Word
comment: In the integration of KEM and NIF, a nif:Word is equated to the tokens returned by the NLP tokenization task. The use of the following properties is suggested: (1) nif:lemma, to represent the lemma of the token (2) nif:stem, to represent the stem of the token (3) nif:oliaLink, together with a constant from olia_top:MorphosyntacticCategory (e.g., from Penn OLiA module) to represent the part-of-speech. (4) nif:dependency and nif:dependencyRelationType (the latter together with constants from OLiA, e.g. the dependency labels in the stanford module) to link a token to its immediate children in the dependency tree

As for NIF specification, properties nif:beginIndex, nif:endIndex, and nif:anchorOf should be always specified for a nif:String. Property itsrdf:termInfoRef (from the Internationalized Tag Set W3C standard) can be used to associate a nif:String to a lexical sense or lexical concept it can be disambiguated with.

description: KEM (Knowledge Extraction Model), is an ontological model that supports the RDF/OWL representation and alignment of all the contents involved in Knowledge Extraction from unstructured resources. KEM is built around the semiotic notions of reference and meaning, and consists of two modules: KEM Core and KEM Text. This ontology is the Text module of KEM (prefix kemt) and builds on KEM Core and NIF (NLP Interchange Format). KEM Text introduces several subclasses of kem:SemanticAnnotation for modeling the entities and the semantic relations among them that can be extracted from text via NLP. These semantic annotations can be instantiated based on NLP outputs, and aim at: (i) generalizing the heterogeneous annotations produced by tools for typical NLP tasks, usually coming in different formats, thus enabling to uniformly handle the different types of linguistic annotations produced; and (ii) representing, in a structured form, all the linguistic information needed to extract the knowledge conveyed by the text, such that access to the original text is not needed for further processing. #### Main Concepts (box 2) The definition of KEM Text starts by introducing some main concepts that specialize KEM Core for text media, reusing where appropriate terms from NIF: * kemt:TextResource, refinement of kem:Resource, represents a textual resource consisting of plain text without any structure or markup. * nif:String (from NIF) is declared as a specialization of kem:Fragment. * nif:Context (from NIF) is the maximal fragment associated to a kemt:TextResource. Compatibility with NIF is achieved by requiring that: (i) a nif:Context must be always present for a kemt:TextResource; (ii) property nif:sourceURL, subproperty of kem:fragmentOf, must be used to link a nif:Context to its kemt:TextResource; and (iii) all the nif:String fragments of the kemt:TextResource must be also associated to the nif:Context via property nif:referenceContext. * nif:Annotation (from NIF) is declared as a spe…

event instance
type: Class
comment: Temporal element annotation corresponding to an occurrence (or a set of occurrences) of an event, i.e., a situation that happens or occurs, being punctual or lasting for a period of time. An kemt:EventInstance is characterized by a kemt:type, taking values from kemt:EventType. If the event instance is expressed by a verb predicate, properties kemt:aspect and kemt:tense can be used to specify its aspect and tense (these properties are defined on kemt:EventInstance, and not on the annotated nif:String, for better consistency with TimeML). The EventInstance can be modified by enumerated properties kemt:modality (e.g., 'should') and kemt:polarity (negative if the event is to be negated, i.e., the opposite holds). An optional kemt:signalString can be specified to specify an additional string (w.r.t. the one annotated by the kemt:EventInstance) that provides evidence for a specific EventInstance among the ones denoted by the annotated string. E.g., "John taught yesterday but not today" gives rise to two kemt:EventInstances, both having "taught" as event and possibly with different signals. This class derives from the MAKEINSTANCE element of TimeML, while the string annotated with this class roughly corresponds to the EVENT markable in TIMEML.

The identity of a kemt:ConstituentNode is given by the annotated constituent string and its syntactic category. Constituent nodes are related by three relations: (1) kemt:immediatelyDominates - links a node to the node it immediately dominates in the constituency tree (i.e., its direct children) (2) kemt:dominates - the transitive closure of kemt:immediatelyDominates (3) kemt:headConstituentNode - link a node to the child node representing the head of the constituent

factuality link
type: Class
comment: FactBank link expressing a binary factuality relation between a source kemt:EventInstance and a target kemt:EventSource. The range of kemt:relation is restricted to kemt:FactualityRelation, which covers the three cases of factuality assignment, factuality source introduction, and source-introducing predicate origination from another source. The ranges of kemt:source and kemt:target are restricted to kemt:EventInstance. For factuality assignment links, a further property kemt:factValue can be used to specify the factuality value assigned by the source to the event instance. This class is inspired by the modeling of factuality of FactBank <https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/docs/LDC2009T23/annotationGuidelines.pdf>. We model factuality relations as binary links for consistency with other binary relations modeled this way, although in FactBank they are not called 'link’.

Boolean property kemt:temporalFunction is set to true if the normalized value is expressed as a function of another so-called anchor time expression (connected via a kemt:TemporalLink), The value of a kemt:Timex can be modified by an optional kemt:mod. Property kemt:functionInDocument provides the function the kemt:Timex plays in the associated document (e.g., creation time). If the temporal expression denotes a duration, it can be linked to the timex representing its begin and end points via kemt:TemporalLink(s). This class derives from the TIMEX3 element of TimeML.

type: NamedIndividual
type: factuality value
comment: Factuality value denoting that the source certainly knows whether it is the case that the event occurred or not (but this is not expressed in the text). See <https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/docs/LDC2009T23/annotationGuidelines.pdf#page=17>.

certainly negative
type: NamedIndividual
type: factuality value
comment: Factuality value denoting that, according to the source, it is certainly not the case that the event occurred. See <https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/docs/LDC2009T23/annotationGuidelines.pdf#page=17>.

factuality source
type: Class
comment: Entity annotation for a source of factuality judgements. A kemt:FactualitySource can be explicitly stated in the text (and thus corresponds to a text markable) or it can be implicit, as in the case of the text author (thus, property nif:annotation is not mandatory). Apart from the implicit text author, other factuality sources are introduced by (so-called) source-introducing predicates, which are kemt:EventInstance(s) expressed by verbs such as 'say', 'believe', etc. kemt:FactualityLink(s) relate a kemt:FactualitySource to: (i) the event instance a factuality judgment is expressed for; (ii) the source-introducing event instance for that source; and (iii) an event instance that originates / is reported by the source. See <https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/docs/LDC2009T23/annotationGuidelines.pdf#page=3>.
subclass of: entity annotation

factuality relation
type: Class
comment: Enumeration of relations specified via kemt:FactualityLink. Currently three relations are defined, based on the factuality modeling of FactBank: * kemt:frel_factuality_assignment - the assignment of a factuality value to an event instance by a source agent * kemt:frel_source_introduction - the fact that a source agent is introduced in the discourse by an event (called source-introducing predicate) * kemt:frel_event_origin - the fact that a source-introducing event originates from another source (this allows deriving the nesting relation of FactBank) See <https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/docs/LDC2009T23/annotationGuidelines.pdf>.
