Querying multilingual DBpedia with QAKiS

Description

We present an extension of QAKiS, a system for open domain Question Answering over linked data, that allows to query DBpedia multilingual chapters. Such chapters can contain different information with respect to the English version, e.g. they provide more specificity on certain topics, or fill information gaps. QAKiS exploits the alignment between properties carried out by DBpedia contributors as a mapping from Wikipedia terms to a common ontology, to exploit information coming from DBpedia multilingual chapters, broadening therefore its coverage. For the demo, English, French and German DBpedia chapters are the RDF data sets to be queried using a natural language interface.
