Semantic Mapping Vocabulary

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.

This proposed vocabulary allows edges in Property Graphs (e.g Neo4j, RDF*) to be augmented with edge properties that specify ontological semantics, including (but not limited) to OWL-DL interpretations. [from GitHub]

SSTIM is an open OWL and SKOS vocabulary for sensory stimulation. It mints identifiers for stimulation techniques, stimuli and their parameters, delivery media and body placements, exposure and safety boundaries, session records, and the evidence assessments attached to a claim. It exists so that auditory, visual, tactile and cross-modal stimulation protocols can be described and exchanged in one vocabulary instead of per-study prose, and it is used by researchers, tool builders and the W3C Sensory Stimulation Vocabulary Community Group.

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.
