Abstract:
The blending of linked data with ontologies leverages the access to data. GFMed introduces grammars for a controlled natural language targeted towards biomedical linked data and the corresponding controlled SPARQL language. The grammars are described in Grammatical Framework and introduce linguistic and SPARQL phrases mostly about drugs, diseases and relationships between them. The semantic and linguistic chunks correspond to Description Logic constructors. Problems and solutions for querying biomedical linked data with Romanian, besides English, are also considered in the context of GF.
