Classes

Class Description
InformationResource A database or knowledgebase and its supporting ecosystem of interfaces and services that deliver content to consumers (e.g. web portals, APIs, query endpoints, streaming services, data downloads, etc.). A single Information Resource by this definition may span many different datasets or databases, and include many access endpoints and user interfaces. Information Resources include project-specific resources such as a Translator Knowledge Provider, and community knowledgebases like ChemBL, OMIM, or DGIdb.
InformationResourceContainer A collection of information resources

Property Description
agent_type The type of agent that supports an edge or node. This is a general categorization of the type of agent that supports a statement, and is not intended to be a comprehensive description of the agent. For example, a statement may be supported by a single publication, but that publication may contain multiple types of evidence, such as a computational prediction and a manual curation. In this case, the agent type would be "publication", and the evidence would be described in more detail in the evidence graph.
description A free-text description of an entity or attribute.
id A unique identifier for an entity. Must be either a CURIE shorthand for a URI or a complete URI
information_resources a collection of information resources
knowledge_level The level of knowledge that supports an edge or node. This is a general categorization of the type of evidence that supports a statement, and is not intended to be a comprehensive description of the evidence. For example, a statement may be supported by a single publication, but that publication may contain multiple types of evidence, such as a computational prediction and a manual curation. In this case, the knowledge level would be "curated", and the evidence would be described in more detail in the evidence graph.
name A human-readable name for an attribute or entity.
status the status of the infores identifier, the default is "released"
synonym Alternate human-readable names for a thing
xref A database cross reference or alternative identifier for a NamedThing or edge between two NamedThings. This property should point to a database record or webpage that supports the existence of the edge, or gives more detail about the edge. This property can be used on a node or edge to provide multiple URIs or CURIE cross references.

Enumerations

Enumeration Description
AgentTypeEnum The type of agent that supports an edge or node.

In this case, the agent type would be "publication", and the evidence would be described in more detail in the evidence graph.
InformationResourceStatusEnum The status of the infores identifier
KnowledgeLevelEnum The level of knowledge that supports an edge or node. This is a general categorization of the type of evidence that supports a statement, and is not intended to be a comprehensive description of the evidence.
