When I use SILK [1] to create links between LinkedCT and (Bio2RDFs) PubMed [2] for diseases, and it gives me an error, which says: "Exception in thread "main" org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Character reference "" is an invalid XML character."
This seems to be because there are control sequences inside the output, as follows:
http://data.linkedct.org/resource/condition/17763
Transfusional Iron Overload in �-thalassemia Major
For example, here is one triple:
http://data.linkedct.org/resource/condition/17763 http://data.linkedct.org/resource/linkedct/condition_name "Transfusional Iron Overload in �-thalassemia Major"
which contains the "" character, which is gives the error as the java sax parser fails on trying to parse them and thus SILK fails.
