TopQuadrant © Copyright 2001-2006 TopQuadrant Inc., “Building Ontologies using TopBraid Composer”, slide 13 Re-using existing XML data
14
TopQuadrant © Copyright 2001-2006 TopQuadrant Inc., “Building Ontologies using TopBraid Composer”, slide 14 Exercise 2 Convert XML file of the US states into RDF http://www.mddl.org/ext/scheme/uspsStatePossession.xml http://www.mddl.org/ext/scheme/uspsStatePossession.xml Create a new OWL/RDF file, call it US-states.owl Create a class called ‘value’ Create two datatype properties: short and full Save and close, then open the file with the text editor Hint: to open the file with the text editor, right click on the file in the Navigator View and select ‘Open with …’ Click on the XML file above Once it is opened in the browser, right click and select View Source Copy and paste the XML into your RDF/OWL file Hint: Copy everything from the first tag to the last tag Paste right before the tag Save US-states.owl file, close it and re-open with TopBraid Composer Select value class and click on Instances view. You should see all the states as instances of the class value Rename the class to USPostalState Create a prefix for your namespace, call the prefix states
15
TopQuadrant © Copyright 2001-2006 TopQuadrant Inc., “Building Ontologies using TopBraid Composer”, slide 15 SPARQL SPARQL is for query-based access to RDF graphs. A specification of the RDF Data Access Working Group, SPARQL is currently a W3C Candidate Recommendation. SPARQL = Query Language + Protocol + XML Results Format
16
TopQuadrant © Copyright 2001-2006 TopQuadrant Inc., “Building Ontologies using TopBraid Composer”, slide 16 SPARQL Query PREFIX dc: SELECT ?title2 WHERE { ?doc dc:title "SPARQL at speed". ?doc dc:creator ?c. ?docOther dc:creator ?c. ?docOther dc:title ?title2 } On an abstracts/papers database: “Find other papers by the authors of a given paper. Adapted from: Andy Seaborne, “Publishing data on the Web (with SPARQL)”, Semantic and Adaptive Systems Dept., HP, 2006
17
TopQuadrant © Copyright 2001-2006 TopQuadrant Inc., “Building Ontologies using TopBraid Composer”, slide 17 Exercise 3 Create new OWL/RDF file, call it US-regions.owl Using owl:import statements merge with it US-states and geo-region models Create a SPARQL query to fetch all states with their full names Hint: Your query may look something like SELECT ?subject ?fullname WHERE { ?subject states:full ?fullname } Hint: import sparql.owl found in the TBC folder (one of the libraries you have downloaded from the web during the install process). To save your query as part of the model: select USPostalState class, drag and drop j.0:query annotation property on to the form, copy and paste your query into the resulting widget Create regions NorthEast, West, etc. Connect regions and states using isSubregionOf property Hint: Drag and drop into the form directly from the SPARQL results panel

TopQuadrant © Copyright 2001-2006 TopQuadrant Inc., “Building Ontologies using TopBraid Composer”, slide 20 Schema and Inference Schema is used to derive information that was not in the given data – in this case based on the range of the property rdf:type isSubregionOf rdf:type isSubregionOf rdfs:domain rdfs:range New York Region NorthEast
21
TopQuadrant © Copyright 2001-2006 TopQuadrant Inc., “Building Ontologies using TopBraid Composer”, slide 21 Exercise 4 Create SPARQL query to get all regions that consist of other regions Hint: It may look something like: SELECT ?region ?subregion ?subname WHERE { ?region rdf:type region:Region. ?region region:hasSubregion ?subregion. ?subregion states:full ?subname } Run inferences Hint: You can invoke inferences using Inference menu option. You can also specify the level of inferencing when you run the query using Preferences icon in the SPARQL view Re-run the query Hint: You can see all the inferences in the Inferences view. Additionally, when you look at any resource, information with the light blue-grey background is inferred

TopQuadrant © Copyright 2001-2006 TopQuadrant Inc., “Building Ontologies using TopBraid Composer”, slide 23 Exercise 5 Download and open ontology of France regions from http://rdf.insee.fr/geo/ http://rdf.insee.fr/geo/ Hint: When you save the owl file, you can save it directly into your workspace directory. Refresh the folder in the workspace to see the downloaded file. To refresh right click on the folder and select Refresh. Download RDF files for regions and departments Adjust namespaces for regions and departments file Open the files in the text editor and modify the URL in the xml:base statement The url should be the same as the one that is indicated by rdf:about in the rdf:Description statement – see example in the next slide Open regions file Hint: You will get a warning statement about adding import statement, click ‘yes’

TopQuadrant © Copyright 2001-2006 TopQuadrant Inc., “Building Ontologies using TopBraid Composer”, slide 27 Key take aways RDF makes it easy to merge data from different sources Often a single axiom is enough to make significant merges possible RDFS and OWL statements are defined in terms of inferences they entail It is not necessary to agree with (or even fully understand) an ontology created by another party to make use of it Smaller is better - modularity is key to Re-use and Manageability It is possible to bring in and query a new knowledge base without changing queries your application is already using
28
TopQuadrant © Copyright 2001-2006 TopQuadrant Inc., “Building Ontologies using TopBraid Composer”, slide 28 A new data source: Database of zip codes
29
TopQuadrant © Copyright 2001-2006 TopQuadrant Inc., “Building Ontologies using TopBraid Composer”, slide 29 Exercise 7 Create connection to Sesame database Hint: Select File -> New -> Other and then select OWL/RDFS Sesame Repository Connection in the dialog that pops up You will need to know connection strings and password for the Sesame repository. To use TopQuadrant’s Sesame server, specify the following: ServiceURL=http://204.15.1.11:8080/sesame RemoteUser= RemotePassword=opensesame RemoteRepositoryID=zipcodes BaseURI=http://www.owl-ontologies.com/zipCodes.owl Once connection is established, you will be able to browse the zip code data directly from the RDF (triple) store Sesame is a multi-user environment where multiple people could be viewing and modifying the content, but you will only have read access Hint: You are looking at the data converted from the relational database into RDF store. You can user Composer to perform the conversion Use the Geo view in Composer for mashups Hint: To have the Geography view show up, go to Window -> Show View -> Other, then select Geography and click OK Select any instances of the Zipcode class and have them show up on the map

TopQuadrant © Copyright 2001-2006 TopQuadrant Inc., “Building Ontologies using TopBraid Composer”, slide 34 RDFa – embedding RDF in HTML pages Web pages are a great source of data – who, what, and where is commonly shown. Old question: How can someone reading a page reverse engineer (“scrape”) structured data from HTML? New question: How can a page author embed structured information in a page, to make it easy to get out?
