  "The core idea of the Semantic Web vision is the evolution from a Web of human-readable pages to a machine-interpretable Web of Data. We explore how Virtual Research Environments support research interactions with RDF data. Natural Language Generation is applied to improve user interfaces to the Web of Data: we present a method to verbalize SPARQL queries and a language-independent approach to induce RDF verbalization templates from a parallel corpus of text and data."
