Can you do this with properties on the relationship? In your example a "KNOWS" relationship could have a "how well" property, with values 1 to 100.
You could define "KNOWS_BETTER" as [ 50 < how well < 80 ]. "KNOWS_BEST" as [ 80 <= how well <= 100 ]. I'm not sure what the difference between a "sub relationship" and a "relationship qualified with properties" really is. -----Original Message----- From: user-boun...@lists.neo4j.org [mailto:user-boun...@lists.neo4j.org] On Behalf Of Sourajit Basak Sent: Tuesday, December 06, 2011 6:09 AM To: user@lists.neo4j.org Subject: [Neo4j] Modeling subrelationships in Neo4j Is it possible to create subrelationships in neo4j ? For e.g. a relationship called KNOWS_BETTER as a subrelationship of KNOWS. Do I need to explicitly connect the nodes using both relationships for the traversal to work ? Lets say, I create this neo4j --> KNOWS_BETTER --> graphDB, does this entails the following ? neo4j --> KNOWS --> graphDB. Such a scenario can be modeled in OWL Ontology, wondering if neo4j has any capabilities. Note: Under the hood, most OWL Ontology implementations do create these *extra* inferred links internally. _______________________________________________ Neo4j mailing list User@lists.neo4j.org https://lists.neo4j.org/mailman/listinfo/user _______________________________________________ Neo4j mailing list User@lists.neo4j.org https://lists.neo4j.org/mailman/listinfo/user
