WP11 Meeting 2011.12.13

This is a Skype meeting about WP11 (semantic wiki) on 13 December 2011 at 9am.

Participants

Kaarel, John, Krasimir, Tobias.

Minutes

Done so far

Tobias:

• Refactoring AceWiki code: predictive editor, OWL classes, multilinguality.
• Connecting GF and AceWiki via JPGF.

Kaarel:

• Work on AceWiki/ACE interface.
• Normunds' GF implementation of ACE: many things are missing; not so interesting for this project.

John:

• Will start to work on AceWiki ca in February

Open Issues

JPGF or GF web service?

• The current (very incomplete) version connects to GF via JPGF. Works but is sometimes buggy and slow.
• It would be good to support both via a general Java interface.

Reasoning?

• To what extend should reasoning be possible? Based on OWL?
• Syllogisms as a light-weight possibility to do reasoning if doing reasoning with ACE/OWL turns out too difficult.
• WP8 uses OWL too: maybe there is a possiblity to combine efforts.

Grammar?

• Possible starting points: GF Attempto grammar, Normunds' grammar, something else

Adding new Words

• New version of GF should support this
• Changes on the AceWiki side required
• How to handle the case that a new word is added only in one of the languages?

More ideas:

• Support ungrammatical sentences? (to learn from them or to allow for gradual transformation)
• Using existing tool/framework for users, revisions etc.

To do until January

Tobias:

• Make the AceWiki design multilingual and implement a small AceWiki engine for multilingual GF grammars (Task 11.1)
• General refactoring of the AceWiki code (Task 11.2)

Kaarel:

• General refactoring of the AceWiki code (Task 11.2)
• Explore GF grammars
