An Automatically Constructed Knowledge Graph for the Manuscripts of Giacomo Leopardi

This repository contains data and source code for a prototypical Knowledge Extraction application for the manuscripts of Leopardi preserved at the Cambridge University Digital Library.

The automatically extracted Knowledge Graph is available in this Turtle File.

Pipeline

The Knowledge Graph was extracted by using Babelscape's REBEL jointly with ChatGPT, which was used to pre-process the Italian text in natural language triples. An illustration of our pipeline is presented below.
