Need to describe all Bio2RDF entities

[micheldumontier]

Currently there is no support for entity resolution for arbitrary entities that appear in Bio2RDF datasets. Consider the statistics page for affymetrix probesets
http://download.bio2rdf.org/release/3/html/affymetrix.html

The first type http://bio2rdf.org/wormbase_vocabulary:Resource does not resolve even though WormBase is part of the Bio2RDF distribution.

The second type http://bio2rdf.org/uniprot_vocabulary:Resource does not resolve.

the web application should send out a federated query to SPARQL endpoints to gather triples to describe these terms.

bio2rdf.org now supporting every dataset that is part of the Bio2RDF release 2 or 3.

Actually working on bio2rdf.org resolving any arbitrary entity.

I have deployed a first version of Talend implementation of the queryAll service based on the statistics of the release 3.

http://queryall.rest.bio2rdf.org/

The project in beta mode is here

https://github.com/fbelleau/bio2rdf-queryall

Michel infirm Vincent of the needed modification, then he will be possible to integrate the resolution of the 400 namespace URIs into Bio2RRDF main REST service.

For Uniprot you were trying to resolve http://bio2rdf.org/uniprot_vocabulary:Resource
But seems like you are using UniProt URI : http://purl.uniprot.org/core/Resource
http://uniprot.bio2rdf.org/describe/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.uniprot.org%2Fcore%2FResource&sid=99

I have begun to implement the "QueryAll" like service in beta.bio2rdf.org
For example try to resolve some URI :
curl -i -H 'Accept: application/rdf+xml' http://beta.bio2rdf.org/genbank:BC149752
curl -i -H 'Accept: application/rdf+xml' http://beta.bio2rdf.org/ec:2.7.1.1

There might be some problems with some namespaces, feel free to point it out !

And note that when asking html through content-negociation it returns only the Virtuoso fct describe page for the entity (if it exists)

[micheldumontier]

Vincent,
the redirection to the uniprot endpoint is on the bio2rdf side (not mine). Still, asking for curl -i -H 'Accept: application/rdf+xml' http://bio2rdf.org/wormbase_vocabulary:Resource does not federate over the lsr endpoint, where there is an additional "owl:Class" type assertion.

What's the status on this item?

[vemonet]

Update of the REST service : to resolve a bio2rdf URI the service send a federated query to every bio2rdf triplestore to describe this URI
Deployed on bio2rdf.org

But now the service don't redirect to the virtuoso page when html is asked

ideas for the html rendering to be done

Found a bug due to :

com.hp.hpl.jena.shared.BadURIException: Only well-formed absolute URIrefs can be included in RDF/XML output: <http://> Code: 57/REQUIRED_COMPONENT_MISSING in HOST: A component that is required by the scheme is missing.

This error happens only when Jena try to write the RDF in the RDF/XML format. No problem when it's the n-triple or turtle format.
I think that Jena is more strict with the URI formation when it writes in RDF/XML

[vemonet]

The Jena error is triggered by this triple :

<http://bio2rdf.org/hgnc:4945> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://hgnc.bio2rdf.org> .

[vemonet]

Found out where the problem comes from :
According to Jena http://hgnc.bio2rdf.org is not a valid URI
http://hgnc.bio2rdf.org/ is a valid URI.

[vemonet]

It comes from uniprot endpoint
Note that I was using the latest version of Jena (http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.jena/apache-jena-libs/2.11.2)
And here is the code I was using to convert the triple :

String rdfInput = "<http://bio2rdf.org/hgnc:4945> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://hgnc.bio2rdf.org/> .";
Reader reader = new StringReader(rdfInput);
Writer writer = new StringWriter();
Model model = ModelFactory.createDefaultModel();
model.read(reader,  "default", "N-TRIPLE"); 
model.write(writer, "RDF/XML"); 
System.out.println(writer.toString());
