SPARQLAS - Implementing SPARQL Queries with OWL Syntax

نویسنده

  • Mark Schneider
چکیده

Using SPARQL for writing queries on OWL-DL ontologies can be complicated due to its RDF triple semantics. Translating OWL expressions to this semantics is a non-trivial problem. We present SPARQLDL Abstract Syntax (SPARQLAS), a proper subset of SPARQL, to solve this issue by employing the OWL Functional-Style Syntax to compose queries. We illustrate how the translation is made possible by a modelto-model transformation and how a query can be connected to an UML model. Finally, we evaluate SPARQLAS against SPARQL and show the efforts of SPARQLAS for queries on OWL-DL ontologies.

Terp: Syntax for OWL-friendly SPARQL Queries

Web Ontology Language (OWL) [5] can be seen as an extension of Resource Description Framework (RDF). The primary exchange syntax for OWL is RDF/XML, and every OWL ontology can be represented as an RDF graph. But there is no standard query language specifically for OWL ontologies. The most commonly used Semantic Web query language is SPARQL [7], which is intended to be used for RDF. Roughly spea...

On the SPARQL Direct Semantics Entailment Regime for OWL 2 QL

OWL 2 QL is the profile of OWL 2 targeted to Ontology-Based Data Access (OBDA) scenarios, where large amount of data are to be accessed and thus query answering is required to be especially efficient in the size of such data, namely AC0 in data complexity. On the other hand, the syntax and the semantics of the SPARQL query language for OWL 2 is defined by means of the Direct Semantics Entailmen...

Towards a Mediator Based on OWL and SPARQL

We propose a framework that supports a federated environment based on a Mediator Architecture in the Semantic Web. The Mediator supports mappings between the OWL Ontology of the Mediator and the other ontologies in the federated sites. SPARQL queries submitted to the Mediator are decomposed and reformulated to SPARQL queries to the federated sites. The evaluated results return to the Mediator. ...

Schema-Agnostic Query Rewriting in SPARQL 1.1

SPARQL 1.1 supports the use of ontologies to enrich query results with logical entailments, and OWL 2 provides a dedicated fragment OWL QL for this purpose. Typical implementations use the OWL QL schema to rewrite a conjunctive query into an equivalent set of queries, to be answered against the non-schema part of the data. With the adoption of the recent SPARQL 1.1 standard, however, RDF databa...

Regular Paths in SparQL: Querying the NCI Thesaurus

OWL, the Web Ontology Language, provides syntax and semantics for representing knowledge for the semantic web. Many of the constructs of OWL have a basis in the field of description logics. While the formal underpinnings of description logics have lead to a highly computable language, it has come at a cognitive cost. OWL ontologies are often unintuitive to readers lacking a strong logic backgro...
