Re: [Dbpedia-discussion] United Nations FAO geo-political ontology dbpedia (was: how to register a RDF into DBPedia)

2010-08-11 Thread Gunnar Aastrand Grimnes
Hi Soonho,

What do you mean by register?

I see 3 options:

1. Link the countries/concepts in this ontology to their dbpedia 
equivalents.

2. Add this data to the dbpedia data, and have it published on 
http://dbpedia.org - I guess this is not trivially possible. DBPedia is 
mainly from wikipedia, but including a few other sources.

3. Add this data to your own copy of dbpedia to query them together, 
this depends on your database :)

I actually had a look at the FAO ontology a while back, and you already 
link to dbpedia:

I.e. countries have properties like:
codeDBPediaID 
rdf:datatype=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string;Turks_and_Caicos_Islands/codeDBPediaID

This means that for option 1, you have already done the hard conceptual 
work (i.e. figuring out what countries match). However, you have 
published it in your own crazy way that noone else understands :)

The link should be a resource (i.e. URI) not a literal (i.e. string).
It could for instance be:

owl:sameAs 
rdf:resource=http://dbpedia.org/resource/Turks_and_Caicos_Islands; /

For option 2 - it may well be worth exploring adding the FAO country 
list somehow - it is quite an authorative source as to what constitutes 
a country (re: paul houle most justified complaint that dbpedia lists 
3000 countries)


Cheers,

- Gunnar



Do you mean link these

 Dear All;

 How are you?
 I am a kind of beginner for DBPedia. I am wondering a way to register a RDF
 (geopolitical ontology which contains country and region information) into
 DBPedia.
 I have the URL for it. It is http://aims.fao.org/aos/geopolitical.owl This is
 an OWL format, but we can change into RDF. Is there any good reference or
 site for describing a way to register?

 Thanks for your answer in advance. : )

 Best Regards,

[Dbpedia-discussion] Broken subject URIs for Yago- or DbPedia triples

2010-05-11 Thread Gunnar Aastrand Grimnes
I already posted this in a reply to another thread, but I actually don't 
think it's really the same problem as that one.

Compare:

http://dbpedia.org/page/The_Good_Shepherd_%28film%29
and
http://dbpedia.org/page/The_Good_Shepherd_(film)

The one without encoding has the yago:blah triples, the other the normal 
dbpedia stuff.

This affects all URIs with ( ) in them, (perhaps also with : - see other 
thread)

Surely this is broken? :)

Cheers,

- Gunnar

Re: [Dbpedia-discussion] 303 redirects oddity for URIs containing :

This also affects URLs with ( ), and there also seems to be a bug in the 
actual triples.

Compare:

http://dbpedia.org/page/The_Good_Shepherd_%28film%29
and
http://dbpedia.org/page/The_Good_Shepherd_(film)

 As far as i remember colon is not valid in URI local part, right?

 seems not to disallow colons in URI paths for HTTP at least:

 path  = path-abempty; begins with / or is empty
 ...
 path-abempty  = *( / segment )
 ...
 segment   = *pchar
 ...
 pchar = unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims / : / @

 I'm no expert on this matter though. DBpedia *does* use colons in URIs
 anyways...

 I did some quick testing with Firefox; it looks like there's no
 URLDecoding/URLEncoding going on when following Location: headers in 303
 redirects there, so Firefox behaves just like Java does.

 Also interesting:
 $ curl -v http://dbpedia.org/resource/X-Men:_Evolution
 (just normal HTML!)
   HTTP/1.1 303 See Other
   Location: http://dbpedia.org/page/X-Men:_Evolution

 No escaping going on here when doing the normal HTML request. So I guess
 this is a bug in Virtuoso when requesting application/rdf+xml (and a
 somewhat strange bug in curl perhaps).

 Hi!

 Apparently there's something odd with the 303 redirects for resources
 with : in their title. Basically, that seems to work from for example
 curl, but it fails from Java. I'm not sure what component is buggy there.

