The WikiPhiloSofia project aims at extracting and visualizing meaningful and interesting relationships among philosophers through the automatic processing of the structural features and semantic content of Wikipedia pages.
At the current stage of initial prototype implementation, we deal with 300 Western philosophers (or influential thinkers, writers, scientists, etc.). Note that all information that will be presented concerning the philosophers are limited to the data extracted from hyperlinks, infoboxes, and wikitables in Wikipedia pages downloaded on 23 December 2008.
