The key challenge for Scalable Question Answering over Linked Data is the need to translate a user’s information request into such a form that it can be efficiently evaluated using standard Semantic Web query processing and inferencing techniques.

Therefore, the main task of SQA Challenge is the following: given an RDF dataset and and a large volume of natural language questions or keywords, return the correct answers (or SPARQL queries that retrieves those answers).

Training dataset and documentation are available:
* Training dataset: https://project-hobbit.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=00d040a1bedee64c86d8911b0&id=3255fbf78b&e=4b15f14c69
* Description: https://project-hobbit.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=00d040a1bedee64c86d8911b0&id=eab98af4c1&e=4b15f14c69

In the Scalable Question Answering Challenge (SQA) users can display the capabilities of their systems using the HOBBIT platform (https://project-hobbit.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=00d040a1bedee64c86d8911b0&id=6825fb498c&e=4b15f14c69) provided by the homonymous H2020 project.

Participants will be expected to describe their solution and results on the training datasets over a 5 page paper. In particular, a short summary of the approach chosen, a link to the experimental results and an analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the approach are expected.
