2.1 Project objectives for the period

The last period of the MOLTO project and of its enlargement MOLTO-EEU has been a very intensive period of work for the Consortium. The major deliverables have been delayed to this period and had to be completed. They included:

  • GF in the cloud, a sample collection of web services for GF and MOLTO grammars
  • a revision of the GF-OWL interoperability
  • a unified grammar for handling natural language queries, customized for the case studies
  • a third party translators' platform in which the MOLTO tools were integrated
  • the overall evaluation of the MOLTO work packages

To demonstrate the usage of the MOLTO tools and technologies, the partners worked towards joint prototypes for the various case studies listed in the workplan. The coordination work involved agreement on platforms, on formats, and on the overall architecture of each demonstrator.

The final case studies include: - a proof-of-concept dialog system and reasoner for word problems (WP6) - patent translation by the robust hybrid approach and multilingual query interface (WP3, WP4, WP5, WP7) - museum artifacts multilingual query and descriptions (WP4, WP8) - multilingual semantic wiki AceWiki (WP2, WP11) - multilingual business modelling by GF (WP2, WP3, WP12).