 Example:

 $ curl -v -H Accept: application/rdf+xml
 http://dbpedia.org/resource/X-Men:_Evolution
 ...
   HTTP/1.1 303 See Other
   Content-Location: /data/X-Men%3A_Evolution.xml

 $ curl -H Accept: application/rdf+xml
 http://dbpedia.org/data/X-Men:_Evolution
 ...is fine.

 $ curl -H Accept: application/rdf+xml
 http://dbpedia.org/data/X-Men%3A_Evolution
 ...isn't - that strangely returns some foaf triples though (seems these
 are returned for whatever data/ URI you request).

 Java seems to get redirected to the latter (broken) URI:

 url = http://dbpedia.org/resource/X-Men:_Evolution;;
 URL urlU = new URL(url);
 HttpURLConnection uc = (HttpURLConnection) urlU.openConnection();
 uc.setInstanceFollowRedirects(true);
 uc.setRequestProperty(Accept, application/rdf+xml);
 uc.connect();
 InputStream is = uc.getInputStream();
 int read;
 while ((read = is.read()) != -1) { System.out.write(read); }
 ...outputs the triples the last (broken) curl command also fetches.

 Bug in Java? Bug in Virtuoso?

 I found a related discussion at [1] but that didn't cover the : case.

 Malte

[Dbpedia-discussion] CFP: Talis sponsored Semantic Sc ripting Challenge at SFSW09 - Win 250€, deadline 15th of May

2009-04-07 Thread Gunnar Aastrand Grimnes

(Apologies if you receive this more than once
 and this is the last time I promise! )

Talis has kindly agreed to sponsor this year's Semantic Web Scripting
Challenge with a 250€ cash prize -- To celebrate we have also moved the
deadline one month forward, now to 15th of May!

http://www.semanticscripting.org/SFSW2009/challenge.htm


The Semantic Web Scripting Challenge is a part of the 5h Semantic Web
Scripting Workshop (SFSW09) at ESWC2009. It awards a prize to the most
innovative small scripting application or mashup. (Prize details will be
published shortly!) It is an annual event, last year's prize of 250€ was
won by Benjamin Nowack for SPARQLBot - the Semantic Web Commandline.

The application must be implemented using a scripting language and
Semantic Web technologies. It should access, visualize or combine
information from more than one source in novel or unforeseen ways. For
the purpose of the Challenge we define a small application as being
less than 1000 lines of code (excluding external libraries), and
focusing on one specific problem or application.

The challenge is open to anyone interested in developing applications,
services, or infrastructure for the Semantic Web, using Scripting
Languages. This might include students, developers, researchers, and
people from industry. Individual or group submissions are both acceptable.

Criteria:
-

Entries will be assessed according to the extent to which they:

* Demonstrate innovation through the use of Scripting Languages
* Highlight the technical capabilities of a Semantic Web
* Bring benefits to potential users

All three criteria will be given equal importance in selecting the
winning entry. In the event of a tie, the entry deemed to bring greatest
benefits to potential users will be awarded the prize.

Reviews and Judging:


Submissions to the Scripting Challenge will be reviewed by members of
the Programme Committee of the 5th Workshop on Scripting for the
Semantic Web. A final decision will be made by the Organising Committee
of the workshop, based on the reviews by Programme Committee members.

Submissions:


Submissions should consist of a 2 page description (in Springer LNCS
format) of the application, ideally accompanied by the source code and a
link to an online demo. Descriptions and accommpanying materials should
be submitted electronically via the workshop management system by May
15th, 2009. Descriptions of the submissions will be included in the
workshop proceedings. Entries to the Scripting Challenge may be
presented at the workshop by their authors, however authors of Scripting
Challenge submissions are not required to attend the workshop
personally. Submissions to the Scripting Challenge may include work that
has previously been published elsewhere. However in this case we would
expect entries to demonstrate novelty through new features, or
deployments of the application with new data sets.

Scripting Challenge Submissions are submitted by email to:

 gunnar.grimnes (AT) DFKI.de

Please include SFSW09 Scripting Challenge in the subject.

In the event of any queries regarding the Scripting Challenge, please see:

http://www.semanticscripting.org/SFSW2009/challenge.htm

or contact Gunnar Aastrand Grimnes.
