Yoni; Yes, there are ways to do this. It really depends on how you
have set up your ontology. I take it the relations you want, for
example, are:
:Mary :hasParent :Beth
:Beth :hasChild Mary
I'm not entirely clear, but it seems to me that you have all of
the :hasChild relations set up and want to fill in the :hasParent
relations in one action?
If so, there are a few ways to do this. One is to define ":hasChild
owl:inverseOf :hasParent" and run inferences. The following query
also does the same thing:
CONSTRUCT
{ ?child :hasParent ?parent .
}
WHERE
{ ?parent :hasChild ?child .
}
You can then assert the inferences.
