  1. Internet Technologies The Semantic Web and The Resource Description Framework (RDF and RDFa) 95-733 Internet Technologies

  2. RDF and RDFa Notes from three articles on course schedule: “What is RDF” by Tim Bray and Joshua Tauberer, the “RDFa Primer” from W3C and from Google’s adoption of RDFa and Microformats. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  3. First: Let’s get some RDF • curl --include --location –header "Accept:application/rdf+xml" http://dbpedia.org/resource/Yukihiro_Matsumoto • Can we learn anything from the result? • Is there any other data we can learn from? 95-733 Internet Technologies

  4. Each of these stores many many RDF triples. See www.linkeddata.org 95-733 Internet Technologies

  5. So, what’s a “triple”? A triple is a statement in some RDF format. The next slides shows how we can combine some triples into Knowledge Graph. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  6. A Knowledge Graph 95-733 Internet Technologies

  7. Triples Start Node Edge Label End Node vincent_donofrio starred_in law_&_order_ci law_&_order_ci is_a tv_show the_thirteenth_floor similar_plot_as the_matrix 95-733 Internet Technologies

  8. Notation 3 (N3) or Turtle Format @prefix rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> . @prefix ex: <http://www.example.org/> . ex:vincent_donofrio ex:starred_in ex:law_and_order_ci . ex:law_and_order_ci rdf:type ex:tv_show . ex:the_thirteenth_floor ex:similar_plot_as ex:the_matrix . 95-733 Internet Technologies

  9. RDF/XML <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:ex="http://www.example.org/"> <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://www.example.org/vincent_donofrio"> <ex:starred_in> <ex:tv_show rdf:about="http://www.example.org/law_and_order_ci" /> </ex:starred_in> </rdf:Description> <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://www.example.org/the_thirteenth_floor"> <ex:similar_plot_as rdf:resource="http://www.example.org/the_matrix" /> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF> 95-733 Internet Technologies

  10. Another RDF/XML <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" xmlns:geo="http://www. w3.org/2003/01/geo/wgs84_pos#" xmlns:edu="http://www.example.org/"> <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://www.princeton.edu"> <geo:lat>40.35</geo:lat> <geo:long>-74.66</geo:long> <edu:hasDept rdf:resource="http://www.cs.princeton.edu" dc:title="Department of Computer Science"/> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF> 95-733 Internet Technologies

  11. As A Table Subject Predicate Object ----------------------------- ----------- -------- <http://www.princeton.edu> edu:hasDept <http://www.cs.princeton.edu> <http://www.princeton.edu> geo:lat "40.35" <http://www.princeton.edu> geo:long "-74.66" <http://www.cs.princeton.edu> dc:title "Department of Computer Science" 95-733 Internet Technologies

  12. Notation 3 @prefix rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> . @prefix dc: <http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/> . @prefix geo: <http://www. w3.org/2003/01/geo/wgs84_pos#> . @prefix edu: <http://www.example.org/> . <http://www.princeton.edu> geo:lat "40.35" ; geo:long "-74.66" . <http://www.cs.princeton.edu> dc:title "Department of Computer Science" . <http://www.princeton.edu> edu:hasDept <http://www.cs.princeton.edu> . 95-733 Internet Technologies

  13. RDFa and RDF • RDFa is a lightweight version of RDF for web pages. • RDF stands on its own. • We’ll first look at RDFa and then RDF. • RDFa is being used today by search engines like Google and sites like Best Buy. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  14. From the RDFa W3C Primer “When web data meant for humans is augmented with hints meant for computer programs, these programs become significantly more helpful.” 95-733 Internet Technologies

  15. XHTML Without and With RDFa All content on this site is licensed under <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"> a Creative Commons License </a> All content on this site is licensed under <a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"> a Creative Commons License </a>. The rel, in a link, describes the relationship between the current page and the linked page. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  16. A Link with a Flavor 95-733 Internet Technologies

  17. Labeling Title and Author <div> <h2>The trouble with Bob</h2> <h3>Alice</h3> ... </div> <div xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"> <h2 property="dc:title">The trouble with Bob</h2> <h3 property="dc:creator">Alice</h3> ... </div> RDFa introduces the property attribute. What kind of title? A title of a person or a title to land or a title of a work? 95-733 Internet Technologies

  18. In RDFa, all property names are, in fact, URLs. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  19. Multiple Items Per Page RDFa provides @about, an attribute for specifying the exact URL to which the contained RDFa markup applies <div xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"> <div about="/alice/posts/trouble_with_bob"> <h2 property="dc:title">The trouble with Bob</h2> <h3 property="dc:creator">Alice</h3> ... </div> <div about="/alice/posts/jos_barbecue"> <h2 property="dc:title">Jo's Barbecue</h2> <h3 property="dc:creator">Eve</h3> ... </div> </div> 95-733 Internet Technologies

  20. As a Diagram 95-733 Internet Technologies

  21. Alice Gives Bob Credit <div about="/alice/posts/trouble_with_bob"> <h2 property="dc:title">The trouble with Bob</h2> The trouble with Bob is that he takes much better photos than I do: <div about="http://example.com/bob/photos/sunset.jpg"> <img src="http://example.com/bob/photos/sunset.jpg" /> <span property="dc:title">Beautiful Sunset</span> by <span property="dc:creator">Bob</span>. </div> </div> The inner about overrides the outer about. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  22. As A Graph 95-733 Internet Technologies

