An Approach for Automatically Generating R2RML-Based Direct Mapping from Relational Databases
نویسندگان
چکیده
For integrating relational databases (RDBs) into semantic web applications, the W3C RDB2RDF Working Group recommended two approaches, Direct Mapping (DM) and R2RML. The DM provides a set of mapping rules according to RDB schema, while the R2RML allows users to manually define mappings according to existing target ontology. The major problem to use R2RML is the effort for creating R2RML mapping documents manually. This may lead to appearance of many mistakes in the R2RML documents and requires domain experts. In this paper, we propose and implement an approach to generate an R2RMLmapping documents automatically from RDB schema. The R2RML mapping reflects the behavior of the DM specification and allows any R2RML parser to generate a set of RDF triples from relational data. The input of generating approach is DBsInfo class that automatically generated from relational schema. An experimental prototype is developed and shows the effectiveness of our approach algorithms.

Ultrawrap Mapper: A Semi-Automatic Relational Database to RDF (RDB2RDF) Mapping Tool
In this demo, we will show the operation of Ultrawrap Mapper, a semi-automatic software for creating mappings from Relational Databases to RDF in the R2RML language. In 2012, the W3C ratified two related standards for mapping relational database contents to RDF: the Direct Mapping [1] and R2RML [2]. The Direct Mapping is a default mapping of relational data to RDF. The organization and content ...
متن کاملOn the Semantics of R2RML and its Relationship with the Direct Mapping
The W3C Relational Database to RDF (RDB2RDF) standards are positioned to bridge the gap between Relational Databases and the Semantic Web. The standards consist of two interrelated and complementary specifications: Direct Mapping of Relational Data to RDF and R2RML: RDB to RDF Mapping Language. In this paper we present initial results on the formal study of the R2RML mapping language by definin...
متن کاملRelational Database to RDF Mapping Patterns
In order to integrate relational databases into Semantic Web applications, relational databases need to be mapped to RDF. The W3C RDB2RDF Working Group is in the process of ratifying two standards to map relational databases to RDF: Direct Mapping and R2RML mapping language. Through our experience as implementors of two RDB2RDF systems: Ultrawrap and Morph, and as authors of R2RML mappings, we ...
متن کاملR2RML by Assertion: A Semi-automatic Tool for Generating Customised R2RML Mappings
In this paper, we demonstrate the RBA (R2RML By Assertion) tool which automatically generates customized R2RML mappings based on a set of semantic mappings that model the relationship between the relational database schema and a target ontology in RDF. The semantic mappings are specified by a set of correspondence assertions, which are simple to understand.
متن کاملBootOX: Bootstrapping OWL 2 Ontologies and R2RML Mappings from Relational Databases
In this demo paper we present BOOTOX, a system facilitating ontology and mapping development by their automatic extraction (i.e., bootstrapping) from relational databases. BOOTOX has a number of advantages: it allows to control the OWL 2 profile of the output ontologies, and to bootstrap complex and provenance mappings, which are beyond the W3C direct mapping specification. Moreover, BOOTOX all...
