The  CIDOC  CRM  model  •  The  CIDOC  Conceptual  Reference  Model    

–  A  collaboraAon  with  the  InternaAonal  Council  of  Museums  –  An  ontology  of  92classes  and  142  properAes  for  culture  and  more  –  With  the  capacity  to  explain  hundreds  of  (meta)data  formats  –  Accepted  by  ISO  TC46  in  September  2000  –  InternaAonal  standard  since  2006  -­‐  ISO  21127:2006  –  To  be  revised  2014  (minor  extensions)      

•  Serving  as:  –  Intellectual  guide  to  create  schemata,  formats,  profiles  –  A  language  for  analysis  of  exisAng  sources  for  integraAon/  

mediaAon  –  IdenAfy  elements  with  common  meaning  –  TransportaAon  format  for  data  integraAon  /  migraAon  /  Internet  

Page 7: Achille Felicetti - ARIADNE Semantic Integration of Archaeological Information

What  is  a  formal  ontology  made  of?  •  System  of  classes  and  relaAons  that  should  describe  some  domain  of  

discourse  –   It  entails  no  specific  encoding  

•   Any  ontological  specifica4on  should  contain  at  least:  

•  Scope:  a  definiAon  of  the  intended  field  of  discourse/reality  that  the  formal  ontology  should  cover  –  e.g.  Car  Manufacturing,  Cultural  Heritage,  Fashion    

•  Classes:  universals  meant  to  represent  some  set  of  en44es  in  the  world  of  discourse,  that  have  a  disAnct,  idenAfiable  behaviour  and  iden4ty  

•  Proper4es:    the  rela4ons  that  exist  between  classes  in  the  ontology.  The  relaAons  formally  define  the  possible  proposiAons  that  can  be  made  of  instances  of  classes  

7  

Page 8: Achille Felicetti - ARIADNE Semantic Integration of Archaeological Information

Reading  a  formal  ontology  •  Formal  Ontologies  are  arranged  

hierarchically.  

•  The  highest  classes  are  the  most  abstract  and  define,  with  their  properAes,  the  highest  levels  of  discourse  within  a  domain.  

•  Scan  for  classes  and  relaAons  that  seem  relevant  to  what  you  want  to  describe.  Are  they  adequate?  

•  If  you  adopt  a  formal  ontology,  then  the  world  you  want  to  describe  should  largely  be  expressible  under  its  high  level  terms  and  have  specific  enough  terms  to  support  minimally  ambiguous  discourse.

Page 9: Achille Felicetti - ARIADNE Semantic Integration of Archaeological Information

Anatomy  of  a  Class  •  The  Label:  arbitrary  but  idenAfying  

•  Subclass/Superclass:  Place  in  IsA  

•  The  Scope  Note:  gives  the  meaning,  the  intension.  First  thing  to  check!  

•  The  Examples:  helps  to  verify…    do  others  think/do  it  like  you  do  

•  The  Proper4es/Rela4ons:  more  verificaAon  of  appropriateness.    

•  How  does  it  relate  to  other  concepts?  Is  this  how  my  concept  behaves?

Page 10: Achille Felicetti - ARIADNE Semantic Integration of Archaeological Information

Anatomy  of  a  Property  

•  The  Label:  arbitrary  but  idenAfying  

•  The  Domain:  The  set  of  classes  from  which  the  property  can  originate  

•  The  Range:  the  set  of  classes  to  which  the  property  can  join  the  domain  class  

•  Superproperty/subproperty:  Place  in  IsA  Hierarchy  

•  The  Scope  Note:  gives  the  meaning,  the  intension.  First  thing  to  check!  

•  The  Examples:  helps  to  verify…    do  others  think/do  it  like  you  do

•  IdenAficaAon  of  real  world  items  by  real  world  names  •  ObservaAon  and  ClassificaAon  of  real  world  items  •  Part-­‐decomposiAon  and  structural  properAes  of  Conceptual  and  

Physical  Objects,  Periods,  Actors,  Places  and  Times  •  ParAcipaAon  of  persistent  items  in  temporal  enAAes.    

–  Creates  a  no4on  of  history:  “world-­‐lines”  mee4ng  in  space-­‐4me.  

•  LocaAon  of  periods  in  space-­‐Ame  and  physical  objects  in  space.    •  Influence  of  objects  on  acAviAes  and  products  and  vice-­‐versa.  •  Reference  of  informaAon  objects  to  any  real-­‐world  item.
