R. Witte & T. Gitzinger. Connecting Wikis and Natural Language Processing Systems.

Abstract: We investigate the integration of Wiki systems with automated natural language processing (NLP) techniques. The vision is that of a “self-aware” Wiki system reading, understanding, transforming, and writing its own content, as well as supporting its users in information analysis and content development. We provide a number of practical application examples, including index generation, question answering, and automatic summarization, which demonstrate the practicability and usefulness of this idea. A system architecture providing the integration is presented, as well as first results from an initial implementation based on the GATE framework for NLP and the MediaWiki system.
