The Reasonable Ontology Templates Framework

Authors: Martin Georg Skjæveland and Leif Harald Karlsen

Published in: TGDK, Volume 2, Issue 2 (2024): Special Issue on Resources for Graph Data and Knowledge. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 2, Issue 2

Abstract
Reasonable Ontology Templates (OTTR) is a templating language for representing and instantiating patterns. It is based on simple and generic, but powerful, mechanisms such as recursive macro expansion, term substitution and type systems, and is designed particularly for building and maintaining RDF knowledge graphs and OWL ontologies. In this resource paper, we present the formal specifications that define the OTTR framework. This includes the fundamentals of the OTTR language and the adaptions to make it fit with standard semantic web languages, and two serialization formats developed for semantic web practitioners. We also present the OTTR framework’s support for documenting, publishing and managing template libraries, and for tools for practical bulk instantiation of templates from tabular data and queryable data sources. The functionality of the OTTR framework is available for use through Lutra, an open-source reference implementation, and other independent implementations. We report on the use and impact of OTTR by presenting selected industrial use cases. Finally, we reflect on some design considerations of the language and framework and present ideas for future work.

Authors: Jiaoyan Chen, Hang Dong, Janna Hastings, Ernesto Jiménez-Ruiz, Vanessa López, Pierre Monnin, Catia Pesquita, Petr Škoda, and Valentina Tamma

Published in: TGDK, Volume 1, Issue 1 (2023): Special Issue on Trends in Graph Data and Knowledge. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 1, Issue 1

Abstract
The term life sciences refers to the disciplines that study living organisms and life processes, and include chemistry, biology, medicine, and a range of other related disciplines. Research efforts in life sciences are heavily data-driven, as they produce and consume vast amounts of scientific data, much of which is intrinsically relational and graph-structured. The volume of data and the complexity of scientific concepts and relations referred to therein promote the application of advanced knowledge-driven technologies for managing and interpreting data, with the ultimate aim to advance scientific discovery. In this survey and position paper, we discuss recent developments and advances in the use of graph-based technologies in life sciences and set out a vision for how these technologies will impact these fields into the future. We focus on three broad topics: the construction and management of Knowledge Graphs (KGs), the use of KGs and associated technologies in the discovery of new knowledge, and the use of KGs in artificial intelligence applications to support explanations (explainable AI). We select a few exemplary use cases for each topic, discuss the challenges and open research questions within these topics, and conclude with a perspective and outlook that summarizes the overarching challenges and their potential solutions as a guide for future research.

Bounds and algebraic algorithms in differential algebra: the ordinary case

Authors: Marc Moreno Maza, Oleg Golubitsky, Marina V. Kondratieva, and Alexey Ovchinnikov

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6271, Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software (2006)

Abstract
Consider the Rosenfeld-Groebner algorithm for computing a regular decomposition of a radical differential ideal generated by a set of ordinary differential polynomials. This algorithm inputs a system of differential polynomials and a ranking on derivatives and constructs finitely many regular systems equivalent to the original one. The property of regularity allows to check consistency of the systems and membership to the corresponding differential ideals. We propose a bound on the orders of derivatives occurring in all intermediate and final systems computed by the Rosenfeld-Groebner algorithm and outline its proof. We also reduce the problem of conversion of a regular decomposition of a radical differential ideal from one ranking to another to a purely algebraic problem.

Two Families of Algorithms for Symbolic Polynomials

Authors: Stephen M. Watt

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6271, Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software (2006)

Abstract
We wish to work with polynomials where the exponents are not known in advance, such as $x^{2n} - 1$. There are various operations we will want to be able to do, such as squaring the value to get $x^{4n}-2x^{2n}+1$, or differentiating it to get $2nx^{2n-1}$. Expressions of this sort arise frequently in practice, for example in the analysis of algorithms, and it is very difficult to work with them effectively in current computer algebra systems. We consider the case where multivariate polynomials can have exponents which are themselves integer-valued multivariate polynomials, and we present algorithms to compute their GCD and factorization. The algorithms fall into two families: algebraic extension methods and interpolation methods. The first family of algorithms uses the algebraic independence of $x$, $x^n$, $x^{n^2}$, $x^{nm}, etc, to solve related problems with more indeterminates. Some subtlety is needed to avoid problems with fixed divisors of the exponent polynomials. The second family of algorithms uses evaluation and interpolation of the exponent polynomials. While these methods can run into unlucky evaluation points, in many cases they can be more appealing. Additionally, we also treat the case of symbolic exponents on rational coefficients (e.g. $4^{n^2+n}-81$) and show how to avoid integer factorization.

