Medelyan, O., Legg, C., Milne, D. & Witten, I. H. Mining Meaning from Wikipedia 2008   misc URL  
Abstract: Wikipedia is a goldmine of information; not just for its many readers, but
so for the growing community of researchers who recognize it as a resource of
ceptional scale and utility. It represents a vast investment of manual effort
d judgment: a huge, constantly evolving tapestry of concepts and relations
at is being applied to a host of tasks.
This article provides a comprehensive description of this work. It focuses on
search that extracts and makes use of the concepts, relations, facts and
scriptions found in Wikipedia, and organizes the work into four broad
tegories: applying Wikipedia to natural language processing; using it to
cilitate information retrieval and information extraction; and as a resource
r ontology building. The article addresses how Wikipedia is being used as is,
w it is being improved and adapted, and how it is being combined with other
ructures to create entirely new resources. We identify the research groups
d individuals involved, and how their work has developed in the last few
ars. We provide a comprehensive list of the open-source software they have
oduced. We also discuss the implications of this work for the long-awaited
mantic web.
