Dear All,

I am sorry, of course this needs explanations.

The Allen relations have turned out to be problematic in practice,
a) because OR combination are needed to relax the relations to those as we typically find from historical or archaeological evidence and conditions of incomplete knowledge, b) therefore we could not declare temporal constraints implied by semantic relations as superproperties. c) they are based on exact temporal boundaries, that exist only in contracts or administration acts.

Therefore we have already replaced them with a new set of primitives:

P173 - P176, P182 - P185.

They are compatible with evidence-based temporal constraints, and use a sound logic to cover fuzzy boundaries.

They are extensively discussed and explained in section : "Temporal Relation Primitives based on fuzzy boundaries"
in the last draft version 6.2.7 of the CRM.

At most two of these in AND combination (two superproperties) create any Allen relation.

Therefore it makes no sense to have two sets of competing primitives in the CRMBase, and we have already a lot of topological relations in CRMBase.

The deprecation statements ("use...") should contain the replacement statements.

Typical applications of Allen relations are the "epistemic" partitioning of periods in classical archaeology in 3 phases. Therefore we had decided (missing in the minutes) that these should appear in CRMarcheo as subproperties of the new primitives.

Please vote only, if you have read the text "Temporal Relation Primitives based on fuzzy boundaries" and the definitions of the new properties.

Kind regards,

Martin

Dear Martin and Christian-Emil,

1. is there any replacement foreseen for these quite useful properties in CRMbase ?

2. for the sake of clear documentation and legacy the vote proposal should be associated with the list and links to the correspondent issues, shouldn't it ?

3. I'm quite in favour of this vision of a core (CRMbase) and extensions (the family) but shouldn't we start working on a clear formalization of this integration (cf. e.g. the TEI) – or is this already done and I just don't know where to find it ?

4. One aspect of this task is to have a consistent URI definitions and dereferencing for CRMbase and family and their different versions.


I think point 1 and 2 should be clarified to the voters before we vote. Just avoir B..x.. situations.


All the best

Francesco

Dear All,

If you agree that

"the following Allen's temporal relations should be deprecated in the CRMbase and reappear in CRMarcheo:

P114 is equal in time to
P115 finishes (is finished by)
P116 starts (is started by)
P117 occurs during (includes)
P118 overlaps in time with (is overlapped in time by)
P119 meets in time with (is met in time by)
P120 occurs before (occurs after)"
PLEASE VOTE "YES"
otherwise "NO"
Best,
Martin

Dear all,
In the October 2019 meeting in Iraklio, we did a general cleanup of the CRM-document based on Martin's and my general review. It was a general understanding that the  SIG had decided that the following temporal relations should be deprecated in the CRMbase and reappear in CRMarcheo:
P114 is equal in time to
P115 finishes (is finished by)
P116 starts (is started by)
P117 occurs during (includes)
P118 overlaps in time with (is overlapped in time by)
P119 meets in time with (is met in time by)
P120 occurs before (occurs after)

However, I cannot find any traces of such a decision neither in the amendment part, in the minutes the previous two years nor in the list of issues.

I suggest that this decision could be done by email vote.

Best,
Christian-Emil
