StaticRdfsReasoner Class |
An Inference Engine which uses RDFS reasoning.
Inheritance HierarchyNamespace: VDS.RDF.Query.Inference
Assembly: dotNetRDF (in dotNetRDF.dll) Version:
SyntaxThe StaticRdfsReasoner type exposes the following members.
Constructors| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | StaticRdfsReasoner |
Creates a new instance of the Static RdfsReasoner.
|
Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Apply(IGraph) |
Applies inference to the given Graph and outputs the inferred information to that Graph.
|
| Apply(IGraph, IGraph) |
Applies inference to the Input Graph and outputs the inferred information to the Output Graph.
|
| Equals | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
 | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Initialise |
Imports any Class heirarchy information from the given Graph into the Reasoners Knowledge Base in order to initialise the Reasoner.
|
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
RemarksDoes basic RDFS inferencing using the schema taken from the Graph(s) which are provided in calls to the reasoners Initialise() method.
Types of inference performed are as follows:.
- Class hierarchy reasoning - asserts additional types triples for anything that is typed as the subclass of a class.
- Property hierarchy reasoning - asserts additional property triples for anything where the predicate is a subproperty of a defined property
- Domain & Range reasoning - asserts additional type triples based on the domains and ranges of properties
