From RDF datasets to Question Answering
In this tutorial we are going to make a Question Answering (QA) system on top of a KG!
You can either take your own RDF dataset (take a small one, or a snippet < 10MB) or this one here about cocktails. Here are some lines extracted from the cocktail KB and describing a cocktail called "Margarita" or "Upside Down Margarita". Moreover the snippet contains the information that the cocktails contains "Cointreau", "Tequila" and "Lime juice":
