I looked at http://www.udcsummary.info/ and still don't understand your proposal.
1. UDC allows you to express e.g. this: 159.96 Special mental states and processes 61=030.161.1=133.1 Medical documents translated from Russian into French What DBpedia classes would this correspond to? 2. UDC has areas of study, but not specific objects. E.g. you have 737 Numismatics But don't have "coin" vs "hoard" vs e.g. "medal" 3. You have a huge number of classes that don't correspond to objects, eg 581.1 Plant physiology 581.8 Plant histology 581.5 Habits of plants. Plant behaviour. Plant ecology. Plant ethology. The plant and its environment. Bionomics of plan These would just add parasitic weight to a mapping. The different kinds of plants are under 582.32/.998 Plantae (plants) (I guess the complete Tree of Life can be found in UDC, as it can in Wikidata project Taxonomy) 4. You have a good classification of sports under 79 Recreation. Entertainment. Games. Sport And more specifically under 796 Sport. Games. Physical exercises But afaik, you don't have a class SportsTeam, let alone specifics such as BaseballTeam vs SoccerTeam As you say, UDC is for classification of works, most of all on paper (books, articles, papers). IMHO it's not for classification of objects. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Dbpedia-discussion mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dbpedia-discussion
