ANN: Krextor 0.3 (XML --XSLT--> RDF extraction framework)

Dear all,

  there is a new version of the XML->RDF extraction framework Krextor (0.3) at
http://kwarc.info/projects/krextor/.  Now, some less obscure input and output
formats are supported, most notably RDFa as input, and the somewhat
human-readable Turtle (similar to N3) as output.  RDFa is for semantic
annotation of XHTML, but Krextor also makes it easy to integrate RDFa into
other host languages.

Other news:
 * literal XML shorthand syntax for defining simple XML->RDF extraction rules
 * shell script frontend
 * convenient and efficient Java integration (using XOM and Saxon)

Krextor is an extensible XSLT-based framework for extracting RDF from XML,
supporting multiple input languages as well as multiple output RDF notations.
Krextor provides convenience templates that try to do “the right thing”™ in
many common cases, as to reduce the need for manually writing repetitive code.

If you want to give it a try for your XML language or microformat, I'd be
happy to support you in doing so.

BTW: In an older discussion on this list I got some good feedback from you
about different programming languages than XSLT, which I could consider for a
reimplementation of Krextor.  For now, I'll stick to XSLT, but I'm always
interested in looking at alternatives; see 
https://trac.kwarc.info/krextor/wiki/DevelopmentNotes for a summary.

Cheers,

Christoph

If a machine can invent, does this mean the end of the patent system as we know it? The patent system, both in the US and Europe, allows companies to protect their inventions and helps foster innovation. However, Artificial Intelligence (AI) could be set to disrupt the patent system as we know it. This talk will examine how AI may change the patent landscape in the years to come. Furthermore, ways in which companies can best protect their AI related inventions will be examined from both a US and...
