[9:36] RobertPowers: Michel, are you on the call? [9:36] MikeBennett: Is the Michel on the chat MichelDumontier? If so please can you change it to your full name and join us on the phone bridge if you're not already. Many thanks! [9:37] Michel: hi, just getting off a call [9:39] Michel morphed into MichelDumontier [9:38] MikeBennett: Great! [9:38] GaryBergCross: I sent JohnSowa an email to see if he is joining us.. [9:39] MatthewLange: Is the vnc server up? [9:40] MikeBennett: Yes the VNC server is up [9:40] MichelDumontier: have joined the call [9:46] GaryBergCross: No answer from the tele #s I have for JohnSowa...so still puzzled. [9:47] PeterYim: JohnSowa is already on the voice line [9:48] GaryBergCross: Ok Good .. didn't see him on chat. [9:48] PeterYim: we might want to (verbally) prompt him, as well as others who aren't already here, to join us in the chat-room [9:52] GaryBergCross: Welcome John.... [9:41] PeterYim: == MikeBennett starts the session on behalf of Session Co-chairs ... see slides under: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2014_03_06#nid486D [9:41] ... anonymous morphed into LesMorgan [9:43] ... anonymous morphed into BruceBray [9:43] ... anonymous morphed into RichardMcAllister [9:51] anonymous morphed into CoryCasanave [9:52] MatthewWest: What counts as "small set of semantic content" and what counts as "large set of semantic content" on Slide 6 of the introduction? [9:55] AndreaWesterinen: @MatthewWest [9:52] "Small" means a design pattern with a few classes and relationships. "Large" could be a complete domain or upper ontology or schema. [9:56] SimonSpero: @MatthewWest [9:52] : small == can be visualized on an A0 poster : large = (not small)? [9:52] GaryBergCross: Welcome John.... [9:56] PeterYim: == JohnSowa presenting ... [9:56] ... anonymous morphed into BobbinTeegarden [10:01] GaryBergCross: Lack of Semantic app software not well integrated with mainstream IT is a major problem as shown on slide 5. [10:03] AnneThessen: I completely agree with JohnSowa slide 6 ["We need better tools, interfaces, and methodologies ..."] [10:04] GaryBergCross: This is a topic for the Tool track to address. [10:03] MikeBennett: ... slide 8 [10:04] MikeBennett: ... slide 9 [10:04] MikeBennett: John please call out the slide numbers [10:05] PeterYim: @MikeBennett ... please try to prompt JohnSowa verbally [10:09] PeterYim: ... on slide#14 now [10:13] PeterYim: ... on slide#16 now [10:13] AmandaVizedom: Question for @JohnSowa (we are on slide 11, but q applies to this whole range of slides): In my experience, being familiar with the history of logic & these fundamentals is useful in making ontology design/architecture decisions, in recognizing the logical equivalence (or non-) of different representation approaches, and in recognizing certain ontology anti-patterns that correspond to classic logical errors. However, they are no where near enough to ground reusable ontology development. How do you think that understanding these logical representations and patterns is helpful to overcoming obstacles to reuse? [10:16] AlexShkotin: @AmandaVizedom, we should not repeat their errors;-) [10:19] GaryBergCross: @AmandaVizedom Great question for John. I hope we get to it in discussion. [10:14] PeterYim: ... on slide#17 now [10:18] ... anonymous morphed into PatrickOBrien [10:18] PeterYim: ... on slide#19 now [10:18] AliHashemi: ... (i believe it's slide 21) [10:19] PeterYim: ... on slide#22 now [10:20] AlexShkotin / MikeBennett: ... slide 24 [10:20] GaryBergCross: John is getting at problems of reusing some well know resources like WordNet. [10:21] PeterYim: ... on slide#28 now [10:21] GaryBergCross: [ ref. slide#29: "Enable subject-matter experts to review, update, and extend their knowledge bases with little or no assistance from IT specialists" ] Uh oh.. getting rid of the KE means unemployment for some of us... [10:22] CoryCasanave: Many (most?) domain experts have no notation, what is the notation of law enforcement? [10:22] SimonSpero: @CoryCasanave: UCR (Uniform Crime Reporting) [10:23] SimonSpero: @CoryCasanave: 10-codes [10:24] CoryCasanave: @Simon, they do have domain vocabularies - but most lack ways to express them other than text and spreadsheets [10:26] MikeBennett: @CoryCasanave [10:22] if you walk into any conference room there are whiteboard diagrams with boxes and lines. So presenting subject matter in edges and lines, with textual annotation, should be a relatively universal SME format. [10:30] CoryCasanave: @MikeBennett, some people respond to ad-hoc boxes and lines, some don't. Fewer respond to boxes