Description
The research and development a of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Information Retrieval (IR) approaches, methods and techniques has been key for the Semantic Web. The synergy between these research fields have derived on novel approaches for entity linking, knowledge mining, automatic ontology population methods, and so forth. This track invites high quality submissions that show how NLP and IR methods and techniques have been applied to develop and improve the SW field or how SW technologies and resources have been used to enhance different aspects of the NLP and IR methods.
