Recent works:


Project: Babelnet (www.babelnet.org)
BabelNet is both a multilingual encyclopedic dictionary, with lexicographic and encyclopedic coverage of terms in 50 languages, and a semantic network which connects concepts and named entities in a very large network of semantic relations, made up of more than 9 million entries.
Project: BabelNet RDF (www.babelnet.org/rdf/)


Project: Babelfy (www.babelfy.org)
Babelfy is a unified, multilingual, graph-based approach to Entity Linking and Word Sense Disambiguation based on a loose identification of candidate meanings coupled with a densest subgraph heuristic which selects high-coherence semantic interpretations.
