h1. Introduction
h2. OWLIM Rules and Reasoning Dialect
RS3.1 FRs were implemented using reasoning dialect "OWL RL (optimized)", i.e. builtin_owl2-rl.pie.
We used constructs owl:PropertyChainAxiom, owl:TransitiveProperty, owl:ReflexiveProperty, and rdfs:subPropertyOf (which amounts to disjunction).
But as described in [OWLIM Rules vs OWL RL#Less Expressive], OWL RL is less expressive than OWLIM Rules, since one cannot define a property by conjunction.
We are pretty sure the full FR set will require conjunction, so we'll go with OWLIM Rules. See [OWLIM Rules documentation|http://owlim.ontotext.com/display/OWLIMv43/OWLIM-SE+Reasoner#OWLIM-SEReasoner-RuleFormatandSemantics].
We'll use the RDFS reasoning dialect as a basis, by weaving our rules into builtin_RdfsRules.pie. That file is part of the OWLIM distribution, in my case
c:\my\Onto\proj\OWLIM\software\owlim-se-4.2.3924\builtin_RdfsRules.pie
h2. Weaving for Production
This page is used to generate OWLIM artefacts for production. We "weave" them from \{code} blocks in the page, following [Literate Programming|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literate_Programming]. We weave several files based on code block titles:
||Title ||Weaved into||
|Turtle | (x) (not yet implemented) FR.ttl, The old file RF.ttl will be deleted from svn|
|Prefices| builtin_RdfsRules.pie, at the beginning of section Prefices (after the opening brace)|
|Axioms | builtin_RdfsRules.pie, at the beginning of section Axioms (after the opening brace)|
|Rule | builtin_RdfsRules.pie, at end of file (before the closing brace)|
|Rules | same place, but these are shorthand rules (see below)|
- the weaver automatically generates rule identifiers in the form "Id: fr$n" where $n is a counter
- "Rule" includes one rule per code block in the OWLIM notation, eg:
{code}
premise1 [Constraint ...]
premise2 [Cut]
-------------------
corollary1
corollary2
{code}
- "Rules" includes one rule per line in a shorthand notation, eg:
{code}
premise1 [Constraint ...]; premise2 [Cut] => corollary1; corollary2
{code}
The shortcut notation is translated to the OWLIM notation. This shortcut form is very useful for shorter rules
h2. Rule Validation
In addition to weaving FR-implementation.pie, the script performs rule validation: for each rule, checks that variables are used in a "linear" fashion, eg
{code:title=Example}
x <rdf:type> <rso:FC70_Thing>; x <crm:prop1> y; y <rso:subFR> z => x <rso:FR> z
{code}
Variables on the LHS should form a chain, with possible type-check branches.
The RHS should use the first and last var in the same order
h2. Modularity and Naming
A very important aspect of our implementation is modularity: we define appropriate sub-FRs and use them when defining FRs.
We use the Erlangen CRM (ECRM) naming variant (underscores instead of dots), and the following naming conventions:
- crm: Enn_entity_name, crm: Pnn_property_name: CRM entities and properties
- rso:FRnn_name: property representing an FR
-- rso stands for "RS ontology"
-- nn is a number that we try to keep the same as a related CRM property number (eg FR7_thing_from_place is numbered after P7_took_place_at)
- rso:FRXnn_name: property representing a sub-FR
-- if the sub-FR is a disjunction of several CRM properties, we mention all numbers
FRX_62_67 := P62_depicts or P67_refers_to
- rso:FRTnn_name: transitive closure of crm: Pnn_name
-- we denote this as FRTnn_name := Pnn_name+
- rso:FRSTnn_name: symmetric-transitive closure of crm: Pnn_name
-- we denote this as FRSTnn_name := (Pnn_name or Pnni_inverse_name)+
- rso:FCnn_name: Fundamental Concept or another class used in defining FRs
h2. FR Dependency Graph
FR-weave.pl generates a dependency graph (processed with graphviz dot) showing which CRM props and sub-FRs are used in the implementation of each FR. Legend:
- plain text: 51 source classes/properties
- filled rectangles: 13 intermediate sub-FRs
- rectangles: 19 target FRs
This lets you see which CRM properties are "bundled" into which FRs.
- It was an indispensable debugging aid while creating th FRs (that there are no disconnected properties, each FR uses all source properties as expected, etc).
- Similar info about the old implementation is at [FR Implementation-old#FR Summary (Short Variant)] or [FR Implementation-old#FR Summary (Long Variant)]

h2. Prefixes
This would add prefixes to FR.ttl (but we don't use such file):
{code:title=Turtle}
@prefix crm : <http://erlangen-crm.org/current/> .