and lines with any semantic consistency [10:31] MikeBennett: @CoryCasanave very true - in any group there are those whose primary modality is visual, and those whose is verbal. Need spreadsheets / tables / wiki pages for the latter. THe same content needs to be expressable in both. [10:36] JohnSowa: @MikeBennett, I strongly support spreadsheets. That's another example of a modality that requires almost zero learning to start using effectively. [10:38] MikeBennett: @JohnSowa I've seen some very complex SME spreadsheets - but it's their complexity not ours. I think there's potential in a spreadsheet structure that reflects classes, properties (with real-world names on the columns, not OWL terms) [10:41] JohnSowa: @MikeBennett (and continuation of note to @DennisWisnosky), then I would derive as much of the knowledge as possible from available data of any kind -- structured and unstructured. The primary role of the SME would be to answer questions to help the automated tools work better. [10:24] DennisWisnosky: Why documents feeding the NL Tools. Why not some SIRI? [10:30] JohnSowa: @DennisWisnosky, I mentioned documents because the bulk of the knowledge is in documents. But I would certainly recommend SIRI or similar voice-based tools as an option -- especially for hands-free use by the SMEs. [10:24] AmandaVizedom: About @JohnSowa's slide 20: I would (do, have done) argue that the quest for a complete ontology has been an significant hindrance to the development of reusable ontologies. Even if it were a complete ontology, to incorporate all of the contextual variation and dependencies observed in reality, it would be unusable. It would be at least as unusable as a life-sized map. Ontologies, like scientific models, need to be circumscribed in order to be usable. But that doesn't mean we can't have reuse. IMHO, it does mean we have to do better at making the boundaries and emphasis of our ontologies clear and detectable. [10:27] JohnSowa: @Amanda, short answer: what we can learn from history is the requirement that tools must be designed for the SMEs to use without additional training. We still need KEs, but not in the middle between the SME and the system. There is much more to say, but that's another topic. [10:30] ToddSchneider: @JohnSowa, in your assertion that 'systems have been inter-operating for ...' many years leaves out the process to get them to inter-operate. The ability to get information (and other) systems to inter-operate in a timely and cost effective manner is still a challenge. [10:34] JohnSowa: @ToddSchneider, I agree. Semantics has helped us develop better systems. But more people would use more and better semantics if the learning curve were less steep. [10:40] ToddSchneider: @JohnSowa, I agree. If engineers had more training in logic and ontological analysis would help in this regard. However, somethings are difficult to understand (e.g., Saharon Shelah's book on Classification Theory, Quantum Field Theory). Of course this puts the onus on us to help create tools that aid the general user to better apply the techniques of ontology when creating information. [10:35] DennisWisnosky: @JohnSowa - you don't discuss the bias of the SME's and the bias of the Knowledge person to bias the KB = ontology. I believe that just as in other domains - e.g. manufacturing the only way truth will will-out is to eliminate the human. [10:38] JohnSowa: Dennis, I didn't even have time to mention all my slides. If by "eliminating the human" you mean that as much as possible of the knowledge be derived from available resources (Big Data), [10:43] DennisWisnosky: @JohnSowa - Yes, just saw your last sting and I agree. In addition, first I am buying totally that a NL processor takes the place of the knowledge worker = the ontologist, maybe. Secondly, I am saying that over time we can build rules into the NL processor that based upon the natural laws that you mentioned, as well as the context, etc. throws away that which does not make sense. This may happen in real time, or analyzing what the data store as it is amassed. [10:46] AndreaWesterinen: @DennisWisnosky [10:43] NL processing really only works if it understands the language of the domain of the SME. This is not generic. At this point in time, getting the domain concepts right could be partially automated but definitely needs cleanup and iteration by SMEs. [10:47] JohnSowa: I am not advocating full NL understanding. But current tools can derive enough from documents (or speech) to formulate intelligent questions when they need help. [10:48] AndreaWesterinen: @JohnSowa [10:47] That has not