ONTOLOGY 🖍️

This section presents an Ontology meant for describing processes of generation and validation of links in detail, so that decisions made such as resource selections and matching options are made explicit. Those processes are implemented in the Lenticular Lens tool and result in the creation of Linksets or Lenses according to a specification. we call the proposed ontology VoID+ as it is proposed as an extension of the [VoID] vocabulary.

The next section presents the motivation for such extension while Section 3.2 and Section 3.3 respectively present the main elements proposed as extension for VoID and the complete and detailed description of the VoID+ extension.

1. Motivation to extend VoID

The model presented in Figure 1 is created based on the [VoID] documentation and owl-ontology description, where ellipses represent classes, thick arrows represent subclass or sub-property relations (hierarchy) and thin arrows represent properties. In this model, only classes and relations of interest are exhibit.

Ontology
Fig 1: Excerpt of VoId Ontology regarding void:Dataset and void:Linkset.

The [VoID] vocabulary provides means to describe datasets and linksets, but with limitations.

  • Too strict linkset definition: The first important limitation that motivates our proposal for extension is that void:Linkset is (1) too restrictive as it is directed and holds between exactly two non-identical datasets. This semantic does not allow a linkset to hold for a dataset deduplication.

  • Data Partitioning: The next limitation is the ambiguous descriptions of subsets or partition of a void:Dataset. This concept is in our theory very important and requires more clarity and expressivity.

    • Direction: (2) The reading direction of the property void:subset is “has subset” but it can easily be misused as it can also be read as “is subset of” as well.
    Example 1: The Direction of the void:subset property

    The extract below are from the VoID documentation page.

    The first annotation on the Aggregate Dataset ex:Aggregate_DS reads as “ex:Aggregate_DS has subset ex:DS_A and ex:DS_B”, which is the correct reading for stating that “ex:Aggregate_DS is composed of Datases A and B.

    Now, to state that a linkset is a part of a larger dataset, they again use the same void:subset property. However, the annotation statement reads in the opposite direction as “DBpedia_Geonames is subset of DBpedia”. To our understanding, the latter reading can not be correct.

    ex:Aggregate_DS a void:Dataset ;
        dcterms:title           "Aggregate Dataset";
        dcterms:description     "An aggregate of the A and B datasets."; 
        void:sparqlEndpoint     <http://example.org/sparql> ;
        void:subset             ex:DS_A ;
        void:subset             ex:DS_B .
    
    ex:DBpedia_Geonames 
         a                      void:Linkset;
        void:target            :DBpedia ;
        void:target            :Geonames ;
        void:subset            :DBpedia ;
        void:triples           252000 .
    

    • Combination: VoID allows a dataset to originate from a combination of class-partitions and/or property-partitions. However, (3) it falls short in providing means to make clear how several partitions of a void:Dataset ought to be combined. In Example 2, ex:myData is a void:Dataset based on class and property partitions, stating that the dataset is of entities of type ex:AIStudent who had an internship or exchange program. From this, how one would differ between a Partition formed of entities that are [AIStudents and (had an internship or had an exchange program)] from another formed by entities that are [AIStudents or had an internship or had an exchange program]?
    Example 2: Interpreting a partition
    ex:myData a void:Dataset ;
        void:classPartition [ void:class ex:AIStudent ] ;
        void:propertyPartition [ void:property ex:hasIntership ] ;
        void:propertyPartition [ void:property ex:hasExchangeProgram ] .
    
    • Value-range restriction: Moreover, (4) it also falls short on providing means to restrict entities based on the value-range of a property, or language for that matter. How one would differ between a Partition formed of entities that are [AIStudents and born before the year 2000] from another formed by entities that are [AIStudents or born before the year 2000]?
  • Reproducibility, (5) it also does not describe the details of how void:Linkset is generated.

  • Others: Furthermore, (6) it does not provide means to describe Lenses or Validations.

While a description of the classes and properties exhibited in Fig 1 is made available in the table below, limitations of the VoID vocabulary and possible solutions are further discussed in the next section.

2. VoID+ Main Elements

This section presents the main elements proposed as extension for VoID. It provides a simplified overview (Fig. 2) of VoID+ by (i) only describing the classes and properties that are of importance in this work and (ii) omitting hierarchical relations among classes. While the complete and detailed description of the VoID+ extension is provided in the next section, the complete ontology overview (figure) and the documentation extracted from the owl file are available in section 3.4.

Ontology
Fig 2: The Lenticular Lens Ontology

The partial model of the simplified oververview depicted in Fig. 2 highlights in yellow the use of [VoID] terms and in blue the new VoID+ terminology . In order to describe the proposed ontology, we dissect Fig 2 into four parts.

  • First, a Resource Selection is elucidated.

  • Second, we go about describing a LinksetFormulation and show how it connects with a Resource Selection.

