Here's my thinking: The whole point of the semantic web is to get away from
relying on terms. Why would you intentionally want to become dependent upon
labels (terms)?
Label's are not identifiers; they are annotations. There is no uniqueness
guarantee. A concept can have many labels and many co
I agree with Chime points. I will add that the great missing feature or

uniqueness in literals is not part of the
I tend to believe that "Perfect is the Enemy of Good".
It seems that everyone agrees at some point you need semantic identifiers.
Look at the RDF, RDFS, and OWL standards. They don't use non-semantic
identifiers (alphanumeric/guids) for core Classes and Predicates. The

It is a fascinating architecture. What particularly drew me in is the
multiple different evidence spaces they had to use. And that they made at
least a token mention to the power of utilizing structured knowledge to
enhance statistical methods.

Well it seems like a utopian model, but at the same time in academics you
are judged on your papers and grants. So without some exclusivity it is
difficult for academics to cope.
Obviously with a study that couldn't be done without a great deal of cash,
collaborations are vital...but as much as
sary, but in order to engage a wider (and I don't count as a very
wide) clinical audience, we will need a better way of explaining and
presenting it. I don't know what that is, but I'm fairly sure its
necessary.

The real "killer" might be to show how rdf-ing SEER data gives you an

No publication as yet on bioGUID, but

It's probably quite important to define various relation classes for the aggregated properties we tend to relate to a person. I would imagine this comes under standard upper ontologies. It would necessarily need to include definitions of FOAF and vCard so that we could classify across current data
Donald's solution feels a little circular. The interpretation of
these relations still need a formal specification, which OWL would do
nicely for, but then OWL already defines similar constructs.
