L'Ontologia degli Under-represented Writers (URW) è un modello semantico che permette di rappresentare informazioni sui Transnational Writers, ovvero autori nati in un paese non Occidentale o appartenenti a una minoranza. L'ontologia si basa sugli Ontology Design Patterns per la rappresentazione degli eventi biografici relativi a questi autori: - il 'Time Indexed Person Status' è derivato dal 'Time Indexed Person Role' e rappresenta la condizione per cui una persona vive in un paese diverso da quello di nascita in un periodo di tempo specifico; - il pattern 'Migration' è modellato a partire dal 'Basic Plan Execution' in quanto una migrazione è rappresentata come una situazione in cui un agente si sposta da un paese all'altro per soddisfare un determinato piano.
The Ontology of Under-represented Writers (URW) is a semantic model aimed at encoding information about Transnational Writers, namely people who was born in a non-Western country or who belong to a minority group. The ontology relies on the ODP framework to represent model biographical events about such writers: - the 'Time Indexed Person Status' is derived from the 'Time Indexed Person Role' and represents the condition of living in a given country during a specific Time Interval; - the 'Migration' pattern, which is modeled on the 'Basic Plan Execution' since a migration is represented as a situation in which an agent moves from a place to another, in order to fulfill a plan.

Endpoint SPARQL: https://kgccc.di.unito.it/sparql/underrepresented
to be used to define the role of an entity within a situation or an event
The meaning expressed by an information object (eg: the text express Fear)
the gender of a person, mapped with the Wikidata property wdt:p21
This property has been created through a property chain derived from DOLCE. It links an "Information Object' to the entity the object refers to. The property chain works as follow: the "Information Object" expressess one or more "Descriptions" that defines the role of a Person. For example, the Wikipedia biography of Chinua Achebe expresses a number of description (eg: being a migrant teacher in the USA) that defined as many roles (eg: migrant teacher) he had through his life
The association of an agent to an activity (eg: writing a novel), mapped from PROV-O
The role of a person related to an activity related to the pubblication of a work (eg: publisher, author, etc)
The attribution of a work to a person (eg: Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart), derived from PROV-O
The birth of a Person, mapped with the Birth class from CIDOC-CRM (https://cidoc-crm.org/html/cidoc_crm_v7.1.1.html#E67)
Derived from DOLCE, within the URW-Ontology it represents all the information extracted from the automatic analysis of raw text from Wikipedia and other sources of knowledge
The description of a person living in a foreign country (eg: "being a foreign student")
The role of a person who lives in a foreign country
The death of a person, mapped with the Death class from CIDOC-CRM (https://cidoc-crm.org/html/cidoc_crm_v7.1.1.html#E69)
the description of a relation between agents, in which one delegates an activity to another
The description of a relation between two entities (eg: the work x developes the themes of the work y), derived from PROV-O
This class is mapped from DOLCE and in the context of the URW Ontology it is used to: (i) define the roles of a person within a situation (eg: the Description "Migrating for economic reasons" results in the role "Economic migrant"; (ii) it was mapped as a super-class for all the PROV-O classes that are used in the expression of qualified influences.
this class is equivalent to the one asserted in DOLCE, according to which it is "any physical, social, or mental process, event, or state."
The creation of an entity by an activity (mapped with PROV-O)
This class is derived from the lexvo.org ontology (https://lexvo.org/ontology#Language), and includes all the entity of the type Language represented with the two-digit ISO language code (eg: en)
Migrating is a sub-class of an Event, which is used within the modeling of the Migration biographical pattern. It is in the setting of a Migration (urw:hasSetting) and it has an Agent as participant (urw:hasParticipant)
The situation in which a person migrates. Such situation is modeled from the Basic Plan Execution ODP
The plan of migrationg, satisfied by the Migration itself. This class iswas derived from the BasicPlanExecution ODP.
The reason of a person to migrate. It defines their role (eg: "economic reson" results in the role "economic migrant"). This class iswas derived from the BasicPlanExecution ODP.
The role of a person who is migrating
a moral value annotated of automatically extracted from raw text. The set of moral values relies on the Moral Foundations Theory (https://moralfoundations.org/)

A Class derived from the National Cancer Institute Thesaurus (http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/NCIT_C19332)
a situation in which a person or a work is awarded or nominated to win a prize
the Pubblication class is modeled on DOLCE and the PROV-O ontologies. The class is used to represent the publication of a cultural item and may contain the following participant, related to the class with the property urw:isParticipantIn: - an edition (see urb:Manifestation) - a TimeInterval - a Place Furthermore, it may also contain a publisher (urw:Organization) to whom is attributed the publication.
The role of an entity within a Situation or an Event, derived from DOLCE
Derived from DOLCE, in the URW Ontology this class is used to represent biographical information (eg: a Birth, a Migration, etc.) or the winning of a prize
This class is derived from the PROV-O ontology, that defines it: "A software agent is running software." In our ontology all models adopted for extracting information from raw text and for mapping different sources of knowledge are urw:SoftwareAgent to whom the resulting portion of KG is attributed (urw:wasAttributedTo)
A time-bounded situation in which a person lives in a different country from their country of birth. Such situation is modeled from the Time Indexed Person Role ODP
