PundIt MarineLives Forum

Purpose of this page

This page provides a discussion forum and set of resources for MarineLives project members exploring the functionality of the PundIt tool.


Background

PundIt is an experimental semantic annotation tool for web pages which is currently under further development by Net7, and which is being used by the DM2E project.

The DM2E project is a project of Europeana, which has emerged out of the European Digital Library Network. Dr Christian Morbidioni and Dr Kai Eckert are two of the DM2E project workstream leaders, and have approached the MarineLives project leadership team to explore the potential to collaboarte with us and with our partners at Bath Spa University and the National Archives.

MarineLives is working with Dr Christian Morbidioni of the University of Pisa and Simone Fonda of Net7 to explore a working demo of PundIt. The demo can be found here.

In parallel, MarineLives is working with Dr Kai Eckert and Dominique Ritze of the University of Mannheim, to explore the potential for automatic and semi-automatic entity recognition for MarineLives transcriptions. The topics of semantic annotation and entity recognition are clearly closely related.



Approach to evaluation

We would like to focus our experimentation with PundIt on the High Court of Admiralty deposition book, HCA 13/72. Roughly 700 pages of HCA 13/72 have been transcribed and edited, and are available in edited form on the following Annotate HCA 13/72 wiki. Digital images of many (but not all) of the same transcribed pages can be viewed in our tailored transcription software, MarineLives - Transcript together with the transcriptions.

We suggest that evaluators try annotating web pages from both the wiki version of the transcribed text and the MarineLives - Transcript version of the transcibed text (and indeed the images themselves, and or image fragments).

The current PundIt demo has been set up with sample custom vocabularies extracted from the Annotate HCA 13/71 wiki. Colin Greenstreet is exploring with Simone Fonda how we can create new custom vocabularies for ships, people, places and materials specifically for HCA 13/72, and how we can then add and edit new individual records in these custom vocabularies.

Rolling list of questions about PundIt functionality in the context of MarineLives project


Please post your questions here, together with answers and comments as they emerge



CUSTOM VOCABULARIES


  • How were Marinelive: Persons & Marinelive: Boats custom vocabularies created?
  • Can the two MarineLive custom vocabularies be renamed by us, and if so, how?
  • How do we create and label new custom vocabularies?
  • How do we modify or add to existing custom vocabularies?




DATES


  • How should we and PundIt handle C17th calendars (English old style; English new style, etc.)




SEARCHABLE DATABASES


  • Relevance of of Freebase to MarineLives?
  • Relevance of DBPedia to MarineLives?






TRIPLES


  • How create new subjects in drop down triple menu?
