On the Semantics of R2RML and its Relationship with the Direct Mapping

چکیده

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 defining its semantics using Datalog. We prove that there are a total of 57 distinct Datalog rules which can be used to generate RDF triples from a relational table. Additionally, we provide insights on the relationship between R2RML and Direct Mapping.

A duality between LM-fuzzy possibility computations and their logical semantics

Let X be a dcpo and let L be a complete lattice. The family σL(X) of all Scott continuous mappings from X to L is a complete lattice under pointwise order, we call it the L-fuzzy Scott structure on X. Let E be a dcpo. A mapping g : σL(E) −> M is called an LM-fuzzy possibility valuation of E if it preserves arbitrary unions. Denote by πLM(E) the set of all LM-fuzzy possibility valuations of E. T...

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 ...

An Approach for Automatically Generating R2RML-Based Direct Mapping from Relational Databases

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 ...

Relational 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 ...

Extending R2RML to a Source-independent Mapping Language for RDF

Although reaching the fifth star of the Open Data deployment scheme demands the data to be represented in RDF and linked, a generic and standard mapping procedure to deploy raw data in RDF was not established so far. Only the R2RML mapping language was standardized but its applicability is limited to mappings from relational databases to RDF. We propose the extension of R2RML to also support ma...
