Linked data quality of DBpedia, Freebase, OpenCyc, Wikidata, and YAGO
Open accessAbstract
In recent years, several noteworthy large, cross-domain, and openly available knowledge graphs (KGs) have been created. These include DBpedia, Freebase, OpenCyc, Wikidata, and YAGO. Although extensively in use, these KGs have not been subject to an in-depth comparison so far. In this survey, we pro vide data quality criteria according to which KGs can be analyzed and analyze and compare the above mentioned KGs. Furthermore, we propose a framework for finding the most suitable KG for a given setting.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
