ontology
Carol Jewell
Game of Thrones
purpose
Primarily as a challenge for me to learn how to set up an RDF/OWL
ontology that utilizes inferences.
Scope
Include all the major Houses (4) and minor Houses (5) and the
associated family members. Associate family members with
Parent/Child, Spouse, and Sibling relationships with each
Character.
Include as much additional information about the GoT world as
possible.
Main users
The HBO website is already a great resource and the graphics are a
necessary feature for a front-end application. At best this could be
useful as a back-end system.
