Which Are the Low-Resource Languages of the Semantic Web?

arXiv:2605.05929v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Emerging digital technologies are exacerbating the existing divide in Open Access Data (OAD) between high-and low-resource languages, excluding many communities from the global digital transformation. Multilingual Linked Open Data Knowledge Graphs (LOD KGs) could contribute to mitigating this divide through cross-lingual transfer; however, no clear quantitative definition of low-resource languages has yet been established in the context of LOD KGs. In this poster, we present a methodology to analyze the distribution of languages across LOD KGs and propose a preliminary multi-level categorization based on DBpedia, BabelNet, and Wikidata. This categorization is leveraged to bring a formal definition of low-, high-, and medium-resource languages that could be later leveraged to select cross-lingual transfer candidates.
