dc.description.abstract | In recent years, there has been an increasing growth of interest among computer
scientists for the topic of Linked Data and the Semantic Web. By connecting
and publishing structured data from multiple sources, the Web enables us to
retrieve specific information without needing to go through documents of unstructured
text. Question answering systems can utilise the benefit of Linked
Data, and enable users to ask question in a natural language in order to provide
direct answers. In this thesis we implement a system that can answer natural
language questions related to the field of Formula 1 statistics. We show how
data is collected and connected based on a conceptual model, and go through
the necessary steps for converting a question into a machine-readable query.
We perform an evaluation of the system, both on component level and on the
system as a whole. We analyse and discuss challenges and topics for improvements,
before we conclude our work and summarise the most important steps
to consider for future work. | nb_NO |
