, 2019 In the previous chapter we were able to automatically process text by recognizing a limited set of entities. This chapter will introduce the world of semantics, and present step-by-step examples to retrieve and enhance text and data processing by using semantics. The goal is to equip the reader with the basic set of skills to explore semantic resources
