ORKG: Facilitating the Transfer of Research Results with the Open Research Knowledge Graph
« (…) The ORKG is completely unique in its idea to describe scientific contributions in a knowledge graph.

However, these initiatives solely focus on bibliographic information and do not comprise a rich structured representation of the actual content of the publications. Other related initiatives are text-mining projects, such as SemanticScholar, which generate some relatively shallow semantic descriptions automatically. However, due to the low precision and recall of text mining methods (in particular for relation extraction), this does not go beyond relatively simple classifications, annotations and summarisation of the content and, thus, does not suffice for creating a comprehensive knowledge graph representation and exploration services, such as comparisons, visualisations, question answering, etc. (…) »