  • The third step highlights that the description of a Linkset metadata involves specifying the Resource Selections used at the source and target positions of an entity matching process, the Linkset Formulation, eventual validations plus statistics and authority information.

  • The fourth and final step focuses on the annotation of a Lens by describing the combination of one or more Linksets and/or Lenses.

2.1 Resource Selection

This step concerns the selection of the resources under scrutiny, that can potentially end up co-referent entities across or within datasources during an entity matching process. To therefore perform a matching, one first needs not only to select datasource(s) but also restrict which resources will undergo the matching. The first way of doing so is by applying a type (class) restriction. This is mandatory in the Lenticular Lens process as matching algorithms are not fully automated. Down this line, further restrictions can be applied by forcing the value of a number of properties to lie within a certain range. A Resource Selection is thereby, the annotation of such process.

In the ontology excerpt depicted in Figure 3 we propose the entity type Resource Selection, which is a void+:Partition based on a void:classPartition and/or void:propertyPartition. While a void:classPartition solely consists in specifying the type of entity under scrutiny, the void:propertyPartition entails a little more. It consists in specifying a property or property path and a restriction that the selected property should undergo for the selection of the right entities for the further down the road entity matching process. Those restrictions can be combined using a Formula Description given by void+:hasFormulaDescription.


EntitySelection Fig 3: Selecting a matching resource

Example 3: Resource Selection

In this example,

  • the entity resource:ResourceSelection-2 is a void+:ResourceSelection (and a void:Dataset) subset of resource:index_op_doopregister_raw_20190830 and also a collection (partition) of entities of type pnv:PersonName where each entity passed the filter test of (1) name in the English language which appears without trailing dots "%...%"@en and (2) birthdates within the interval [1600, 1699].
  • the entity resource:ResourceSelection-2 lists all three entities of type void+:PropertyConstraint and elaborates on the logic expression that binds all restrictions. For example, the property restriction described by resource:PropertyConstraint-PHce78383e3ff6e9dd73b6 documents that, applying the date function "minimal_date"@en over dates in the format the "YYYY-MM-DD"@en with the year restriction of 1600 makes sure that only persons born on 1600 onwards are admitted.
Turtle Syntax

When ever a literal in RDF syntax conatins quote or new line characters, the litreal should be in a three quote syntax ("...""@en). In the example below, we deliberately wrote the literal value of void+:hasFormulaDescription is in a single quote ("...""@en) instead of a triple quote ("""%...%="""@en) as the syntax highliter is somewhat buggy.

2.2 Linkset Formulation

For simple matching problems, finding co-referents can be done using a single matching algorithm (matcher). However, time and again the data reality often imposes the use of more than one matcher instead. In this latter scenario, clearly reporting on how these matchers work together for detecting co-referents is essential. A Linkset Formulation entity is a resource for just doing the aforementioned, as depicted in Figure 4.

Once resources of type Resource Restriction are created, one can go ahead and used them for specifying the restricted collections to be used in a particular Matching Method, which also specifies the Matching Algorithm and its arguments such as threshold, range and operator. In the end, all Matching Methods used in a matching process are documented in the Linkset Formulation resource as well as how they bind together in a logic expression given by the predicate void+:hasFormulaDescription.

Example 4: Linkset Logic Expression

In Example 2.8, the resource:PHb99da2ecd91ad533af65 is a void+:MatchingFormulation listing eight void+:MatchingMethods used for creating a linkset. They their logic combination is described as void+:hasFormulaDescription. Among the void+:MatchingMethods, the resource:TIME_DELTA-PHfdc744f6bd0ced4e283a is the only method detailes in this example, documenting the four void+:ResourceSelections involved, as well as the chosen void+:MatchingAlgorithm, namely resource:TIME_DELTA, besides the threshold (20), threshold-unit (“Year”@en), threshold-operator (>=) and threshold-range “â„•” of the matching method.

Turtle Syntax

When ever a literal in RDF syntax conatins quote or new line characters, the litreal should be in a three quote syntax ("...""@en). In the example below, we deliberately wrote the literal value of void+:hasFormulaDescription is in a single quote ("...""@en) instead of a triple quote ("""%...%="""@en) as the syntax highliter is somewhat buggy.

2.3 Linkset

This step documents a linkset metadata including WHAT - HOW - WHEN - WHO and other processes explaining the aboutness of links. The Linkset Formulation specifies HOW entities are matched and Resource Selection specifies WHAT to match as subject and object targets. Also some statistic on the matching results can be reported such as the number of links found, the numbers of entities linked, WHO created the linkset and WHEN. Finally, a Validation entity can also be specified, comprising metadata with statitics and auhtority information on the validation process. Observe that when one or more validations are provided, statistics on this matter can be included in the linkset metadata, including eventual contradictions if one validation says a link is correct while another says it is not.

