GO Rules are a way of documenting the set of filters and reports that should apply to GAF annotation data. Some rules are expressed as SPARQL on a triplestore, some are code in the GAF parsing software, ontobio.

The Common Core Ontologies (CCO) comprise twelve ontologies that are designed to represent and integrate taxonomies of generic classes and relations across all domains of interest. CCO is a mid-level extension of Basic Formal Ontology (BFO), an upper-level ontology framework widely used to structure and integrate ontologies in the biomedical domain (Arp, et al., 2015). BFO aims to represent the most generic categories of entity and the most generic types of relations that hold between them, by defining a small number of classes and relations. CCO then extends from BFO in the sense that every class in CCO is asserted to be a subclass of some class in BFO, and that CCO adopts the generic relations defined in BFO (e.g., has_part) (Smith and Grenon, 2004). Accordingly, CCO classes and relations are heavily constrained by the BFO framework, from which it inherits much of its basic semantic relationships.

Vitro is a full stack framework for building semantic web applications. It is not domain specific.

SSSOM is a Simple Standard for Sharing Ontological Mappings, providing - a TSV-based representation for ontology term mappings - a comprehensive set of standard metadata elements to describe mappings and - a standard translation between the TSV and the Web Ontology Language (OWL). Most metadata elements, such as "sssom:mapping_justification" are defined in the sssom namespace.

BioCompute is shorthand for the IEEE 2791-2020 standard for Bioinformatics Analyses Generated by High-Throughput Sequencing (HTS) to facilitate communication. This pipeline documentation approach has been adopted by a few FDA centers. The goal is to ease the communication burdens between research centers, organizations, and industries. This web portal allows users to build a BioCompute Objects through the interface in a human and machine readable format.

An ontology that represents the basic knowledge of physical, chemical and functional characteristics of nanotechnology as used in cancer diagnosis and therapy.

an ontology for vector surveillance and management, focusing on arthropod vectors and vector-borne pathogens with relevance to humans or domestic animals, and with special emphasis on content to support operational activities through inclusion in databases, data management systems, or decision support systems.
