Ingest/pipelines: problem definition• Data is coming in faster, in greater volumes and outstripping our ability to perform
adequate quality control
• Data is being used in new ways and we frequently do not have sufficient information on what happened to the data along the processing stages to determine if it is suitable for a use we did not envision
• We often fail to capture, represent and propagate manually generated information that need to go with the data flows
• Each time we develop a new instrument, we develop a new data ingest procedure and collect different metadata and organize it differently. It is then hard to use with previous projects
• The task of event determination and feature classification is onerous and we don't do it until after we get the data

• Who (person or program) added the comments to the science data file for the best vignetted, rectangular polarization brightness image from January, 26, 2005 1849:09UT taken by the ACOS Mark IV polarimeter?
• What was the cloud cover and atmospheric seeing conditions during the local morning of January 26, 2005 at MLSO?
• Find all good images on March 21, 2008.• Why are the quick look images from March 21,
2008, 1900UT missing?• Why does this image look bad?

Provenance• Origin or source from which something
comes, intention for use, who/what generated for, manner of manufacture, history of subsequent owners, sense of place and time of manufacture, production or discovery, documented in detail sufficient to allow reproducibility
• Knowledge provenance; enrich with ontologies and ontology-aware tools
Semantic Technology Foundations
• PML – Proof Markup Language – used for knowledge provenance interlingua
• Inference Web Toolkit – used to manipulate and access knowledge provenance
• OWL-DL ontologies (including SWEET and VSTO ontologies)

Inference Web Explanation Architecture
• Semantic Web based infrastructure• PML is an explanation interlingua
– Represent knowledge provenance (who, where, when…)– Represent justifications and workflow traces across system boundaries
• Inference Web provides a toolkit for data management and visualization
Global View and More
• Explanation as a graph• Customizable browser options
– Proof style– Sentence format– Lens magnitude– Lens width
• More information– Provenance metadata– Source PML– Proof statistics– Variable bindings– Link to tabulator– …

• (preliminary) simple trust representation
• Provides colored (mouseable) view based on trust values

Selected IW and PML Applications• Portable proofs across reasoners: JTP (with temporal and
context reasoners (Stanford); CWM (W3C), SNARK(SRI), …
• Explaining web service composition and discovery (SNRC)• Explaining information extraction (more emphasis on
provenance – KANI, UIMA)• Explaining intelligence analysts’ tools (NIMD/KANI)• Explaining tasks processing (SPARK / CALO)• Explaining learned procedures (TAILOR, LAPDOG, /
CALO)• Explaining privacy policy law validation (TAMI)• Explaining decision making and machine learning (GILA)• Explaining trust in social collaborative networks (TrustTab)• Registered knowledge provenance: IW Registrar
(Explainable Knowledge Aggregation)• Explaining natural science provenance – VSTO, SPCDIS,

PML1 vs. PML2• PML1 was introduced in 2002
– It has been used in multiple contexts ranging from explaining theorem provers to text analytics to machine learning.
– It was specified as a single ontology
• PML2 improves PML1 by – Adopting a modular design: splitting the original ontology
into three pieces: provenance, justification, and trust• This improves reusability, particularly for applications
that only need certain explanation aspects, such as provenance or trust.
– Enhancing explanation vocabulary and structure• Adding new concepts, e.g. information• Refining explanation structure
PML Provenance Ontology• Scope: annotating
provenance metadata• Highlights
– Information– Source Hierarchy– Source Usage
Referencing, Encoding and Annotating a Piece of Information
• Referencing a piece of information – using URI
• Encoding the content of information– Complete Quote:
<hasRawString>(type TonysSpecialty SHELLFISH) </hasRawString>– Obtained from URL:
<hasURL>http://inference-web.org/ksl/registry/storage/documents/tonys_fact.kif</hasURL>
• Annotations – For human consumption:
<hasPrettyString>Tonys’ Specialty is ShellFish</hasPrettyString>
– For machine consumption• Language:
<hasLanguage rdf:resource="http://inference-web.org/registry/LG/KIF.owl#KIF" /> • Format:
<hasFormat "http://inference-web.org//registry/FM/PDF.owl#PDF" />
Source Hierarchy• Source is the container of information• Our source hierarchy offers
– Many well-known sources such as• Sensor (e.g. geo-science)• InferenceEngine (e.g. reasoner)• WebService (e.g. workflow)
– Finer granularity of source than just document• DocumentFragment (for text analytics)
Source Usage• Source Usage
– logs the action that accesses a source at a certain dateTime to retrieve information
– is part of PML1
• Example: Source #ST was accessed on certain date
<pmlp:SourceUsage rdf:about="#usage1"> <pmlp:hasUsageDateTime>2005-10-17T10:30:00Z</pmlp:hasUsageDateTime> <pmlp:hasSource rdf:resource="#ST"/></pmlp:SourceUsage>
PML Justification Ontology• Scope: annotating
justification process• Highlights
– Template for question-answer/justification
– Four types of justification
Four Types of JustificationGoal conclusion without justification
Assumption conclusion assumed (using Assumption Rule) asserted by an InferenceEngine, no antecedent
Direct Assertion conclusion directly asserted (using DirectAssertion rule) by an InferenceEngine, no antecedent
Regular conclusion derived from antecedent conclusions
PML Trust Ontology• Scope: annotate trust and
belief assertions• Highlights
– Extensible trust representation (user may plug in their quantitative metrics using OWL class inheritance feature)
– Has been used to provide a trust tab filter for wikipedia – see McGuinness, Zeng, Pinheiro da Silva, Ding, Narayanan, and Bhaowal.