@prefix owl : <http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#> .
@prefix rdf : <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> .
@prefix rdfs : <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> .
@prefix rso : <http://www.researchspace.org/ontology/> .
{code}
This adds prefixes to the rules file (it already has: rdf rdfs owl xsd):
{code:title=Prefices}
crm : http://erlangen-crm.org/current/
ptop: http://www.ontotext.com/proton/protontop#
bmo : http://collection.britishmuseum.org/id/ontology/
rso : http://www.researchspace.org/ontology/
{code}
h2. Transitive Properties
h3. TransitiveProperty
owl:TransitiveProperty is a well-known OWL type stating that a property is transitive. ECRM declares the appropriate CRM properties as transitive, but for some reason it doesn't declare P9,P46 transitive (other "part of" properties, eg P106,P148 are transitive). I posted a bug to CRM SIG and fix it here:
{code:title=Axioms}
<crm:P9_consists_of> <rdf:type> <owl:TransitiveProperty>
<crm:P9i_forms_part_of> <rdf:type> <owl:TransitiveProperty>
<crm:P46_is_composed_of> <rdf:type> <owl:TransitiveProperty>
<crm:P46i_forms_part_of> <rdf:type> <owl:TransitiveProperty>
{code}
The full list of transitive properties is:
- P9_consists_of, P9i_forms_part_of (ADDED)
- P10_falls_within, P10i_contains
- P46_is_composed_of, P46i_forms_part_of (ADDED)
- P86_falls_within, P86i_contains
- P88_consists_of, P88i_forms_part_of
- P89_falls_within, P89i_contains
- P106_is_composed_of, P106i_forms_part_of
- P114_is_equal_in_time_to
- P115_finishes, P115i_is_finished_by
- P116_starts, P116i_is_started_by
- P117_occurs_during, P117i_includes
- P120_occurs_before, P120i_occurs_after
- P127_has_broader_term, P127i_has_narrower_term
- P148_has_component, P148i_is_component_of
Note: we used to use owl:TransitiveProperty to make the transitive closure for some sub-FRs. But now we prefer to do it with explicit rules, since we want to always start at FC70_Thing, so as to eliminate useless triples
h3. transitiveOver
ptop:transitiveOver is a useful generalization defined by the [Proton Ontology|http://www.ontotext.com/proton-ontology]. The semantics is defined with the following axiom:
{noformat}(p,transitiveOver,q) (x,p,y) (y,q,z) => (x,p,z){noformat}
Sample usage is:
{noformat}(locatedIn, transitiveOver, subRegionOf) (Ontotext,locatedIn,Bulgaria) (Bulgaria,subRegionOf,Europe) => (Ontotext,locatedIn,Europe){noformat}
We use this in FR-Transitive.ttl (described in [FR Transitivity]) to state that certain FRs are transitive over skos:broader.
We use the RDFS reasoning dialect as a basis, which implements rdfs:subClassOf and rdfs:subPropertyOf reasoning. To this we add relevant rules from builtin_owl2-rl.pie:
{code:title=Rules}
p <ptop:transitiveOver> q; x p y; y q z => x p z
p <rdf:type> <owl:TransitiveProperty>; x p y; y p z => x p z
{code}
TODO: ptop:transitiveOver is more efficient than owl:TransitiveProperty since it uses only the step relation (eg skos:broader) but not its transitive closure (eg skos:broaderTransitive). Unfortunately CRM doesn't define step relations for its transitive properties.
h2. Inverse Properties
Most CRM properties have an inverse, eg P110i_was_augmented_by is inverse of P110_augmented (Symmetric properties are their own inverse). ECRM declares all inverse properties as owl:inverseOf. Inverse reasoning is useful since it frees you from dependencies on how exactly the data is asserted:
{code:title=Rules}
p <owl:inverseOf> q; x p y => y q x
p <owl:inverseOf> q; x q y => y p x
{code}
h2. Symmetric Properties
ECRM declares all CRM symmetric properties as owl:SymmetricProperty. ECRM always declares them as owl:inverseOf itself, so we don't need to treat them separately. Eg:
{code}
crm:P122_borders_with rdf:type owl:SymmetricProperty.
crm:P122_borders_with owl:inverseOf crm:P122_borders_with.
