From DBpedia to Wikipedia: Filling the Gap by Discovering Wikipedia Conventions

Many relations existing in DBpedia are missing in Wikipedia yielding up an information gap between the semantic web and the social web. Inserting these missing relations requires to automatically discover Wikipedia conventions. From pairs linked by a property p in DBpedia, we find path queries that link the same pairs in Wikipedia. We make the hypothesis that the shortest path query with maximal containment captures the Wikipedia convention for p. We computed missing links and conventions for different DBpedia queries. Next, we inserted some missing links according to computed conventions in Wikipedia and evaluated Wikipedians feedback. Nearly all contributions has been accepted. In this paper, we detail the path indexing algorithms, the results of evaluations and give some details about social feedback.
