  2. Contents • Why do we need the semantic web ? • What is the semantic web? • XML • RDF • Ontology • DAML+OIL • Applications • Other issues

  3. Why is the Semantic Web needed? • WWW is increasing very seriously. • There are some troubles in web search. • It is difficult to deal with many HTML documents intelligently. • We can’t extend, integrate, share information easily. • So, we need something else.

  4. What can we do in Semantic Web? • Make the machine understand data in existing web • Very correct search in web • Inferences(New Information) • Intelligent software agent • Easy extension, sharing, integration of information

  5. What is the Semantic Web? • "The Semantic Web is an extension of the current web in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation." -- Tim Berners-Lee, James Hendler, Ora Lassila, The Semantic Web, Scientific American, May 2001

  6. Semantic Web’s Layered Structure • Data: • XML • Resource • RDF, RDFS • Knowledge • Ontology • Inference • AI • Agent

  7. What is the Semantic Web? • Web for machine(not human) • Intelligent Web • An extension of current web • A network of knowledge(not information) • decentralized • Focus on the meaning(semantics)

  8. XML • XML : Document format for computer to read easily • Markup language • Contrast to HTML, user make his/her own tag in XML and XML does not focus how to show the document, but what to mean • Provide possibility of the infinite expression • Tree structure

  9. XML Example show <show type="Movie"> <title>Fugitive, The</title> <year>1993</year> <aka>Auf der Flucht</aka> <aka>Fuggitivo, Il</aka> <review> <nyt> The standard Hollywood summer movie strikes back. </nyt> </review> <box_office>183,752,965</box_office> <video_sales>72,450,220</video_sales> </show> title review ······ Fugitive, The nyt The standard Hollywood ….

  10. RDF(Resource Description Framework) Concepts • An infrastructure that enables the encoding, exchange and reuse of structured metadata • An application of XML • Impose structural constraints to provide unambiguous methods of expressing semantics • Means for publishing both human-readable and machine-processable vocabularies

  11. The Design Goals of RDF • A simple data model • Formal semantics and inference • URI-based vocabulary • XML-based syntax • Support use of XML schema data types

  12. Property Subject Object The RDF Data Model • Basic type • Resources : Any object that is uniquely identifiable by an URI(Uniform Resource Identifier) • Properties : a specific attribute used to describe a resource • Statement • Subject • Predicate • Object

  13. The RDF Data Model Example1 • Statement : • http://www.example.org/index.html has a creation-date whose value is August 16, 1999 . • (Does machine know that the creation-date of above homepage is August 16, 1999?) • RDF Statement • A subject • http://www.example.org/index.html • A predicate(property) • http://www.example.org/terms/creation-date • An object • August 16, 1999

  14. The RDF Data Model Example1 http://www.example.org/index.html http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/creation-date August 16, 1999

  15. The RDF Data Model Example1 RDF/XML : <?xml version="1.0"?> <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:exterms="http://www.example.org/terms/"> <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://www.example.org/index.html"> <exterms:creation-date>August 16, 1999</exterms:creation-date> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF>

  16. The RDF Data ModelExample2 • Additional statements • http://www.example.org/index.html has a creator whose value is John Smith. • http://www.example.org/index.html has a language whose value is English.

  17. The RDF Data ModelExample2 http://www.example.org/index.html http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/creator http://www.example.org/terms/creation-date http://www.example.org/staffid/85740 August 16, 1999 http://www.example.org/terms/language English

  18. The RDF Data ModelExample2 <?xml version="1.0"?> <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" xmlns:exterms="http://www.example.org/terms/"> <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://www.example.org/index.html"> <exterms:creation-date>August 16, 1999</exterms:creation-date> <exterms:language>English</exterms:language> <dc:creator rdf:resource="http://www.example.org/staffid/85740"/> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF>

  19. RDF Vocabulary Description Language : RDF Schema • An extension of RDF • Used to declare vocabularies • Provides the mechanisms needed to specify classes and properties • Provides a type system for RDF • Not provide a specific vocabulary of application-oriented classes

  20. classes rdfs:Class rdfs:Datatype rdfs:Container rdfs:Literal ... properties rdfs:subClassOf rdfs:subPropertyOf rdfs:domain rdfs:range rdfs:comment rdfs:member rdfs:seeAlso ... RDF Schema Summary

  21. RDFS example1 MiniVan Truck subClassOf subClassOf subClassOf PassengerVehicle Van subClassOf subClassOf MotorVehicle

  22. RDFS example1 The Vehicle Class Hierachy in RDF/XML <?xml version="1.0"?> <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:rdfs="http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#"> <rdf:Description rdf:ID="MotorVehicle"> <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#Class"/> </rdf:Description> <rdf:Description rdf:ID="PassengerVehicle"> <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#Class"/> <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#MotorVehicle"/> </rdf:Description>

  23. RDFS example1 <rdf:Description rdf:ID="Truck"> <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#Class"/> <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#MotorVehicle"/> </rdf:Description> <rdf:Description rdf:ID="Van"> <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#Class"/> <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#MotorVehicle"/> </rdf:Description> <rdf:Description rdf:ID="MiniVan"> <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#Class"/> <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#Van"/> <rdfs:subClassOf rdf:resource="#PassengerVehicle"/> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF>

  24. RDFS example1 An instance of MotorVehicle <?xml version="1.0"?> <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#“xmlns:ex="http://example.org/schemas/vehicles"> <rdf:Description rdf:ID="companyCar"> <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://example.org/schemas/vehicles#MotorVehicle"/> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF>

  25. Knowledge Representation • There exist same words having different meanings or different words having same meanings. • Computer can’t understand natural languages. • We need the special method for knowledge representation.

  26. Ontology • Philosophy • A theory about the nature of existence • A systematic account of existence • A method for describing entities and relationships among entities • An explicit specification of a conceptualization • Means of describing semantics • A heart of the Semantic Web • The most typical kind of ontology • A taxonomy and a set of inference rules

  27. Representation Language for Ontology • Based on First Order logic • Ontololingua • Loom • Frame-Logic • Based on XML(because of standardization) • SHOE(Simple HTML Ontology Extensions) • Resource Description Framework Schema Language(RDFS) • DAML(DARPA Agent Markup Language ) • OIL(Ontology Inference Layer) • Ontology Web Language(OWL)

  28. Why develop an ontology? • To share common understanding of the structure of information among people or software agents • To enable reuse of domain knowledge • To analyze domain knowledge

  29. DAML+OIL • Web Ontology Language • DAML(DARPA Agent Markup Language) + OIL(Ontology Inference Layer) • DAML+OIL => OWL • DAML or OIL is extension of RDF Schema

  30. DAML+OIL Example <daml:Class rdf:about="#Person"> <rdfs:comment>every person is a man or a woman</rdfs:comment> <daml:disjointUnionOf rdf:parseType="daml:collection"> <daml:Class rdf:about="#Man"/> <daml:Class rdf:about="#Woman"/> </daml:disjointUnionOf> </daml:Class> Elemens: intersectionOf unionOf minCardinalityQ maxCardinalityQ ...
