!
Room 3 – Aurora III, Floor 0

NSLP brings together researchers focused on the processing, analysis, transformation, and utilization of scientific language and Research Knowledge Graphs (RKGs).

From papers to structured knowledge — this is where AI meets scientific publishing.

Today the #SemDH2025 workshop takes place alongside #ESWC2025. I’m happy that Philipp Tögel will present our paper on Data-rich Web Annotations. We discuss how web annotations, a W3C standard, can be leveraged to include complex analysis with domain-specific data models as #LinkedData, without a need to extend the WADM core ontology. We apply this in @sfb1475 to store rich information about metaphorical expressions as annotations. https://semdh.github.io/accepted-papers#paper03 #DigitalHumanities #SemanticWeb

SemDH Workshop is about to take place at ESWC25 in the beautiful city of Portoroz, Slovenia on Monday, June 2nd, 2025!

Check out the full, detailed program at https://semdh.github.io/program.html

The keynote will be held by Laura Hollink, Human-Centered Data Analytics group leader at CWI, Amsterdam on "Cultural bias in Linked Open Data"
