             Summary: Freebase owl:samAs processor
                 Key: STANBOL-1034
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STANBOL-1034
             Project: Stanbol
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Entityhub
            Reporter: Rupert Westenthaler
            Assignee: Rupert Westenthaler


Freebase does not link any linked data set, but uses Freebase keys to represent 
IDs used for an Freebase entity within other data sets. However it does not 
support direct links to URIs of Entities in other datasets.

In addition Freebase uses a special encoding for keys [1]. Therefore key values 
need 

This processor will include support for generating owl:sameAs links to DBPedia 
as well as Musicbrainz but may be extended to additional datasets in the future.

DBPedia linking:
-----

Freebase does not link to DBPedia, but provides links to Wikipedia. But because 
DBPedia does use the same local names as Wikipedia this is not a problem. 
Freebase provides links to all Wikipedia languages. The mapping will prefer 
links to the English language version. Only for Entities where there is no link 
to the English version it will consider other language versions.

Freebase often links several Wikipedia pages (of the same language) to a 
Freebase entity. Most often those versions are only redirected pages on 
Wikipedia. Because of that the linking will try to link only to the main page. 
This is determined by taking the name of the Freebase entity; replacing ' ' 
with '_' and looking if a key for that value exists. If this is not the case 
all links are included.

Musicbrainz linking:
------

Freebase provides musicbrainz.org IDs as keys. However to provide correct links 
based on those IDs one needs to also consider the type of the Entity as 
musicbrainz uses the types in for URIS - e.g.

    http://musicbrainz.org/recording/71158621-b261-4d3f-8b35-592014dc1fbb
    http://musicbrainz.org/release/f3c72169-6a7e-4594-a507-23360652f59c
    http://musicbrainz.org/artist/a4d486bd-6020-4a36-9c7d-bf5ce174bcd1

The following mappings between Freebase types (rdf:type) and musicbrainz type 
names do exist

    recording => http://rdf.freebase.com/ns/music.recording
    artist => http://rdf.freebase.com/ns/music.artist
    release => http://rdf.freebase.com/ns/music.release

Configuration:
----

The configuration will allow to enable/disable the mappings for dbpedia and 
freebase
