Abstract
Wikipedia has become one of the largest and fastest growing online sources of encyclopedic knowledge. As a large-scale repository of structured knowledge, Wikipedia can be a valuable resource for a diverse set of srtificial intelligence (AI) applications. Major conferences in natural language processing and machine learning have recently witnessed a significant number of approaches that use Wikipedia for tasks ranging from text categorization and clustering to word sense disambiguation, information retrieval, information extraction and question answering. On the other hand, Wikipedia can greatly benefit from numerous algorithms and representation models developed during decades of AI research, as illustrated recently in tasks such as estimating the reliability of authors' contributions, automatic linking of articles, or intelligent matching of Wikipedia tasks with potential contributors. The goal of this workshop was to foster the research and dissemination of ideas on the mutually beneficial interaction between Wikipedia and AI. The workshop was intended to be highly interdisciplinary.
