  • This ontology, called VIR, is an extension of CIDOC-CRM created to sustain propositions on the nature of visual elements and permit these descriptions to be published on the Web. With the term visual element, we refer to those signs identified in the visual space as distinct and documentable units, and subject to an analytical interpretation. The scope of this ontology is to s to provide a framework to support the identification, annotation and interconnections between diverse visual elements and presents and assist their documentation and retrieval. Specifically, the model aims to clarify the identity and the relation of these visual signs, providing the necessary classes to characterise their constituent elements, reference, symbolic content and source of interpretation. VIR expands on key entities and properties from CIDOC-CRM, introducing new classes and relationships responding to the visual and art historical community, specifically building up on the iconographical tradition. The result is a model which differentiates between interpretation and element identified, providing a clear distinction between denotation and signification of an element. As a consequence of such distinction, the ontology allows for the definition of diverse denotative criteria for the same representation, which could change based on traditions and perspective. Visual objects can be, in fact, polysemic and ambiguous, and it is not so easy to pin down a denotative or connotative meaning because they are very much context-dependent. @en
  • This ontology aims at providing a simple vocabulary for describing programmes. It covers brands, series (seasons), episodes, broadcast events, broadcast services, etc. @en
  • The Stories ontology was developed in collaboration with the BBC, with an aim to creating an ontology for narrative representation that could be applied across a diverse set of cases. These included accounts of events in Northern Ireland, the storylines of Doctor Who episodes, and key events of the Battle of Britain. @en
  • This Vocabulary provides the means to create a document which describes a large event or other connected series of events. The primary purpose is to help humans comprehend the programme, not describe absolute truth. A single event (or even series) may have multiple programmes. @en

  • The Media Value Chain Ontology (MVCO) is an ontology for formalizing the representation of the Media Value Chain. It couples naturally with the MPEG-21 multimedia framework, and its standardization as Part 19 of this ISO/IEC standard is underway (at the editing time of this document). @en
  • This ontology deals with the notion of reified events - events seen as first-class objects. @en
  • Creative Workshop Management Ontology (CWMO) - an ontology designed to describe the creative workshop domain, to permit reasoning on creative method and to describe resources gathered inside Creative Support System. The primary goal of the ontology is to cover all knowledge about creative workshop and creative method necessary for Creative support system. The second goal is to provide interoperability between distributed Creative Support System. @en
  • This vocabulary is based on the EPC Information Services Specification http://www.gs1.org/sites/default/files/docs/epc/epcis_1_0_1-standard-20070921.pdf @en
  • Vocabulary for describing common webpages provided by an organisation @en
  • In order to enable and encourage the sharing, distribution, syndication, and aggregation of media content, the authors propose the Media RDF vocabulary, an open standard for distributed media metadata. @en
  • The objective of gUFO is to provide a lightweight implementation of the Unified Foundational Ontology (UFO) [1-5] suitable for Semantic Web OWL 2 DL applications. Intended users are those implementing UFO-based lightweight ontologies that reuse gUFO by specializing and instantiating its elements. There are three implications of the use of the term lightweight. First of all, we have employed little expressive means in an effort to retain computational properties for the resulting OWL ontology. Second, we have selected a subset of UFO-A [1, 2] and UFO-B [3] to include here. In particular, there is minimalistic support for UFO-B (only that which is necessary to establish the participation of objects in events and to capture historical dependence between events). Third, a lightweight ontology, differently from a reference ontology, is designed with the purpose of providing an implementation artifact to structure a knowledge base (or knowledge graph). This has driven a number of pragmatic implementation choices which are discussed in comments annotated to the various elements of this implementation. The 'g' in gUFO stands for gentle. At the same time, "gufo" is the Italian word for "owl". For the source repository, see: <https://github.com/nemo-ufes/gufo> @en
