public OntModelUtils()

Method Detail

deconstructOntModel

public static java.lang.String deconstructOntModel(OntModel model)

Converts a OntModel to a String.

Parameters:

model - the model to be converted.

Returns:

the converted String.

constructOntModelForConcept

public static SerializableOntModelImpl constructOntModelForConcept(java.lang.String conceptModel,
                                                                   java.lang.String conceptID)

Converts OWL representation of the concept identify by id into SerializableOntModelImpl.

Parameters:

conceptModel - - the OWL String to be converted.

conceptID - - the id of the concept

Returns:

the generated SerializableOntModel.

constructOntModelForRootInstance

public static SerializableOntModelImpl constructOntModelForRootInstance(java.lang.String instanceModel)

Converts OWL representation of the instance found to be a single root in the model (instance not begin value of any property) into SerializableOntModelImpl.

Parameters:

instanceModel - - the String to be converted.

Returns:

the generated - SerializableOntModel.

minimizeOntModel

public static SerializableOntModelImpl minimizeOntModel(SerializableOntModelImpl bigModel)

Minimize ontology model to the definitions only related to the concept represented by this model

Parameters:

bigModel - the model to be minimize

Returns:

minimized model

trimOntModel

public static java.lang.String trimOntModel(java.lang.String input,
                                            java.util.Set<java.lang.String> allLoadedOntologies)

Removes the ontology concept already loaded into ontology repository, from the given String.

Parameters:

input - the String from which to remove ontologies.

_allLoadedOntologies - the Set of Strings representing names of loaded ontologies

Returns:

the modified String, without redundant ontologies

aggregateOntModels

public static SerializableOntModelImpl aggregateOntModels(java.util.Set<OntModel> ontModelSet)

Return a single SerializableOntModelImpl that is the aggregate of all models in the given set of OntModels

Parameters:

ontModelSet - - Set of OntModel's to be aggregated

Returns:

SerializableOntModelImpl that is the aggregate of the set of models
