Semantic Aggregation

Participant : Christophe Desclaux.

Christophe spent one year in the Wimmics team (October 2012 to October 2013) as an invited engineer funded by the BoostYourCode contest he won in 2012. The aim of the BoostYourCode contest (organized by Inria) is to offer to a junior engineer a one year full time contract to work on an innovating OpenSource project.

We worked on an RSS feed aggregation tool using Named Entities Recognition. Reador.NET (http://www.reador.net ) provides a specialized tool for monitoring news from various sources like RSS, twitter or facebook feeds. Reador.NET semantically increases news for a better classification for the user. We worked on document clustering, natural language processing, RDF datastores and building efficient SPARQL queries.
