In this paper we present an ongoing project to carry out a computational analysis of Italian war bulletins in WWI and WWII, by applying state-of-the-art tools for NLP and Information Extraction. The annotated texts and extracted information will be explored with a dedicated Web interface, allowing for multidimensional access and exploration of historical events through space and time.}, KEYWORDS = {World War I}, PAGES = {70-75}, URL = {http://www.lrec-conf.org/proceedings/lrec2014/workshops/LREC2014Workshop-LRT4HDA%20Proceedings.pdf}, PUBLISHER = {European language resources association (ELRA) (Paris, FRA)}, CONFERENCE_NAME = {LREC 2014}, CONFERENCE_PLACE = {Reykjavik}, CONFERENCE_DATE = {26 May}, BOOKTITLE = {Proceedings of workshop on Language resources and technologies for processing and linking historical documents and archives-Deploying Linked Open Data in Cultural Heritage-LREC 2014, 26 May, Reykjavik, Iceland}, }
