Hi all,
we created an OWL schema called NLP Interchange Format(NIF), which
leverages Apache Stanbols FISE ontology.
Recent documentation is here:
http://svn.aksw.org/papers/2013/ISWC_NIF/public.pdf
Personally, I think the general structure (using URN for each
annotation) is quite good, but I am a little bit unhappy with some facts:
1. URL persistence: when will the FISE ontology move from IKS to the
Apache Stanbol namespace. In my opinion, sooner is better. The longer it
is out there, the more side effects it will cause:
http://xkcd.com/1172/
2. Some issues need discussions and some streamlining. I would be happy
to be of assistance and would offer to hold some Ontology telcos to get
it straight.
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/stanbol/trunk/enhancer/generic/servicesapi/src/main/resources/fise.owl
e.g.
- start and end have xsd:int limiting it to a 4GB text file
- extracted-from might not need to be functional. Also there might be a
relation to prov:wasDerivedFrom
These issues all need discussion however.
Any ideas on how to proceed?
All the best,
Sebastian
