NAME

OWL::DirectSemantics - representation of the direct semantics of OWL2

SYNOPSIS

  use RDF::Trine;
  my $model = RDF::Trine::Model->temporary_model;
  RDF::Trine::Mode->parse_url_into_model($url, $model);
  
  use OWL::DirectSemantics;
  my $translator = OWL::DirectSemantics::Translator->new;
  my $ontology   = $translator->translate($model);
  
  foreach my $ax ($ontology->axioms)
  {
    if ($ax->element_name eq 'ClassAssertion')
    {
      printf("%s is of type %s.\n", $ax->node, $ax->class);
    }
  }
  
  print "The following data couldn't be translated to OWL:\n";
  print RDF::Trine::Serializer
    ->new('ntriples')
    ->serialize_model_to_string($model);

DESCRIPTION

This distribution provides a basic framework for representing the OWL 2 direct semantics model, and a translator to build that model from an RDF-based model.