Pivot-Free Block Matrix Inversion

Authors: Stephen M. Watt

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6271, Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software (2006)

Abstract
We present a pivot-free deterministic algorithm for the inversion of block matrices. The method is based on the Moore-Penrose inverse and is applicable over certain general classes of rings. This improves on previous methods that required at least one invertible on-diagonal block, and that otherwise required row- or column-based pivoting, disrupting the block structure. Our method is applicable to any invertible matrix and does not require any particular blocks to invertible. This is achieved at the cost of two additional specialized matrix multiplications and, in some cases, requires the inversion to be performed in an extended ring.

06271 Executive Summary - Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software

Authors: Wolfram Decker, Mike Dewar, Erich Kaltofen, and Stephen M. Watt

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6271, Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software (2006)

Abstract
Symbolic computation software allows mathematicians, scientists, engineers, or educators to deal with elaborate calculations using a computer. The applications range from introducing the experimental method in fields of pure mathematics to practical applications, for instance, in cryptology, robotics, or signal theory. The software includes mainstream commercial products such as Maple or Mathematica and highly specialized, public domain systems such as CoCoa, Macaulay2, or Singular. Symbolic computation software implements a variety of sophisticated algorithms on polynomials, matrices, combinatorial structures, and other mathematical objects in a multitude of different dense, sparse, or implicit (black box) representations. The subject of the seminar was innovation in algorithms and software, bringing algorithm designers, software builders, and software users together.

Adaptive Triangular System Solving

Authors: Jean-Guillaume Dumas, Clément Pernet, and Jean-Louis Roch

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6271, Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software (2006)

Abstract
Large-scale applications and software systems are getting increasingly complex. To deal with this complexity, those systems must manage themselves in accordance with high-level guidance from humans. Adaptive and hybrid algorithms enable this self-management of resources and structured inputs. In this talk, we first propose a classification of the different notions of adaptivity. For us, an algorithm is adaptive (or a poly-algorithm) when there is a choice at a high level between at least two distinct algorithms, each of which could solve the same problem. The choice is strategic, not tactical. It is motivated by an increase of the performance of the execution, depending on both input/output data and computing resources. Then we propose a new adaptive algorithm for the exact simultaneous resolution of several triangular systems over finite fields. The resolution of such systems is e.g. one of the two main operations in block Gaussian elimination. For solving triangular systems over finite fields, the block algorithm reduces to matrix multiplication and achieves the best known algebraic complexity. Exact matrix multiplication, together with matrix factorizations, over finite fields can now be performed at the speed of the highly optimized numerical BLAS routines. This has been established by the FFLAS and FFPACK libraries. In this talk we propose several practicable variants solving these systems: a pure recursive version, a reduction to the numerical dtrsm routine and a delaying of the modulus operation. Then a cascading scheme is proposed to merge these variants into an adaptive sequential algorithm. We then propose a parallelization of this resolution. The adaptive sequential algorithm is not the best parallel algorithm since its recursion induces a dependancy. A better parallel algorithm would be to first invert the matrix and then to multiply this inverse by the right hand side. Unfortunately the latter requires more total operations than the adaptive algorithm. We thus propose a coupling of the sequential algorithm and of the parallel one in order to get the best performances on any number of processors. The resulting cascading is then an adaptation to resources. This shows that the same process has been used both for adaptation to data and to resources. We thus propose a generic framework for the automatic adaptation of algorithms using recursive cascading.

