Taking SPARQL 1.1 Extensions into Account in the SWIP System
نویسندگان
چکیده
The SWIP system aims at hiding the complexity of expressing a query in a graph query language such as SPARQL. We propose a mechanism by which a query expressed in natural language is translated into a SPARQL query. Our system analyses the sentence in order to exhibit concepts, instances and relations. Then it generates a query in an internal format called the pivot language. Finally, it selects pre-written query patterns and instantiates them with regard to the keywords of the initial query. These queries are presented by means of explicative natural language sentences among which the user can select the query he/she is actually interested in. We are currently focusing on new kinds of queries which are handled by the new version of our system, which is now based on the 1.1 version of SPARQL.

Demo: Swip, a Semantic Web Interface using Patterns
Our purpose is to provide end-users with a means to query ontology based knowledge bases using natural language queries and thus hide the complexity of formulating a query expressed in a graph query language such as SPARQL. The main originality of our approach lies in the use of query patterns. Our contribution is materialized in a system named SWIP, standing for Semantic Web Interface Using Pa...
متن کاملFederation and Navigation in SPARQL 1.1
SPARQL is now widely used as the standard query language for RDF. Since the release of its first version in 2008, the W3C group in charge of the standard has been working on extensions of the language to be included in the new version, SPARQL 1.1. These extensions include several interesting and very useful features for querying RDF. In this paper, we survey two key features of SPARQL 1.1: Fede...

We extend the Semantic Web query language SPARQL by defining the semantics of SPARQL queries under the entailment regimes of RDF, RDFS, and OWL. The proposed extensions are part of the SPARQL 1.1 Entailment Regimes working draft which is currently being developed as part of the W3C standardization process of SPARQL 1.1. We review the conditions that SPARQL imposes on such extensions, discuss th...

Our purpose is to provide end users with a mean to query graph-based knowledge bases using natural language queries and thus hide the complexity of formulating a query expressed in a graph query language such as SPARQL. The main originality of our approach lies in the use of generic query patterns which are presented in this article and whose exploitation is justified by the literature. We also...
متن کاملSPARQL Aggregate Queries Made Easy with Diagrammatic Query Language ViziQuer
We present a novel way to draw SPARQL aggregate queries via diagrammatic query language – ViziQuer. Since the introduction of SPARQL different graphical languages have been proposed to make SPARQL more userfriendly. In SPARQL 1.1 aggregate queries were introduced that are key to meaningful query formulation. However, diagrammatic query languages lacked this important end-user feature to make th...
