WP11 Multilingual semantic wiki - M18

Summary of progress

We continued working on our two main projects: (1) developing ACE-in-GF (multilingual grammar of ACE) and (2) developing AceWiki-GF (multilingual CNL-based semantic wiki).

ACE-in-GF was extended to almost all the languages supported in the GF resource grammar library (~20 languages), although only the languages reported in D11.1 are fully implemented and tested.

The main work on AceWiki-GF was completed, and reported in D11.2 and a ESWC 2013 conference paper. Smaller extensions and improvements continue.

In the last 5 months of the project we focused on the evaluation of both ACE-in-GF and AceWiki-GF. The design and results of both of these evaluations are reported in D11.3.
