can definitely understand that. in its defense, the only viable alternative was RDF + SHACL

I keep expecting RDF to come into the picture too. OWL/SHACL for inference and reasoning over knowledge graphs fits the pattern quite well, but I'm not seeing much activity outside of the rdf database companies themselves.

Exciting News: A new official SHACL Working Group has been approved by the W3C. This will improve SHACL in depth (incremental improvements) but also in its breadth (such as support for inferencing) lists.w3.org/Archives/Pub...
Call for Participation: Data Shapes Working Group Charter Approved; Join the Data Shapes WG from xueyuan on 2024-12-16 (public-shacl@w3.org from December 2024)

3) prodotto le shacl shape relative, per i concetti principali (prima versione) - (io)
4) materializzato dati secondo l'ontologia con fine tuning di prompt di AI generativa

Bene, consegniamo!

NON SI PUÒ LAVORARE COSÌ, non fatelo! 😱

In case there are any #SHACL geeks here, this is an experimental feature that I have been working on recently: datashapes.org/dynamic.html

Honored to receive the IFIP TC2 Manfred Paul Award (2024) with Kashif Rabbani and @kuzeko.bsky.social for our VLDB 2022 paper on generating #SHACL shapes from large knowledge graphs. Scales to billions of triples, mining meaningful patterns using support and confidence.

Oggi è stata la giornata di prove con SHACL - www.w3.org/TR/shacl/ ossia definizione di "forme" su nodi di un grafo 🙂 Per ora prendetela così 🙂 Poi arriverò a spiegare tutto quello che faccio, ve l'avevo promesso già da tempo 🇮🇹

Hi, new platform! Let's see how long it takes before I forget about you. Depends on the number of #semtech nerds around, I guess.
#rdf #kg #w3c #semanticweb #owl #shacl #knowledgegraph anyone?

Guy, lo so che vi mancherò come non mai, soprattutto a quell'acidello di @joycedivision.bsky.social ma ora vado di SHACL shapes e devo concentrarmi che è un attimo sbagliare e invalidare tutto! 😂
Tenete a bada @illuchino.bsky.social che ce l'ha lì pronta!! 😘

Why does one paper cite another—to support a claim, extend an idea, or use a method? CiTO makes those relationships explicit.

What is the best way to make a #Sparnatural #SHACL specification ? can we use an existing one directly ? does it require customization ? what if no SHACL spec exists at all ?

An example based on #HumaNum 's #Nakala graph.
Soon in @veronahe.bsky.social's book ! 📖

Hi Andrew, what in particular do you see missing in expressiveness from SHACL compared to OWL?

(Unrelated: There is a SHACL 1.2 WG starting soon...)
November 26, 2024 at 11:34 AM
yes roughly, though you also need to introduce shape vocabularies like SHACL to fully 1:1 with rdf
November 5, 2024 at 2:06 AM
A new official SHACL WG working towards version 1.2 has been proposed and can be voted on by W3C members: www.w3.org/2024/10/data...

E anche il lavoro tecnico è stato un minimo affrontato. Più di così in un giorno come questo non si riesce a fare. Volendo, per la rebuttal del paper, ora si può dire qualcosa di più.

Sono talmente cotta che ho fatto le SHACL shape con occhi semichiusi.
Buonanotte a tutti!