Computation of the Minimal Associated Primes

Authors: Santiago Laplagne

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6271, Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software (2006)

Abstract
Solving systems of polynomial equations is a main task in Computer Algebra, although the precise meaning of what is an acceptable solution depends on the context. In this talk, we interpret it as finding the minimal associated primes of the ideal generated by the polynomials. Geometrically, this is equivalent to decompose the set of solutions into its irreducible components. We study the existing algorithms, and propose some modifications. A common technique used is to reduce the problem to the zero dimensional case. In a paper by Gianni, Trager and Zacharias they use this technique, combined with the splitting tool $I = (I : h^infty) cap langle I, h^m angle$ for some specific polynomial $h$ and integer $m$. This splitting introduces a number of redundant components that are not part of the original ideal. In the algorithm we present here, we use the reduction to the zero dimensional case, but we avoid working with the ideal $langle I, h^m angle$. As a result, when the ideal has components of different dimensions, our algorithm is usually more efficient.

Computational Aspects of the Resolution of Singularities

Authors: Anne Frühbis-Krüger

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6271, Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software (2006)

Abstract
The task of resolution of singularities has been one of the central topics in Algebraic Geometry for many decades. After results in low dimension in the first half of the 20th century, it was Hironaka's monumental article in 1964 which solved the porblem in the general case in chareacteristic zero. The case of characteristic $p > 0$ is still unsolved except in partial results in low dimension. But Hironaka's proof did not put an end to the interest in characteric zero, instead it shifted the focus toward the task of finding a more constructive approach. Such algorithmic approaches appeared at the end of the 1980's independently by Villamayor and by Bierstone and Milman. In this talk we consider the computational tasks arising from Villamayor's algorithm and present an implementation.

Coxeter Lattice Paths

Authors: Thomas J. Ashby, Anthony D. Kennedy, and Stephen M. Watt

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6271, Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software (2006)

Abstract
This talk concerns generating code for running computationally intensive numerical lattice QCD simulations on large parallel computers, using an approach based on the theory of Coxeter groups. Many physical systems have inherent symmetry, and this is usually implicit in the calculations needed to simulate them using discrete approximations, and thus in the associated code. By reversing this and basing the generation of code on the symmetry group of the lattice in question, we arrive at a very natural way of generating and reasoning about programs. The principal aim is a formal way of representing lattices and the paths on these lattices that correspond to the required calculations. This foundation allows the creation and manipulation of lattices and paths to be automated, obviating what can be a labour-intensive and errorprone task. In more detail, a method will be given for representing the points of a regular lattice as elements of the translation subgroup of an affine Coxeter group, by finding the subgroup generators starting from the Coxeter graph of the affine group. Similarly, step sequences are derived as words in the free group generated by the translation subgroup generators themselves. We introduce code generation techniques and the automation of two code optimisations; the grouping of paths into equivalence classes, and the factoring out of common path segments. The latter technique reduces the amount of communication necessary between nodes, and is thus likely to be important in practice.

Decomposition of Differential Polynomials

Authors: Xiao-Shan Gao and Mingbo Zhang

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6271, Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software (2006)

Abstract
We present an algorithm to decompose nonlinear differential polynomials in one variable and with rational functions as coefficients. The algorithm is implemented in Maple for the {em constant field} case. The program can be used to decompose differential polynomials with more than one thousand terms effectively.

GNU TeXmacs

Authors: Joris van der Hoeven

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6271, Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software (2006)

Abstract
GNU TeXmacs is a free scientific editing platform with special features for mathematicians. The editor can be used to produce documents with a professional typesetting quality (better than TeX/LaTeX) via a user-friendly front-end. The editor can be used as a front-end to several computer algebra systems and includes a lot of additional facilities, like a presentation mode, a technical picture editor, a typed linking tool, etc. The editor can be extended by users in several ways: using style files, plug-ins or via the Scheme extension language. Converters exist for LaTeX, Xhtml and MathML.

MathBrush: An Experimental Pen-Based Math System

Authors: George Labahn, Scott MacLean, Marzouk Mirette, Ian Rutherford, and David Tausky

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6271, Challenges in Symbolic Computation Software (2006)

Abstract
It is widely believed that mathematics will be one of the major applications for Tablet PCs and other pen-based devices. In this paper we discuss many of the issues that make doing mathematics on such pen-based devices a hard task. We give a preliminary description of an experimental system, currently named MathBrush, for working with mathematics using pen-based devices. The system allows a user to enter mathematical expressions with a pen and to then do mathematical computation using a computer algebra system. The system provides a simple and easy way for users to verify the correctness of their handwritten expressions and, if needed, to correct any errors in recognition. Choosing mathematical operations is done making use of context menus, both with input and output expressions.
