Semantic Web Challenge at the ISWC 2019

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The DICE group at Paderborn University is proud to announce the launch of
this year’s Semantic Web Challenge at the ISWC 2019.



This year’s challenge is centered on validation of factual information in a
newly generated Knowledge graph.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Semantic Web Challenge at a glance:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The aim of this challenge is to test the performance of fact validation
systems in aspects that are relevant for the Semantic Web. These include
ROC-AUC and runtime measurements. The challenge will test participating
systems against data in a newly generated Knowledge graph and will comprise
the following tasks:



* Task 1 Fact Validation

* Task 2 Fact Validation at Scale



For detailed information, including datasets and submission guidelines,
please visit the challenge website:
https://dice-group.github.io/semantic-web-challenge.github.io/



We herewith invite system developers to participate in the aforementioned
tasks. To ensure that the system results are comparable, we will provide
the GERBIL and HOBBIT benchmarking platform for the generation of the final
results to be included into the system publications.



Training data for both the tasks can be accessed at
https://hobbitdata.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/SWC_ISWC2019/
