Using Qualification Instead of Rolification for the Records in Context Ontology (RiC-O). Alexiev, V. January, 2024.
Using Qualification Instead of Rolification for the Records in Context Ontology (RiC-O) [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
The Records in Context Ontology (RiC-O) uses a "Rolification" pattern to derive direct (unqualified) relations from Relation nodes. This involves the use of a "parasitic" self-link on relation nodes (owl:hasSelf) and owl:propertyChainAxiom, which is expensive to implement. Instead, I propose to use the PROV Qualified Relation pattern (associate the direct relation to the Relation class using prov:unqualifiedForm) and implement it with simpler GraphDB rules.
