Motivation
The motivation for our project was to explore the possibilities of natural-language generation in the context of biography generation. It is easy to get structural data from the Wikidata pages, but not all the Wikidata pages have a corresponding Wikipedia page. This project will showcase how we can use the structural data from the Wikidata pages to generate realistic biographies in the Wikipedia pages format.
Project plan

- Wikidata is used to gather the structured information about the people who lived in the Republic of Venice. Multiple information are extracted from their wikidata entries, such as: birth and death times, professions and family names. To gether the data from wikidata, a customizable SPARQL query is used.