As discussed earlier in this section, according to the [VoID] documentation, the void:Linkset definition expects as datasources exactly one source and one target, different from each other. This means it is more restrictive than the void+:Linkset here proposed, since the latter also expects a linkset to contain links within a datasource or across more than two. Therefore, we do not directly reuse that concept (and its correspoding properties void:subjects/objectsTarget). Naturally, one could still use void:Linkset for other purposes, but at the risk of abusing the VoID vocabulary if its instances do not really fit the required restrictions. Moreover, a void:Linkset (i.e. a resource representing a linkset’s metadata) is also not an instance of void+:Linkset since the later requires the description of the processes underlying the creation of the links, which is not the case for the first.

2.4 Lens

Another process relevant to document is the creation of Lenses. In short, a lens is the result of a set-like operation over one or more Linkset and or Lens. Therefore, the entity Lens documents them as void+:hasTarget

3. VoID+ Ontology

VoID provides interesting means to annotate datasets in the broad sense – such as subset, class and property partitions, and many more. However, it does not offer a variety of dataset-types to deal with. To alleviate this limitation, VoID+ proposes a range of dataset subtypes of importance for annotation clarity, along with their relations enriched with (more precise) cardinality, domain and range restrictions that supports communicating the intended meaning of those vocabularies. Hopefully, this helps avoiding miss-usage and allows for reasoning so that possible miss-usage that lead to inconsistencies can be detected. To this end, VoID+ offers:

  • Partition: for enabling better clarity on how a dataset is derived from another dataset based on one or more type of partitions.

  • LinkDataset: for discriminating among sets of links depending on the (i) number of datasets involved, (ii) importance of link direction and (iii) how a link or set of links came to be.

  • Validation: a separation of concern for clearly allowing multiple validations of the same link or set of links.

  • IntegrationView: For expressing the result of one’s view on data integration.

The remainder of this section discuses the complete and detailed description of the VoID+ extension through these aforementioned discriminating types. It first addresses the void+:Partition of void:Dataset and then tackles the void+:LinkDataset which is considered a special sub-type of void:Dataset. Finally Validation and IntegrationView are discussed in the last two subsections. The documentation extracted from the owl file is presented in the next section.

3.1 Partitions of void:Dataset

The VoID vocabulary defines void:Dataset as a dataset superset but does make available a granularity of subsets for refined work. VoID+ extends the void:Dataset class by distinguishes between five subsets of void:Dataset. A void:Dataset that is defined as a subset of another one is called void+:Partition. Three types of void+:Partition are distinguished according to the type of partition that is used:

  • (i) void+:ClassPartition: the dataset is the result of an rdfs:Class based-partition;

  • (ii) void+:PropertyPartition: the dataset is the result of a rdf:Property or by a rdf:Seq – defining a sequence of two or more of properties – partition;

  • (iii) void+:Language: the dataset is the result of a language partition given by a standardised ISO language code.

Another special type of partition is the void+:ResourceSelection. It is defined by one or more partions of the type above described.

Fig. 7 provides a straightforward understanding of how the class void:Dataset is extended. On its the left hand side, Fig. 7 presents a view on the classes, their hierarchy and how they are connected via object properties. On the one hand, the property void:subset and its sub-properties are extended such that they provide a directional non-ambiguous reading. On the other hand, void:class and void:property are grouped into a superclass void+:partionedBy which also includes void:language to allow for one more type of partition. In particular, void:property is extended with a more generic relation void+:property that allows for describing a sequence of properties like in a property path.

VoID+
Fig 7: VoID+ Extension on the void:Dataset

The void+:LinkDataset concept is a specific type of void:Dataset allowing for distinguishing among sets of links depending on the (i) number of datasets involved, (ii) importance of link direction and (iii) how a link or set of links came to be. A quick take on this is to say that a void+:LinkDataset is a Dataset that contains links that may have been established among one (deduplication), two or many datasets.

Figure 8 illustrates on the left hand side how the class void:Linkset is extended upward – with superclasses less restrictive with respect to its targets – by showing a hierarchical view of the classes as well as how they connect via the available object properties.

When the creation of a void+:LinkDataset is such that it imposes that subjects always belong to the same datasets as well as objects, this is called void+:DirectedLinkDataset. This is the case for both void:Linkset and for our definition of void+:Linkset. The former, however, requires exactly one dataset as target for its subjects and another as target for its objects. In addition, our definition of void+:Linkset. is also a void+:DocumentedLinkDataset, which requires more detailed documentation, including targets described as void+:ResourceSelection (all values from) and a void+:formulation. A void+:Lens is also a void+:DocumentedLinkDataset which has one void:LensFormulation that specifies which void:LinkDatasets are combined and how.

The right hand side of Figure 8 presents a hierarchy of properties in order to provide an understanding of how void:target and its sub-properties are extended. They actually are extended with superclasses having as range not only a void:Linkset but its superclass void+:LinkDataset.