{code}
The full list of symmetric properties is:
- P69_is_associated_with
- P114_is_equal_in_time_to
- P121_overlaps_with
- P122_borders_with
- P132_overlaps_with
- P133_is_separated_from
h2. No Reflexive Closure
FR definitions are full of reflexive-transitive sub-FRs. In FRThing.docx they are denoted (Pnnn)(0,n), and below we denote them as Pnn*. Eg
- x from z := x P74 y AND y P89* z
But it's bad style to use reflexive closure in the implementation since it generates lots of trivial facts (self-loops) in the semantic repository. Instead of reflexive closure, we use disjunction: the iterated property is applied 0 times in the first disjunct, and n times in the second, eg:
- x from z := x P74 z OR (x P74 y AND y P89+ z)
h2. FR Notes
FR design in the following sections is based on FRThing.docx by M.Doerr and K.Tzompanaki, after clarifications and corrections by V.Alexiev.
- We don't implement FRs:
-- for which there is no data in neither Rembrandt nor BM collections
-- that are interesting for history/archaeology but not museum collections (eg Destroyed at)
-- that use the CRM Digital (CRMdig) extensions
- We omit composite FR such as "Was created/produced by person from" since they are treated separately
- In many cases we don't check types, since these are implied by the domain/range of a property. Eg in:
-- E24_Physical_Man-Made_Thing -- P128_carries -> E73_Information_Object
the property P128 implies that the source and target have the indicated types
- We check types (FC70_Thing) as early as possible to eliminate useless inferences
- We define FRs and sub-FRs using [SPARQL Property Paths|http://www.w3.org/TR/sparql11-property-paths/#path-language]
h1. Fundamental Concepts
h2. Thing
h3. FC70_Thing in General
"Thing" is defined as the following (was called C1.Object):
- FC70_Thing := E70_Thing NOT E21_Person NOT E55_Type NOT E30_Right NOT E41_Appellation
The concept of "NOT subclass" is not expressible with OWLIM rules:
- OWLIM rules can check != class, but not subclasses
- <owl:complementOf> and <owl:disjointWith> are used only for consistency checking (to infer a contradiction), not to define classes
I tried enumerating negative classes:
{code:title=Rule-WRONG}
x <rdf:type> t [Constraint t!=<crm:E21_Person>, t!=<crm:E55_Type>, t!=<crm:E30_Right>, t!=<crm:E41_Appellation>]
t <rdfs:subClassOf> <crm:E70_Thing>
--------------------
x <rdf:type> <rso:FC70_Thing>
{code}
But that doesn't work (even if I enumerate all negative subclasses), since an E21_Person (negative) is also an E19_Physical_Object (positive), and we want E19.
Enumerating positive classes doesn't work either, for the same reason.
So FC70 would need to be implemented in SPARQL, eg
{code:sql|title=SPARQL}
?x rdf:type crm:E70_Thing.
NOT (?x rdf:type crm:E21_Person, etc)
{code}
h3. FC70_Thing and FR_dataset for RS
In RS we compute a dataset, which is important to select the right RForm; and to display a Dataset facet in the RS search. We now have 3 datasets (RKD, BM, YCBA):
- RKD data includes sub-objects (eg related/n is a related work, part/n is a frame that is part of a painting) that we can't display, so we introduced an extension sub-class rso:E22_Museum_Object. Because Rembrandt paintings come from different places, RKD data has varying keepers/owners: Mauritshuis, Rijksmuseum, Metropolitan, NGA.
- BM data uses crm:E22_Man-Made_Object. One of the current keepers is always the BM. The current owner may be missing (see [BM Association Mapping Problems#Poor Acquisition]), so we need to check both P52 and P50
- YCBA data uses crm:E22_Man-Made_Object, and the keeper/owner is YCBA.
The BM has two sameAs URIs
- http://collection.britishmuseum.org/id/the-british-museum
- http://collection.britishmuseum.org/id/person-institution/104636
So to avoid duplicate results, we define the dataset as a literal.
Then FC70_Thing is defined as something with a dataset.
{code:title=Rules}
x <rdf:type> <rso:E22_Museum_Object> => x <rso:FR_dataset> "RKD"
x <rdf:type> <crm:E22_Man-Made_Object>; x <crm:P50_has_current_keeper> <http://collection.britishmuseum.org/id/the-british-museum> => x <rso:FR_dataset> "BM"
x <rdf:type> <crm:E22_Man-Made_Object>; x <crm:P52_has_current_owner> <http://collection.britishmuseum.org/id/the-british-museum> => x <rso:FR_dataset> "BM"
x <rdf:type> <crm:E22_Man-Made_Object>; x <crm:P50_has_current_keeper> <http://vocab.getty.edu/ulan/500303557> => x <rso:FR_dataset> "YCBA"
x <rdf:type> <crm:E22_Man-Made_Object>; x <crm:P52_has_current_owner> <http://vocab.getty.edu/ulan/500303557> => x <rso:FR_dataset> "YCBA"
x <rso:FR_dataset> y => x <rdf:type> <rso:FC70_Thing>
{code}
Note: the Yale URI changed to a true ULAN URI, see [Yale Mapping Problems#Getty URIs]
h1. Fundamental Relations
h2. Sub-FRs
Here we define some auxiliary (sub) FRs that are used below.
