Open Data Intelligence

The Web is a vast source of information, to which more is added every day either in unstructured form (Web pages) or, increasingly, as partially structured sources of information, in particular as Open Data sets, which can be seen as connected graphs of data, most frequently described in the RDF data format recommended by the W3C. Further, RDF data is also the most appropriate format for representing structured information extracted automatically from Web pages, such as the DBPedia database extracted from Wikipedia or Google's InfoBoxes. Our work on this topic has taken place within the 4-year project ODIN, funded by the Department of Defense under the RAPID innovation programme.
