NL2SHACL-Bench: A Benchmark Suite for Natural Language to SHACL Translation
SHACL is a core technology for validating the conformance of RDF knowledge graphs (KGs). Yet, authoring SHACL shapes requires technical expertise that most domain experts lack. Translating natural language requirements into SHACL (NL2SHACL) would lower this barrier. However, there is no dedicated benchmark for NL2SHACL, and evaluating generated shapes requires methods beyond string comparison, as semantically equivalent shapes can differ in serialisation and structure. To tackle these challenges, we present NL2SHACL-Bench, a benchmark suite for natural language to SHACL translation. Using NL2SHACL-Bench, we evaluate four state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) for this task. Our res...
