Hi all, we would like to organize a Hackathon while at the ESWC.<\/span>

\n\t

\n\tWe want to do it on Monday, May 27 in Montpillier, France.<\/span>

\n\tWe are probably going to use <\/span>https:\/\/www.hackerleague.org\/<\/a> to manage signups<\/span>

\n\t

\n\tTheme:<\/span>

\n\t

\n\tThe ability to extract meaningful, machine-interpretable data from<\/span>

\n\tscholarly publications in PDF form is a big challenge.  Several open<\/span>

\n\tsource libraries exist that attempt to automate this process, but work<\/span>

\n\tneeds to be done on them to improve accuracy and reliability.  Some<\/span>

\n\tspecific and relevant  challenges include:<\/span>

\n\t

\n\tAbility to automatically identify and tokenize citations from the PDF<\/span>

\n\t(or more accurately, from a string of text)<\/span>

\n\tAbility to automatically identify those blocks of text that represent<\/span>

\n\tthe narrative in a PDF.<\/span>

\n\tAbility to identify references within the narrative, extract their<\/span>

\n\tscope, and associate them with citation information in the PDF.<\/span>

\n\t

\n\tAnybody interested is welcome to join us, we will announce more<\/span>

\n\tpresice details later on this week. Also, <\/span>we are looking for someone who co-organizes the meeting, ideally<\/span>

\n\tsomeone who is local to Montpellier or to France.<\/span>

\n\t

\n\tBest.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
