Data Journalism

Efficiently handling the deluge of news and other news-worthy electronic data being published today, requires powerful content management tools in order to handle news document structure, extract meaning from the text, connect pieces of information with each other, etc. To that purpose, we have built and experimented with FactMinder, a platform for gathering, enriching, annotating, storing, and querying news documents, with the help of existing ontologies that users may enrich and/or exploit next to their own [24] . Many more applications of our research are possible in this domain [38] .
