Exploring RDF Datasets with LDscout

Anna Goy, Diego Magro, Francesco Conforti

2018

Abstract

In this paper, we present the formal model underlying LDscout, a Java library enabling developers to query a dataset specifying the vocabulary (ontology) they want to use and the instances they want to query about. The model is based on the formal definition of the concepts of Exploration Task and Exploration Task Solution, and is independent from the dataset. In this paper, we present the specific implementation that enables the interaction with RDF triplestores using OWL ontologies. In order to assess our approach, we report the usage of LDscout within PRiSMHA, a Digital Humanities project aimed at enhancing the access to historical archives through Semantic Web technologies.
