Universal Networking Language (UNL) is a declarative formal language specifically designed to represent semantic data extracted from natural language texts. It can be used as a pivot language in interlingual machine translation systems or as a knowledge representation language in information retrieval applications.
UNL was created at the Institute of Advanced Studies of the United Nations University, in Tokyo, and it has been developed at the UNDL Foundation, in Geneva, Switzerland, along with a large community of researchers all over the world (the so-called UNL Society).
