Good morning Dubrovnik! ESWC 2026 - the 23rd European Semantic Web Conference is starting today. Looking forward to visionary and inspiring keynotes, presentations, and posters, esp. addressing the question on how #SemanticWeb technologies will survive (or even prevail...) the current 3rd wave of #AI

After today's #KDAI2026 lecture on "Basic Machine Learning 01", you will understand why most of what people say about AI in public debate is either wrong, confused, or missing the point — and you will have the tools to do better. If you've ever wondered how Netflix predicts your next binge-watch or how self-driving cars navigate, this is where it all starts.

The OntoWeaver team is proud to release version 1.4 of its tool 🥳

OntoWeaver allows to easily parse iterable data (like tables or documents) and create a Semantic Knowledge Graph. Basically, you write a simple YAML file telling what data you want to be a node or a property, you call a generic command, and 🎉 , you have your graph ready.

With the 1.4 series, the main new feature is an option to display progress bars when doing heavy processing (like loading large CSV files).

The documentation has also been heavily updated, completed and polished:

The OntoWeaver team is proud to release version 1.3 of its tool 🥳

OntoWeaver allows to easily parse iterable data (like tables or documents) and create a Semantic Knowledge Graph. Basically, you write a simple YAML file telling what data you want to be a node or a property, you call a generic command, and 🎉 , you have your graph ready.

We've been using OntoWeaver on a few real use-cases, I think it's now in a pretty good state, and ready for you to use. We recently put a lot of attention on the documentation, with tutorials and a primer about KG for newcomers: https://ontoweaver.readthedocs.io/en/latest

With the 1.3 series, the main new features are:
* `ontoweave` can now load multiple compatible data files at once, for the same mapping, with a classical "shell glob". E.G. `ontoweave data/*.parquet:mapping.yaml`
* OntoWeaver now has the ability to automatically create or extend a BioCypher schema from the mapping (useful if you don't want to type a large but straightforward set of types!).

Get the code at: https://github.com/oncodash/ontoweaver or using `pip`: https://pypi.org/project/ontoweaver/

#Buddhism and #QuantumPhysics both challenge classical views of independent, permanent entities. #Buddhist notions like #DependentOrigination and #emptiness hold that phenomena lack inherent essence and exist only relationally. #QM shows #reality as probabilistic & context-dependent, w properties emerging through interaction. Though methodologically distinct, both unsettle substance-based #ontologies and stress the relational nature of existence.

@gamingthepast I promised an email, but maybe it makes sense to go public with my thinking way before I know what I am talking about. I think I am reflecting on a more meta, possibly, ontological level. That is, rather than having students understand the specificities of historical events/processes, I’d want them to analyse through play the “generalities”. For example, we have been discussing #environing, that is the process through which environments are materially, simbolically, intellectually made. This has led us to very roughly draft a RPG (we only had 90 mins) where the central element is the world-making. Different playing actors have different relationships with the environment, one could say even different #ontologies and their game experience will depend on how these “world views” interact. Think #SmallWorld or #Root but open ended. After reading your latest toot I began to think of this as the Ontological Problem Space 😅 Let’s see where this goes in this year’s session

This week, our colleagues Hossen Beygi Nasrabadi and @joerg participated (and co-organised) the Platform Material Digital Hackathon at Bundesanstalt für Materialprüfung (BAM) in Berlin. Goal was to make progress on the next version of the PMDco ontology, a mid-level ontology for materials science engineering.

The MatWerk ontology MWO 3.0 is based on BFO2020, IAO, and PMDcore 3.0. It serves as a domain-level ontology representing (research data) resources of the NFDI-MatWek consortium.

We are contributing to the design and implementation of the PMDcore ontology, focussed to represent the entire domain of materials science - as well as to MatWerk Ontology, which is based on NFDIcore ontology (also provided by our group) to represent research data from the NFDI-MatWerk consortium. All ontologies are BFO2020-compliant.
