RO-CORE and RO-EXTENDED CORE #252

Open phismith opened 6 years ago

phismith commented 6 years ago

In the RO discussion at the ICBO meeting we discussed the idea of extending RO-CORE by adding a collection of further general relations -- such as input, output, about -- which should be recommended for use by all RO users, but which are not part of RO Core since they are not part of the scope of BFO.

In this connection it was pointed out that the Common Core Ontologies (CCO) -- see here -- have already created such a set of general-purpose relations, which are available here

They are divided into 5 groups, first is the CCO equivalent of our RO Core, followed by:

Agent Ontology Geospatial Ontology Information Entity Ontology Time Ontology Extended Relation Ontology (mainly for relations pointing to entities in the future)

People are invited to examine these relations and identify those which they think will be of value for OBO purposes. BS

Here are ones that I noticed so far. Am reaching out to others to collect more. cco:has_familial_relationship_to cco:prescribes Designates (IAO) Mentions (IAO) Is about (IAO) cco:has_ending_instant cco:has_starting_instant cco:occurs at

The last three are now part of BFO:

*2.1 *first instant of

Definition: *temporal instant t *first instant of temporal region t´ =Def. t precedes all temporal parts of t' other than t [210-ISO]

Domain*: *temporal instant

Range*: *temporal region

Example: an hour starting at midnight yesterday has first instant midnight yesterday.

*2.2 *has first instant

Definition: t has first instant t' =Def. t' has first instant t [214-ISO]

Domain*: *temporal region

Range*: *temporal instant

Example: the first hour of a year has first instant midnight December 31.

*2.3 *last instant of

Definition: *temporal instant t *last instant of temporal region t´ =Def. all temporal parts of t' other than t precede t [211-ISO]

Domain*: *temporal instant

Range*: *temporal region

Example: last midnight is the last instant of yesterday

*2.4 *has last instant

Definition: t has last instant t´ =Def. t´ *last instant of *t [215-ISO]

Domain*: *temporal region

Range*: *temporal instant

          Example: the last hour of a year has last instant midnight

December 31.

These are also now part of BFO:

*2.1 *occurs in

Definition: *b *occurs in c =Def. b is a process or a process boundary and c is a material entity or immaterial entity

& there exists a spatiotemporal region r and b *occupies spatiotemporal region *r

& for all t, if b exists at t then c exists at t

& there exist *spatial *regions s and s' where

b spatially projects onto s *at* t

& c occupies spatial region s' at t

& s is a *continuant part of *s' at t [143-ISO]

Domain: process or process boundary

Range: material entity or immaterial entity but not spatial region

Example: a process of digestion occurs in the interior of an organism, a process of loading artillery rounds into a tank cannon occurs in the interior of the tank

*2.2 *environs

Definition: *b environs c =Def. c occurs in *b [211-ISO]

            Domain: *material entity *or *immaterial entity *but

not spatial region

Range: process or process boundary

Example: mouth environs process of mastication, city environs traffic

See also #254

ramonawalls commented 5 years ago

See also #258. If we choose to have all (or most) relations housed in RO, then it will become even more important to have modules of RO that can be imported by those working in particularly domains.

Is this still needed?

nlharris commented 1 year ago

There's been no activity here since 2018 -- can we close this issue?
