Textual Entailment > Resources:
Textual entailment systems rely on many different types of NLP resources, including term banks, paraphrase lists, parsers, named-entity recognizers, etc. With so many resources being continuously released and improved, it can be difficult to know which particular resource to use when developing a system.
In response, the Recognizing Textual Entailment (RTE) shared task community initiated a new activity for building this Textual Entailment Resource Pool. RTE participants and any other member of the NLP community are encouraged to contribute to the pool.
In an effort to determine the relative impact of the resources, RTE participants are strongly encouraged to report, whenever possible, the contribution to the overall performance of each utilized resource. Formal qualitative and quantitative results should be included in a separate section of the system report as well as posted on the talk pages of this Textual Entailment Resource Pool.
Adding a new resource is very easy. See how to use existing templates to do this in Help:Using Templates.

Knowledge Resources
The RTE Knowledge Resources page presents:
- a call for resources, inviting system developers to share the resources used by their own TE engines, to both help improve the TE technology and further test and evaluate such resources;
- the ablation tests carried out in the RTE challenges in order to evaluate the impact of knowledge resources and tools on TE system performances;
- lists of knowledge resources, both publicly available and unpublished, used by systems participating in the last RTE challenges.
Projects
- CoSyne EU project The Cross-Lingual Multilingual Content Synchronization with Wikis.
- EXCITEMENT EU project EXploring Customer Interactions through Textual EntailMENT.
- QALL-ME EU project Question Answering Learning technologies in a multiLingual and Multimodal Environment.
