How to harvest wikidata for generating an ontology with owlready (python)?

发布于 2021-02-11 13:48:08

With the help e.g. of wikidata_query(...) it is simple to perform queries to wikidata from python:

E.g.

q = """
SELECT ?item ?itemLabel 
WHERE 
{
  ?item wdt:P279 wd:Q125977.
  SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "[AUTO_LANGUAGE],en". }
}
"""

wikidata_query(q)

retrieves all subclasses of Q125977 (vector space). However, the result is a plain json structure. I instead want to have an owlready2-ontology (more precisely only the subclassOf-relations).

Is there code available that (partially) does this task or do I have to code this by myself? In the latter case: what would be the smartest way to do (e.g. use some customizable depth, handle multiple inheritance)?

The following iterates over your output DataFrame and populates the ontology with subclass assertions:

from owlready2 import *
import re

def get_entity_id(iri) :
    return re.sub(r".*[#/\\]", "", iri)

def get_subclass_assertions(wd_superclass_id) :
    q = """
    SELECT ?item ?itemLabel 
    WHERE 
    {
      ?item wdt:P279 wd:%s.
      SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "[AUTO_LANGUAGE],en". }
    }
    """ % wd_superclass_id
    
    ontology = get_ontology("http://www.wikidata.org/entity/")
    with ontology:
        SuperClass = types.new_class(wd_superclass_id, (Thing,))
        assert SuperClass.name == wd_superclass_id
        for _, row in wikidata_query(q).iterrows():
            new_class_id = get_entity_id(row['item'])
            NewClass = types.new_class(new_class_id, (SuperClass,))
            NewClass.label = row['itemLabel']
    
    return ontology

wd_id = "Q125977"

ontology = get_subclass_assertions(wd_id)       # get the ontology
subclasses = list(ontology[wd_id].subclasses()) # now you can accede to subclasses

print(subclasses)                               # [entity.Q190109, entity.Q289411, entity.Q305936, entity.Q464794, entity.Q577835, entity.Q726210, entity.Q728435, entity.Q752487, entity.Q766774, entity.Q1000660, entity.Q1393796, entity.Q1455249, entity.Q1503340, entity.Q1777803, entity.Q2133608, entity.Q2344309, entity.Q3058206, entity.Q4131086, entity.Q4131105, entity.Q5156614, entity.Q7642975, entity.Q15834383, entity.Q42797338, entity.Q46996054, entity.Q63793693, entity.Q77595632, entity.Q77604597, entity.Q91474415, entity.Q98929437]
