Nani gigantum humeris insidentes

• Standing on the shoulders of giants• Research builds on the past• We pass knowledge, to create

new knowledge

• Lying under a pile of text documents• Unconnected data• Contradicting facts• Missing / hard to find

information

CODE:Vision in a Nutshell

Can we do better?

“

”- Isaac Newton

CODE:Vision in a Nutshell (2)

Yes, we can …

“A reference manager that does your research for you” *

Given textually encoded scientific knowledge Extract facts Enrich & combine with existing knowledge Make it available for further (visual) analysis Bootstrapping data economy

* overstatedVision of the CODE

framework

Vision: Use Case

2. Querying LoD & disambiguation suggestions 1. User marks an entity3. Present research resultsFurther example:

Gather structures of research papers (e.g. Images, Tables)

But … how ?!?

• Challenges• Algorithmic quality in extraction• Entity disambiguation• Efficient Linked Open Data

Querying and Aggregation• Data Warehousing

• Approaches• User Engagement

(Marketplace)• Motivation • High Quality research

Monetary turnover

• Start simple• Focus on concrete use-cases

It is better to take many small steps in the right direction than to make a great leap forward only to stumble backward.
