This project generates an ElasticSearch, or file index from Wikipedia (xml dumps). The process will analyze, extract and store Wikipedia article text and several distinct Wikipedia attributes and relations (detailed below).

• Export Wikipedia in different languages {English, French, Spanish, German, Chinese}
• Export other Wikimedia resources: {Wikipedia, Wikinews, Wikidata}
• Support storing to either an Elastic index or file system (json files)
• Support the extraction of Wikipedia article text clean of markdown and html tags
• Integrated with Intel NLP Architect
• Used in scientific research:
  • WEC: Wikipedia Event Coreference
  • Cross-document Event Coreference Search: Task, Dataset and Modeling

*Relations integrity tested only for English. Other languages might require some adjustments.

• Usage

In addition to exporting the clean article text from Wikipedia to Elastic or Json files, this project offers the ability to extract several distinct Wikipedia attributes and relations (listed below).

3 different types of Wikipedia pages are used: {Redirect/Disambiguation/Title} in order to extract 6 different semantic features for tasks such as Identifying Semantic Relations, Entity Linking, Cross Document Co-Reference, Knowledge Graphs, Summarization and other.

• Redirect Links - See details at Wikipedia Redirect
• Disambiguation Links - See details at Wikipedia Disambiguation
• Category Links - See details at Wikipedia Category
• Link Title Parenthesis - See details at paper "Extracting Lexical Reference Rules from Wikipedia"
• Infobox - See details at Wikipedia Infobox
• Term Frequency (TBD/WIP) - Hold a map of term frequency for computing TFIDF on Wikipadia

Listed below the Wikidata properties which can extend above attributes by running the Wikidata postprocess described below.

• Immediate Cause Of
• Has Immediate Cause

• Java 11
• Wikipedia xml.bz2 dump file in required language (For example latest en XML dump)
• Optional: ElasticSearch 7.17.4 (needed when exporting to an elastic index)
  • Recommended: Set Elastic using docker (docker/README.md)
  • Alternative:
    • Install Elastic from the official Elasticsearch site
    • Install plugins: analysis-icu, analysis-smartcn (guide)
• Optional: Wikidata json.bz2 dump file (latest JSON dump)

conf.json is the main process configuration file:

• exportMethod - Whether to export to Elastic Index (set to elastic) or json files (then set to json_files)
• extractRelationFields - When set to true will extract the relations fields (listed in relationTypes) while processing the data (support only with english Wikipedia)
• wikipediaDump - Wikipedia .bz2 downloaded dump file location
• lang - Support {en (English), fr (French), es (Spanish), de (German), zh (Chinese)}
• includeRawText - When set to true, will include the original wikipedia article text (in Markdown)
• includeParsedParagraphs - When set to true, will include a list of parsed wikipedia article paragraphs, clean of any markdown or html tags
• relationTypes - ["Category", "Infobox", "Parenthesis", "PartName"]. To export those relations, the extractRelationFields configuration need to be set to true (the full list of available relations is in /src/main/java/wiki/data/relations/RelationType.java)

config/json_file_conf.json is the configuration needed only when the exportMethod is set to json_files

• outIndexDirectory - The folder location where to save the exported files
• pagesPerFile - How many pages to save per file (100,000 pages ~ 0.5 GB)

config/elastic_conf.json - Those configurations are needed only when the exportMethod is set to elastic

• indexName - Set your desired Elastic Search index name
• docType - Set your desired Elastic Search documnent type
• insertBulkSize - Number of pages to bulk insert to elastic search every iteration (found 1000 to give best preformence)
• mapping - Elastic Mapping file, should point to src/main/resources/mapping.json
• setting - Elastic Setting file, current support {en, fr, es, de, zh}
• host - Elastic host
• port - Elastic port
• scheme - Elastic host schema (default: http)
• shards - Number of Elastic shards
• replicas - Number of Elastic replicas

src/main/resources/mapping.json - Elastic wiki index mapping (Should probably stay unchanged)

• src/main/resources/{en,es,fr,de,zh}_map_settings.json - Elastic index settings (Should probably stay unchanged)
• src/main/resources/lang/{en,es,fr,de,zh}.json - language specific configuration for relation key word translations
• src/main/resources/stop_words/{en,es,fr,de,zh}.txt - language specific stop-words list

• Make sure Elastic process is running and active on your host (if running Elastic locally your IP is http://localhost:9200/)

• Checkout/Clone the repository

• From command line navigate to project root directory and run:
  ./gradlew clean build -x test
  Should get a message saying: BUILD SUCCESSFUL in 7s

• Extract the build zip file created at this location build/distributions/WikipediaToElastic-1.0.zip

• Put wiki xml.bz2 dump file (no need to extract the bz2 file!) in: dumps folder
  Recommendation: Start with a small wiki dump, make sure you like what you get (or modify configurations to meet your needs) before moving to a full blown 15GB dump export.

• Make sure conf.json configurations are set as expected

• Make sure config folder configurations are set as expected

• Run the process from command line:
  java -Xmx6000m -DentityExpansionLimit=2147480000 -DtotalEntitySizeLimit=2147480000 -Djdk.xml.totalEntitySizeLimit=2147480000 -jar build/distributions/WikipediaToElastic-1.0/WikipediaToElastic-1.0.jar

• To test/query, you can run from terminal:
  curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/enwiki_v3/_search?pretty=true' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"size": 5, "query": {"match_phrase": { "title.near_match": "Alan Turing"}}}'

• Should return a wikipedia page on Alan Turing

Running this process require a Wikipedia index (generated by the above process)

Main configuration file for Wikidata export process, currently only support if Wikipedia was export to an Elasticsearch index.

• indexName - Elasticsearch index to enhance with wikidata attributes
• docType - Set your desired documnent type
• insertBulkSize - Number of pages to bulk insert to elastic search every iteration
• host - Elastic host
• port - Elastic port
• wikidataDump - Wikidata .bz2 downloaded dump file location
• scheme - Elastic host schema
• lang - should correlate with the wikipedia index language

• Make sure Elastic process is running and active on your host (if running Elastic locally your IP is http://localhost:9200/)

• Make sure wikidata_conf.json configuration are set as expected

• Run the process from command line:
  java -cp WikipediaToElastic-1.0.jar wiki.wikidata.WikiDataFeatToFile
  Process will read the full wikidata dump, parse, extract the relations and merge them relative wikipedia data in search index. Process might take a while to finish.

• To test/query, you can run from terminal:
  curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/enwiki_v3/_search?pretty=true' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"size": 5, "query": {"match_phrase": { "title.near_match": "Alan Turing"}}}'

This should return a wikipedia page on Alan Turing including the new Wikidata relations.

Once process is complete, two main query options are available (for more details and title query options, see mapping.json):

• title.plain - fuzzy search (sorted)
• title.keyword - exact match

Pages that have been created with the following structures (also see "Created Fields Attributes" for more details):
