Oramas S, Ferraro A, Correya A, Serra X. MEL: A music entity linking system. 18th International Society for Music Information Retrieval Conference (ISMIR17)
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)

Oramas S, Ferraro A, Correya A, Serra X. MEL: A music entity linking system. 18th International Society for Music Information Retrieval Conference (ISMIR17)
In this work, we present MEL, the first Music Entity Linking system. MEL is able to identify mentions of musical entities (e.g., album, songs, and artists) in free text, and disambiguate them to a music knowledge base, i.e., MusicBrainz. MEL combines different state-of-the-art libraries and SimpleBrainz, an RDF knowledge base created from MusicBrainz after a simplification process. MEL is released as a REST API and as an online demo Web.