been my experience - unless you have knowledge of the domain and its language. [10:48] JohnSowa: @AndreaWesterinen For examples of the way systems can learn by reading, see http://www.jfsowa.com/talks/goal7.pdf [10:45] JohnSowa: @ToddSchneider and @DennisWisnosky, I believe that highly trained experts already know the best way to talk about their field. They should not have to learn any conventions that we want them to use. [11:08] ToddSchneider: @JohnSowa, "highly trained experts already know the best way to talk about their field", but only within their field. If there's a need to communicate outside their field (i.e. inter-operate), then there's a problem. [11:17] JohnSowa: @ToddSchneider, I agree that many experts don't communicate effectively with people in other fields. But the problem for anybody, expert or not, to communicate effectively with computers is many orders of magnitude more difficult. [11:16] GaryBergCross: @JohnSowa would you have an issues with the value of formalizing small schemas the way Michel did for the relation between drug disease pathway and gene? [10:23] PeterYim: == MichelDumontier presenting ... [10:31] AmandaVizedom: @MichelDumontier, very glad to have presentation that starts from deep awareness of how much is out there (as in LOV) and moves through experiences with trying to reuse it. Thanks for contributing this. [10:50] MichelDumontier: @AmandaVizedom thanks for your comment :) [10:54] AmandaVizedom: @MichelDumontier, You're welcome. Many are confronting such tactical issues now, I think. Folks increasingly start with a plan to reuse, but find it nowhere near as simple as they expected. Gory details of how people manage reuse successfully are valuable! [10:42] AmandaVizedom: Something going unstated here wrt this discussion of tools for KE / ontology development and the question of reusable content / reuse of content. I'm not saying that they are unrelated, only that the conversation just above (multiple participants) seems to be taking as obvious what the connection is. Are any of you willing & able to spell that out? [10:48] GaryBergCross: @MichelDumontier Very nice perspective on a tactical approach to formalization for specific reuse. [10:51] MichelDumontier: @Gary Thanks! [10:49] PeterYim: @MichelDumontier - for what you are trying to achieve, does limitations of expressivity of the ontology language (OWL in your case) come into the picture [10:52] MichelDumontier: @PeterYim so far we have been quite happy with OWL for consistency checking (OWL-DL profile) and query answering (OWL-EL profile) [10:54] MichelDumontier: @PeterYim As we look towards more *accurate* representations of source knowledge, however, may require something else [10:55] PeterYim: @MichelDumontier, thanks ... what are the "something else" being considered now? [10:57] PeterYim: Thank you, @MichelDumontier [10:57] MichelDumontier: @PeterYim probabilistic reasoning (from aggregation and evidence type), non-monotonic reasoning (for inconsistent kbs) [10:55] GaryBergCross: @MichelDumontier Is the OntoFunc Tool something that might be easily used by interested parties for finding relations between object and ontology categories in areas other than BioMed? [10:57] MichelDumontier: @GaryBergCross yes. can be used with any terminology. https://code.google.com/p/ontofunc/ [10:56] RobertPowers: @MichelDumontier Could category theory/ologs be an answer to the problem of representation you show in slide 11? [11:01] MichelDumontier: @RobertPowers two factors - initial RDF was minimal (model 1) because triple stores didn't scale, and different datasets do not necessarily collect all the data that another similar type dataset does. we need a general model for entity-attribute-value pertaining to measurements to define standard representations. e.g. https://code.google.com/p/semanticscience/wiki/ODPMeasurements and http://www.jbiomedsem.com/content/5/1/14/abstract [11:04] RobertPowers: @MichelDumontier Yes, thx Michel! [11:03] SimonSpero: @MichelDumontier OASIS Quantities and Units of Measure Ontology Standard (QUOMOS) TC https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=quomos [11:06] AndreaWesterinen: @MichelDumontier There is also Quantities, Units, Dimensions and Data Types Ontologies (QUDT) ... http://www.qudt.org/ [11:22] MichelDumontier: @AndreaWesterinen @SimonSpero - indeed there are now many standards! but now what? [10:50] PeterYim: == KingsleyIdehen presenting ... [10:49] MatthewWest: ... *7 to unmute [10:49] KingsleyIdehen: ... Yes [10:50] MatthewWest: ... @Mike - we could hear you. [10:50] MikeBennett: ... Thanks @Matthew, I thought I had gone missing for a bit :) [10:49] KingsleyIdehen: All: http://kidehen.blogspot.com/2014/02/class-equivalence-based-reasoning.html -- example that includes live examples in regards to my session re. ontology driven integration of disparate data, across the burgeoning LInked Open Data (LOD) Cloud. A related presentation, in regards to understanding what data actually is: http://slidesha.re/1epEyZ1 Glossary of terms: http://bit.ly/1cchBvV . [10:57] PeterYim: ... on slide#7 now [11:00] GaryBergCross: @KingsleyIdehen Thanks for framing this practical issue of the dilemma for LOD folks finding a starting point. [11:02] GaryBergCross: @KingsleyIdehen Some of us start not with a formal ontology or LOD vocabulary but with a "conceptual model" of the domain under consideration. [11:04] MatthewWest: ... Apologies, I have to leave. [11:05] PeterYim: ... bye, MatthewWest [11:06] KingsleyIdehen: http://kidehen.blogspot.com/2014/02/class-equivalence-based-reasoning.html [11:07] TerryLongstreth: @KingsleyIdehen thesis reminds me of a Turing award lecture by Ken Iverson :"Notation as a tool of thought", where he argued that the result of a mental process is invfluenced by the medium and means used. CompSci also went through a period when the most important buzzword was 'design language' which was distinct from but mappable to an implementation method. [11:15] AndreaWesterinen: @TerryLongstreth [11:07] This also is covered in Gerald Weinberg's "Introduction to General Systems Thinking" - in his Laws of Difference and Indifference. [11:09] MikeBennett: @TerryLongstreth that sounds like the Saphir-Whorff hypothesis in spoken language. [11:20] TerryLongstreth: @MikeBennett - you're probably right, but I think what Iverson was really talking about was how he used APL as a logical notation beyond programming. [11:14] AmandaVizedom: @KingsleyIdehen - slides 12-13 are a great example of how some reasoning *is* a key part of making Linked Data effective. Granted, subsumption reasoning is the least disputed, but it gives a nice, salient example of how even small increments of reasoning and ontology/vocabulary mapping greatly amplify the power of linked data. [11:17] AndreaWesterinen: @KingsleyIdehen, slide 17 - separating the rules from the concepts, and allowing individual reuse of both, is one of the "summary" points from the Track A emails. Thanks! [11:18] KingsleyIdehen: @SimonSpero: no [11:19] KingsleyIdehen: @SimonSpero: it has to be :ClassX owl:equivalentClass :ClassY as the basis for such inference [11:18] PeterYim: @KingsleyIdehen, great talk ... btw, I think the url's on your (pdf version) slide deck are not active ... can you supply an updated version, so I can swap in, please ...

[11:23] CoryCasanave: Perhaps the speakers could address context and what statements are valid in what situations. Also, for RDF, how do we encode context. [11:23] KingsleyIdehen: Here are the links with the effect of inference rules: [11:23] KingsleyIdehen: http://lod.openlinksw.com/describe/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fschema.org%2FOrganization&inf=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.openlinksw.com%2Fschemas%2Frdfs&graph=http%3A%2F%2Fdata.reegle.info%2F&graph=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.openlinksw.com%2Fdata%2Fturtle%2Fontology_mappings%2Fschemas_mappings%2FSchemaOrgToOpenLink.ttl -- schemaorg:Organization (with instances of foaf:Organization) displayed in the query solution [11:24] KingsleyIdehen: http://lod.openlinksw.com/describe/?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.org%2Fgoodrelations%2Fv1%23Offering&inf=urn%3Aschema%3Aopenlink%3Agr%3Amapping%3Arules&graph=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.foodnetworkstore.com%2F&graph=http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.org%2Fgoodrelations%2Fv1.owl -- schemaorg:Offers description with instances of goodrelations:Offers (since inference rules are enabled) [11:26] KingsleyIdehen: [re. AmandaVizedom's verbal question] I don't mind answering this question [11:33] MikeBennett: The problem with Facebook "Like" is that it doesn't really mean "Like" (re Kingsley's description of FB Like in LOD) [11:34] SimonSpero: http://attempto.ifi.uzh.ch/acewiki/ [11:35] SimonSpero: [a data wiki type tool] [11:35] TerryLongstreth: I think Facebook's ubiquity has meant the new meaning of Like is now authoritative, particularly for non-English speakers [11:35] SimonSpero: [in ref to @KingsleyIdehen's points] [11:35] KingsleyIdehen: Tooling [11:33] MikeBennett: ... @Peter are we Ok to continue another 5 mins?