We are careful to root all of them on FC70_Thing in order not to generate useless triples

# At beginning: does not allow paths of mixed properties (eg P130-P130i, P106-P148), or with P46,P106,P148 preceding P130,P130i
#- Resolved: we mix all these properties freely: any path of the indicated properties, in any order, of any length
# At E73_Information_Object: does not allow P106_is_composed_of, P148_has_component which are legitimate for E73 (being a subclass of both E89_Propositional_Object and E90_Symbolic_Object)
#- Resolved: we add P128 into the mix.
Did we mix it up too much? I think it's ok: not all allowed paths are correct, but all correct and relevant paths are allowed

- Thing was made from Thing
- Thing has part Thing

h4. Navigating the Event Hierarchy
{jira:RS-1832}
"Thing present at Ancient Egypt" (thes:x107598) should find all:
- things produced in that culture/period, eg GAA42731
- things produced in any sub-period thereof, eg GAA86605 (which is from the 26th Dynasty)
The data is like this:
{section}
{column}
{noformat}
<GAA42731> P108i_was_produced_by <GAA42731/production>.
<GAA42731/production> P9_consists_of <GAA42731/production/2>.
<GAA42731/production/2> P10_falls_within thes:x107598.
thes:x107598 skos:broader thes:x112519.
{noformat}
{column}
!FR12_was_present_at_data.png!
{column}
{section}
The BM data has some inconsistencies:
# As reported at [FR Transitivity#From Period]: the Period thesaurus uses only skos:broader but not P9_consists_of to make the hierarchy.
We fixed this in FRs in Jun 2013 with the file FR-Transitivity.ttl
# As reported at [BM Association Mapping Problems#Production sub-event not connected] in Jul 2013: there's no direct link between <GAA42731> and <GAA42731/production/2>.
I don't believe any of the problems reported on that page are fixed by BM
To cater to these inconsistencies, the FRs loop by (P9,P10,skos:broader)* which means:
If present at an event, a thing is considered to also be present at:
- sub-events (P9)
- super-periods (P10)
- their super-periods (skos:broader)
But as you see, the hierarchy is navigated *up and down*, which violates principles of covariance.
{warning}
If a data provider uses P9_consists_of instead of skos:broader to connect Periods (whcih is the *right* thing), the following false inference will result:
- GAA42731 was present at Ancient Egypt, therefore it was present at all its sub-periods, eg 26th Dynasty
{warning}
{section}
{column}
In 2 above we have asked the production sub-events to be directly connected to the object.
Then we'd navigate upward and the P9 link is never used:
!FR12_was_present_at_data1.png!
{column}
{column}
In fact the main production <GAA42731/production> is parasitic since it carries no data.
So you can dismiss it, simplifying the representation:

h4. Navigating the Part Hierarchy
h5. Representing Acquisition
An acquisition can be modeled as an event having all these classes:
- E8_Acquisition: thing changes ownership
- E10_Transfer_of_Custody: thing changes custody
- E80_Part_Removal: thing is removed from old collection
- E79_Part_Addition: thing is added to BM collection
The following entities are present at an acquisition:
- the thing itself: (E8, E10), E80, E79
- the seller: E8, E10
- the seller's collection: E80
- the buyer: E8, E10
- the buyer's collection: E79
h5. BUG
The loop P46i_forms_part_of causes a serious problem if E79_Part_Addition is used. Assume Thing1 and Thing2 are part of the BM_collection, THEN:
{noformat}
Thing2(E22_Man-Made_Object) -- P46i_forms_part_of -> BM_Collection (E78_Collection). # given
Thing1_Acquisition(E79_Part_Addition) -- P110_augmented -> BM_Collection. # given
BM_Collection -- P12i_was_present_at -> Thing1_Acquisition. # P110i is sub-property of P12
Thing2 -- FR12_was_present_at -> Thing1_Acquisition. # by the FR definition
{noformat}
This causes *all* BM objects to be present at all Acquisition events *of each other*, which is wrong:
- If Thing2 was added to BM after Thing1, it's causally impossible for Thing2 to be present at the acquisition of Thing1
- If Thing2 was added to BM before Thing1, you *could* say that while sitting in BM, it quietly observed the addition of Thing1, but that is silly and not useful.
