  1. Creating Linked Data Juan F. Sequeda Semantic Technology Conference June 2011

  2. Linked Data is a set of best practices to publish and interlink data on the web

  3. Linked Data Principles • Use URIs as names for things • Use HTTP URIs so that people can look up (dereference) those names. • When someone looks up a URI, provide useful information. • Include links to other URIs so that they can discover more things.

  4. 1) Use URIs as names for things

  5. 1) Use URIs as names for things • Uniform Resource Identifiers identify real world objects and abstract concepts • Not only web documents and digital content • People, places, locations, my car • Know somebody, from somewhere

  6. 1) Use URIs as names for things http://juansequeda.com/foaf.rdf#me http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/card#i http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/knows

  7. 1) Use URIs as names for things • http://juansequeda.com/foaf.rdf#me • Identifies the person • http://juansequeda.com/foaf.rdf • Identifies an RDF document

  8. 2) Use HTTP URIs so that people can look up (dereference) those names.

  9. 2) Use HTTP URIs so that people can look up (dereference) those names. • HTTP protocol is the Web’s universal access mechanism • Linked Data only uses HTTP URIs • URI: unique name • HTTP URI: universal means of access to the URI • HTTP URIs should be dereferencable

  10. Dereference a URI?

  11. What’s with the redirection?

  12. RDFa <html> … <div xmlns:dc=“http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/”> <h2 property=“dc:title”>The trouble with Bob</h2> <h3 property=“dc:creator”>Alice</h3> …. </div> … </html>

  13. Minting HTTP URIs • If you own the domain name and run a web server at that location, mint URIs in this namespace • I own the domain mycompany.com • I run a webserverhttp://mycompany.com • I now can mint URIs in this namespace: • http://mycompany.com/person/Juan-Sequeda

  14. Create Cool URIs • If you don’t control a namespace, don’t misuse it • http://www.imdb.com/title • Avoid implementation details • http://foo.mycompany.com:8080/person.php?id=123&format=rdf • Use Natural Keys within URI • http://mycompany.com/person/Juan-Sequeda • http://mycompany.com/person/123

  15. Three different URIs • URI for the real world object (non-information resource) • http://dbpedia.org/resource/London • http://id.mycompany.com/person/Juan-Sequeda • http://mycompany.com/person/Juan-Sequeda • http://www.juansequeda.com/foaf.rdf#me • URI for the HTML document (information resource) that describes the real world object • http://dbpedia.org/page/London • http://pages.mycompany.com/person/Juan-Sequeda • http://mycompany.com/person/Juan-Sequeda.html • URI for the RDF document (information resource) that describes the real world object • http://dbpedia.org/data/London • http://data.mycompany.com/Juan-Sequeda • http://mycompany.com/person/Juan-Sequeda.rdf • http://www.juansequeda.com/foaf.rdf

  16. 3) Provide useful information

  17. 3) Provide useful information • How do we provide useful information in document form on the web?  HTML • How do we provide useful information in data form on the web  RDF • Different ways of serializing RDF • RDF/XML • RDFa • N3 • turtle

  18. RDF subject – predicate – object Coldplay is the artist of Viva la Vida Coldplay is the artist of Viva la Vida http://dbpedia.org/resource/Coldplay http://dbpedia.org/ontology/artist http://dbpedia.org/resource/Viva_la_Vida

  23. What to publish? • Literal Triples <http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/cc197bad-dc9c-440d-a5b5-d52ba2e14234#artist> <foaf:name> “Coldplay” • Outgoing Links <http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/cc197bad-dc9c-440d-a5b5-d52ba2e14234#artist> <owl:sameAs> <http://dbpedia.org/resource/Coldplay> • Incoming Link <http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/18690715-59fa-4e4d-bcf3-8025cf1c23e0#artist> <mo:member_of> <http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/cc197bad-dc9c-440d-a5b5-d52ba2e14234#artist>

  24. What to publish? • Description of the data set • Semantic Sitemaps • voiD (Vocabulary of Interlinked Datasets) • Provenance Metadata • Licenses Information

  25. Vocabularies (or Schemas or Ontologies) • Create your own using • Simple Knowledge Organization Systems (SKOS) • Taxonomy • RDF Vocabulary Description Language (RDF Schema) • Light weight vocabularies • Web Ontological Language (OWL) • Highly expressive and capable of inferencing

  26. Vocabularies (or Schemas or Ontologies) • Reuse vocabularies • Dublin Core: metadata attributes • Friend of a Friend (FOAF): persons and relationships • Semantically Interlinked Online Communities (SIOC): describing users, posts, blogs, etc • Description of a Project (DOAP) • Music Ontology • Programmes Ontology: TV and radio programs • Good Relations: describing products and services • Review Vocabulary • Basic Geo (WGS84) Vocabulary

  27. 4) Include links to other things

  28. 4) Include links to other things • Set external RDF links into other data sources on the Web • Subject of the triple is in the namespace of one data set • Object of the triple is a URI in the namespace of another data set • Connect siloed data islands • Enable discovery

  29. 4) Include links to other things • Relationship Links <http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/cc197bad-dc9c-440d-a5b5-d52ba2e14234#artist> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/based_near> <http://dbpedia.org/resource/London> • Identity Link <http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/cc197bad-dc9c-440d-a5b5-d52ba2e14234#artist> <http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#sameAs> <http://dbpedia.org/resource/Coldplay> • Vocabulary Links <http://purl.org/ontology/mo/image> <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#subPropertyOf> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/depiction>

  30. Which predicate for linking to choose? • Depends on your domain • Is it widely used? • owl:sameAs • foaf:knows • foaf:based_near • … • If you create your own, relate it to a widely used predicate

  31. How to create the links? • Manually • Works for small and static data sets • I want to find another URI that identifies the same real object that I have • Sindice and Falcons provide index of URIs by keyword • (Semi) Automatic • Record Linkage/Identity Resolution/Co-reference • Silk: http://www4.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/bizer/silk/ • LIMES: http://aksw.org/Projects/limes
