When Pete answered, his phone turned the sound down by sending a message to all the other local devices that had a volume control. His sister, Lucy, was on the line from the doctor's office: "Mom needs to see a specialist and then has to have a series of physical therapy sessions. Biweekly or something. I'm going to have my agent set up the appointments." Pete immediately agreed to share the chauffeuring. At the doctor's office, Lucy instructed her Semantic Web agent through her handheld Web browser. The agent promptly retrieved information about Mom's prescribed treatment from the doctor's agent, looked up several lists of providers, and checked for the ones in-plan for Mom's insurance within a 20-mile radius of her home and with a rating of excellent or very good on trusted rating services. It then began trying to find a match between available appointment times (supplied by the agents of individual providers through their Web sites) and Pete's and Lucy's busy schedules. (The emphasized keywords indicate terms whose semantics, or meaning, were defined for the agent through the Semantic Web.) Tim Berners-Lee, James Hendler and Ora Lassila (2001). The Semantic Web.

14. 14 Berendt: Knowledge and the Web, 1st semester 2015/2016, http://http://people.cs.kuleuven.be/~bettina.berendt/teaching/ 14 The XML approach is to "wrap" each data item in start/end tags 14.8 meters 512 kilograms 70 knots 400 nautical miles medium-altitude, long-endurance unmanned aerial vehicle RQ-1.xml and define this data schema, e.g. in a DTD

16. 16 Berendt: Knowledge and the Web, 1st semester 2015/2016, http://http://people.cs.kuleuven.be/~bettina.berendt/teaching/ 16 Why use XML? n It is a universally accepted standard way of structuring data (syntax). n It is a W3C recommendation (W3C = World Wide Web Consortium) n The marketplace supports it with a lot of free/inexpensive tools. n The alternative to using XML is to define your own proprietary data syntax, and then build your own proprietary tools to support the proprietary syntax (Not a very appealing idea).

What does nesting mean? 2. What do syntactical variations mean? 3. What do linguistic variations mean? 4. How can we extend our knowledge?

21. 21 Berendt: Knowledge and the Web, 1st semester 2015/2016, http://http://people.cs.kuleuven.be/~bettina.berendt/teaching/ 21 1. What does nesting mean? Schema 1 allows for expressions like: Peter Parker...  name being an XML-element of Person means: the person HAS-A... Schema 2 allows for expressions like: Comic-book hero...  type being an XML-element of Person means: the person IS-A... Problems: a) we don‘t know what nesting means, b) even if we do know, we can‘t express this in a machine-readable way (at most build it into an application that uses these XML statements, but that would bury meaning in procedures!)

22. 22 Berendt: Knowledge and the Web, 1st semester 2015/2016, http://http://people.cs.kuleuven.be/~bettina.berendt/teaching/ 22 2. What do syntactical variations mean? Schema 1 allows for expressions like: Peter Parker 1932-04-12... Schema 2 allows for expressions like: Comic-book hero... Problems: a) what does it mean for some information to be an XML- element vs. an XML-attribute? b) even if we do know that they are the same, we can‘t express this in a machine-readable way, for example to combine the information from the two sources (same remark about applications as in 1.)

23. 23 Berendt: Knowledge and the Web, 1st semester 2015/2016, http://http://people.cs.kuleuven.be/~bettina.berendt/teaching/ 23 3. What do linguistic variations mean? Schema 1 allows for expressions like: Peter Parker... Schema 2 allows for expressions like: Peter Parker... Problems: a) we do not know whether elements from different data sources that differ by, e.g. natural, language, are the same or not b) even if we do know that they are the same, we can‘t express this in a machine-readable way, for example to combine the information from the two sources (same remark about applications as in 1.)

24. 24 Berendt: Knowledge and the Web, 1st semester 2015/2016, http://http://people.cs.kuleuven.be/~bettina.berendt/teaching/ 24 4. How can we extend our knowledge? Schema 1 allows for expressions like: Picture http://www.example.org/Pictures/myPic.png Peter Parker... Schema 2 allows for expressions like: http://www.example.org/Pictures/myPic.png CreativeCommons... Problems: a) we cannot refine our schema information by that provided by another source b) even if we can be sure about principal linkability (here: via the URL), we can‘t express this in a machine-readable way, for example to combine the information from the two sources (same remark about applications as in 1.)

31. 31 Berendt: Knowledge and the Web, 1st semester 2015/2016, http://http://people.cs.kuleuven.be/~bettina.berendt/teaching/ 31 Solution approach of the „higher levels“ of the Semantic Web 1. Break down information into atomic statements: subject-predicate-object 2. Define (in a formal-semantics way) what each component of each statement means a. Give it a URI (uniform resource identifier) to enable uniform meaning specification b. Define languages to say more about (specify) the meaning (by relating it to other units of meaning – cf. a dictionary in which each word is explained by other words) c. (exception: some components may be literals / strings – these are not defined further) 3. The languages mentioned in 2.b. each add more expressivity: 1. RDF: subject-predicate-object statements (in RDF terminology: a resource has a property with a certain value. 2. RDFS: simple ontology building blocks: class, subclass-of relation, use RDF‘s type to denote that (e.g.) an individual is a instance of a class (= make it possible to define a schema and its instances),... 3. OWL: more advanced ontology building blocks: a class (= concept) is disjoint with another one, is the same as another one; a property is functional, symmetric, the inverse of another one;...

32. 32 Berendt: Knowledge and the Web, 1st semester 2015/2016, http://http://people.cs.kuleuven.be/~bettina.berendt/teaching/ 32 Semantic Web vs. Database Advantages of using RDF/RDFS/OWL to define an Ontology: n Extensible: much easier to add new properties. Contrast with a database - adding a new column may break a lot of applications n Portable: much easier to move an OWL document than to move a database. Advantages of using a Database to define an Ontology: n Mature: the database technology has been around a long time and is very mature. n But … by now there is also solid support for RDF(S)/OWL

34. 34 Berendt: Knowledge and the Web, 1st semester 2015/2016, http://http://people.cs.kuleuven.be/~bettina.berendt/teaching/ 34 What is RDF ? What is the role of XML for RDF ? RDF is a data model l the model is domain-neutral, application-neutral l the model can be viewed as directed, labeled graphs or as an object-oriented model (object/attribute/value) RDF data model is an abstract, conceptual layer independent of XML l consequently, XML is a transfer syntax for RDF, not a component of RDF l RDF data often, but not always occur in XML form l Here, we will first concentrate on the conceptual triple form and only then see examples in XML