This also causes quadratic growth of the repository, and seemingly exponential growth of loading times.
h5. How to Fix
Cannot be fixed easily using negation: "P46i_forms_part_of <thing> where <thing> is not E78_Collection":
- Class negation causes much higher inferencing complexity in OWL
- I'm sure there are other twisted cases, eg "each part of a building observed all modifications that added other parts to that building"
We had some discussions about following P46i:
- for some FRs it's appropriate to follow the other direction P46 ("contra-variant" not "co-variant" FRs)
- for some FRs it's appropriate to follow neither P46i, nor P46 (eg for Thing *about* Entity)
For this FR, we loop over P46_is_composed_of in order to account for:
- part made by: P46_is_composed_of/P108i_was_produced_by/P14_carried_out_by
- inscription made by: P128_carries/P94_has_created/P14_carried_out_by
h2. Thing-Concept
h3. Thing is made of Material- FR45_is_made_of
Thing (or part thereof) consists of material
!FR45_is_made_of-fixed.png!
Corrections:
- Original definition Includes P33_used_specific_technique/P68_foresees_use_of, but I think that is far-fetched: P33 should refer to an explicitly defined procedure, and if P68 then it stands to reason the material was actually P126_employed!
- I use the same beginning as [#Thing created by Actor- FR92i_created_by] to also catch repairs (P31i_was_modified_by).
(P94i_was_created_by is superfluous here, but doesn't hurt)
Implementation:

P94i_was_created_by may be useful here: an immaterial feature on the object (eg Inscription) may be made using a specific technique,
- (I think P32_used_general_technique is more useful than P33_used_specific_technique, see [#Thing is made of Material- FR45_is_made_of] above)

h3. Thing is/has Type- FR2_has_type
Thing has Type (or has shape, is of kind, is about subject, etc)
!FR2_has_type-fixed.png!
- FRThing.docx calls this "has type" but I think "is/has/about" matches the general usage "is Weapon", "has shape Vertical Rectangle", etc
Fixes:
- added P67 (E55_Type), since some types are attached using P67_refers_to (or P129_is_about),
eg these RKD extension properties: rso:P129_has_iconclass, rso:P129_has_keyword
- added P128_carries (E73_Information_Object) to move from physical to conceptual, eg
{code}<obj/2926> crm:P65_shows_visual_item [crm:P129_is_about rst-iconclass:_71P412]{code}
- added "P127_has_broader_term" to search by type hierarchy

{code}
Notes:
- Martin also adds here FR45_is_made_of. This would be easy to add with this clause:
{code}
x <rso:FR45_is_made_of> y => x <rso:FR2_has_type> y
{code}
but our search UI currently has a restriction that the many-to-many relation "FRs-thesauri" should split both FRs and thesauri into equivalence classes.
h3. Thing identified by Identifier- FR1_identified_by
Thing (or part thereof) has Identifier (exact-match string).
Extension defined by me:
!FR1_identified_by.png!
- FR1_identified_by := (FC70_Thing) FRT_46_106_148* / P1_is_identified_by / (P3_has_note | rdfs:label)
{code:title=Rules}
x <rdf:type> <rso:FC70_Thing>; x <crm:P1_is_identified_by> y; y <crm:P3_has_note> z => x <rso:FR1_identified_by> z
x <rso:FRT_46_106_148> y; y <crm:P1_is_identified_by> z; z <crm:P3_has_note> t => x <rso:FR1_identified_by> t
x <rdf:type> <rso:FC70_Thing>; x <crm:P1_is_identified_by> y; y <rdfs:label> z => x <rso:FR1_identified_by> z
x <rso:FRT_46_106_148> y; y <crm:P1_is_identified_by> z; z <rdfs:label> t => x <rso:FR1_identified_by> t
{code}
Notes:
- TODO: it may be better to stop at P1 so the identifier type can also be examined
- we add rdfs:label since that's what BM uses for identifier values (not P3_has_note)
{jira:RS-1408}
- FRX_label := P3 | rdfs:label
Using such intermediate relation is very stupid, since it will double the number of label triples & literals in the repo
h2. Thing-Image
In order to make access to images for display easier, and [FR Enhancements#Search by Image] faster, we implement two FRs according to the definitions in [Search Result Fields#Display Fields]
- rso:FR_main_representation: main image (denoted ?Image)
