Abstract

In today’s media and in the Web of Data, non-Western people still suffer a lack of representation. In our work, we address this issue by presenting a pipeline for collecting and semantically encoding Wikipedia biographies of writers who are under-represented due to their non-Western origins, or their legal status in a country. The two main components of the ontology will be described, together with a framework for mapping textual biographies to their corresponding semantic representations. A description of the data set, and some examples of biographical texts conversion to the Ontology Classes, will be provided.
