Domain-Specific Relation

A domain specific relation is a semantic relation that applies to a single domain.

• Context:
  • It can be instantiated as a Domain Specific Referencer, such as a Domain-Specific Relation Mention or a Domain Specific Relation Record.
  • …
• Example(s):
  • An Organism Protein Relation is restricted to the Biology domain.
  • SucceededBy("Jean Chretien","Paul Martin") ⇒ True, where Succeeded(InstanceOf(X,Human),InstanceOf(Y,Human)) and X≠Y and domain is Organizational Management.
  • HeadquarterLocation(Organization O, Location L) if organization $O$ (e.g. Microsoft) is headquartered in location [math]\displaystyle{ L }[/math] (e.g. Redmond).
  • Parent Of(person="Johann Strauss Sr.”, person="Johann Strauss Jr.”).
  • …
• Counter-Example(s):
  • A Domain Independent Relation such as the Meronomy Relation is not domain dependent because it is true across many domains.
• See: Domain Specific Algorithm.

  • QUOTE: … The purpose of the task is to automatically identify relevant domain-specific semantic relations in a corpus of scientific publications. In particular, we search for and classify relations that provide snippets of information such as ”a (new) method is proposed for a task”, or ”a phenomenon is found in a certain context”, or ”results of different experiments are compared to each other”. Identifying such semantic relations between domain-specific concepts allows us to detect research papers which deal with the same problem, or to track the evolution of results on a certain task.
