• Title: Linking Streets in OpenStreetMap to Persons in Wikidata
• Authors: Daria Gurtovoy and Simon Gottschalk
• Abstract summary: Geographic web sources such as OpenStreetMap (OSM) and knowledge graphs such as Wikidata are often unconnected. An example connection can be established between these sources are links between streets in OSM to the persons in Wikidata they were named after. This paper presents StreetToPerson, an approach for connecting streets in OSM to persons in a knowledge graph based on relations in the knowledge graph and spatial dependencies.

• Abstract: Geographic web sources such as OpenStreetMap (OSM) and knowledge graphs such as Wikidata are often unconnected. An example connection that can be established between these sources are links between streets in OSM to the persons in Wikidata they were named after. This paper presents StreetToPerson, an approach for connecting streets in OSM to persons in a knowledge graph based on relations in the knowledge graph and spatial dependencies. Our evaluation shows that we outperform existing approaches by 26 percentage points. In addition, we apply StreetToPerson on all OSM streets in Germany, for which we identify more than 180,000 links between streets and persons.

• Leveraging Wikidata's edit history in knowledge graph refinement tasks [77.34726150561087]
  edit history represents the process in which the community reaches some kind of fuzzy and distributed consensus. We build a dataset containing the edit history of every instance from the 100 most important classes in Wikidata. We propose and evaluate two new methods to leverage this edit history information in knowledge graph embedding models for type prediction tasks.

  Current linked open data (LOD) tools are not suitable to enrich large graphs like Wikidata. We present a novel workflow that includes gap detection, source selection, schema alignment, and semantic validation. Our experiments show that our workflow can enrich Wikidata with millions of novel statements from external LOD sources with a high quality.

• Assessing the quality of sources in Wikidata across languages: a hybrid approach [64.05097584373979]
  We run a series of microtasks experiments to evaluate a large corpus of references, sampled from Wikidata triples with labels in several languages. We use a consolidated, curated version of the crowdsourced assessments to train several machine learning models to scale up the analysis to the whole of Wikidata. The findings help us ascertain the quality of references in Wikidata, and identify common challenges in defining and capturing the quality of user-generated multilingual structured data on the web.

  This paper presents Geos - a unique, comprehensive world-scale linked corpus of OSM entity embeddings. The Geos corpus captures semantic and geographic dimensions of OSM entities and makes them accessible to machine learning algorithms. We provide a SPARQL endpoint - a semantic interface that offers direct access to semantic and latent representations of geographic entities in OSM.

  OpenStreetMap (OSM) is one of the richest openly available sources of volunteered geographic information. Knowledge graphs can potentially provide valuable semantic information to enrich OSM entities. This paper tackles the alignment of OSM tags with the corresponding knowledge graph classes holistically by jointly considering the schema and instance layers. We propose a novel neural architecture that capitalizes upon a shared latent space for tag-to-class alignment created using linked entities in OSM and knowledge graphs.

  We propose OSM2KG - a novel link discovery approach to predict identity links between OSM nodes and geographic entities in a knowledge graph. The core of the OSM2KG approach is a novel latent, compact representation of OSM nodes that captures semantic node similarity in an embedding. Our experiments conducted on several OSM datasets, as well as the Wikidata and DBpedia knowledge graphs, demonstrate that OSM2KG can reliably discover identity links.

  We present Grale, a scalable method we have developed to address the problem of graph design for graphs with billions of nodes. Grale operates by fusing together different measures of(potentially weak) similarity to create a graph which exhibits high task-specific homophily between its nodes. We have deployed Grale in more than 20 different industrial settings at Google, including datasets which have tens of billions of nodes, and hundreds of trillions of potential edges to score.
