We have relevant datasets, repositories, frameworks and tools of relevance for research and technology transfer initiatives related to knowledge extraction. This section provides an overview on a selection of them and links to download or contact details.

The MdM Strategic Research Program has its own community in Zenodo for material available in this repository  as well as at the UPF e-repository  . Below a non-exhaustive list of datasets representative of the research in the Department.

As part of the promotion of the availability of resources, the creation of specific communities in Zenodo has also been promoted, at level of research communities (for instance, MIR and Educational Data Analytics) or MSc programs (for instance, the Master in Sound and Music Computing)

Ferrés D, Saggion H, Ronzano F, Bravo À. PDFdigest: an adaptable layout-aware PDF-to-XML textual content extractor for scientific articles. Language Resources and Evaluation Conference (LREC 2018)

The availability of automated approaches and tools to extract structured textual content from PDF articles is essential to enable scientific text mining. This paper describes and evaluates the PDFdigest tool, a PDF-to-XML textual content extraction system specially designed to extract scientific articles’ headings and logical structure (title, authors, abstract,...) and its textual content. The extractor deals with both text-based and image-based PDF articles using custom rule-based algorithms implemented with existing state-of-the-art open-source tools for both PDF-to-HTML conversion and image-based PDF Optical Character Recognition.