  23. Blog Contact Info <div> <p> Alice Birpemswick </p> <p> Email: <a href="mailto:alice@example.com">alice@example.com</a> </p> <p> Phone: <a href="tel:+1-617-555-7332">+1 617.555.7332</a> </p> </div> This is mainly useful for viewing. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  24. Blog w/FOAF Contact Info The Dublin core has no vocabulary for describing friendships. But foaf does. <div typeof="foaf:Person" xmlns:foaf="http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/"> <p property="foaf:name">Alice Birpemswick</p> <p>Email: <a rel="foaf:mbox" href="mailto:alice@example.com"> alice@example.com</a> </p> <p> Phone: <a rel="foaf:phone" href="tel:+1-617-555-7332">+1 617.555.7332</a> </p> </div> The typeof is an RDFa attribute that is specifically meant to declare a new data item with a certain type. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  25. As A Graph Alice didn't specify @about like she did when adding blog entry metadata. What is she associating these properties with, then? In fact, the @typeof on the enclosing div implicitly sets the subject of the properties marked up within that div. The name, email address, and phone number are associated with a new node of type foaf:Person. This node has no URL to identify it, so it is called a blank node. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  26. Social Networks <div> <ul> <li> <a href="http://example.com/bob/">Bob</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://example.com/eve/">Eve</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://example.com/manu/">Manu</a> </li> </ul> </div> These people are all friends of Alice and she Includes them in her normal HTML blog. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  27. Adding RDFa First,describe these as Persons. <div xmlns:foaf="http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/"> <ul> <li typeof="foaf:Person"> <a href="http://example.com/bob/">Bob</a> </li> <li typeof="foaf:Person"> <a href="http://example.com/eve/">Eve</a> </li> <li typeof="foaf:Person"> <a href="http://example.com/manu/">Manu</a> </li> </ul> </div> 95-733 Internet Technologies

  28. Add Homepages Use rel for the link relationships. <div xmlns:foaf="http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/"> <ul> <li typeof="foaf:Person"> <a rel="foaf:homepage" href="http://example.com/bob/">Bob</a> </li> <li typeof="foaf:Person"> <a rel="foaf:homepage" href="http://example.com/eve/">Eve</a> </li> <li typeof="foaf:Person"> <a rel="foaf:homepage" href="http://example.com/manu/">Manu</a> </li> </ul> </div> 95-733 Internet Technologies

  29. Describe Text as Names <div xmlns:foaf="http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/"> <ul> <li typeof="foaf:Person"> <a property="foaf:name" rel="foaf:homepage" href="http://example.com/bob/">Bob</a> </li> <li typeof="foaf:Person"> <a property="foaf:name" rel="foaf:homepage" href="http://example.com/eve/">Eve</a> </li> <li typeof="foaf:Person"> <a property="foaf:name" rel="foaf:homepage" href="http://example.com/manu/">Manu</a> </li> </ul> </div> 95-733 Internet Technologies

  30. Claim in Primer “Alice is ecstatic that, with so little additional markup, she's able to fully express both a pleasant human-readable page and a machine-readable dataset.” 95-733 Internet Technologies

  31. Using foaf:knows <div xmlns:foaf="http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/" about="#me" rel="foaf:knows"> <ul> <li typeof="foaf:Person"> <a property="foaf:name" rel="foaf:homepage" href="http://example.com/bob">Bob</a> </li> <li typeof="foaf:Person"> <a property="foaf:name" rel="foaf:homepage" href="http://example.com/eve">Eve</a> </li> <li typeof="foaf:Person"> <a property="foaf:name" rel="foaf:homepage" href="http://example.com/manu">Manu</a> </li> </ul> </div> Alice knows these people with these names and homepages. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  32. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  33. Building Custom Vocabularies 1. Selecting a URL where the vocabulary will reside, e.g. http://example.com/photos/vocab#. 2. Distributing an RDF document, at that URL, which defines the classes and properties that make up the vocabulary. For example, Alice may want to define classes Photo and Camera, as well as the property takenWith that relates a photo to the camera with which it was taken. 3. Using the vocabulary in XHTML+RDFa with the usual prefix declaration mechanism, e.g. xmlns:photo="http://example.com/photos/vocab#", and typeof="photo:Camera". 95-733 Internet Technologies

  34. Microformats Compete with RDFa Not from a standards body. A grassroots effort since 2004. hCard Business card data XFN Friends and contacts hCalendar Events hReview Review movies, books, etc.. “When web data meant for humans is augmented with hints meant for computer programs, these programs become significantly more helpful.” 95-733 Internet Technologies

  35. Microformats Compete with RDFa As an exercise, visit: http://microformats.org and build an hCard and an hCalendar. Use hCard creator and hCalendar creator. Quiz. What information is requested by the XFN tool? 95-733 Internet Technologies

  36. Google adopted Microformats and RDFa in 2009 Why? In support of “Rich Snippits”. “Google Rich Snippets provides structured data in Google search result snippets. Webmasters can provide this structured data by using microformats or RDFa to mark up their web pages. “ See the Rich Snippit Testing Tool at : http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets 95-733 Internet Technologies

  37. Rich Snippits “This kind of markup is designed for sites containing specific types of structured data. Google currently supports the following information types: reviews, people profiles, business listings, and events.” From: http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=99170 95-733 Internet Technologies

  49. Quiz For each RDFa document, draw a knowledge graph. For each RDFa attribute, trace its meaning with the ontology at http://rdf.data-vocabulary.org/#. 95-733 Internet Technologies

  50. RDF On Its Own • RDFa is RDF in XHTML. • The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a W3C recommendation for • an XML encoding of metadata. • A standard for encoding metadata is important for finding and • describing resources. A “resource” is anything with a URI. This would • include people, books, devices and so on. • Card catalogs, for example, have been used for years to record metadata • about the collection of materials in libraries. Is Google the card catalogue • for the web? Are we done? 95-733 Internet Technologies
