Data FAIRport Skunkworks
Common repository access via meta-meta-descriptors and homogenous accessors
What is a FAIRport?
● Findable - (meta)data should be uniquely and persistently identifiable
● Accessible - identifiers should provide a mechanism for (meta)data access, including authentication, access protocol, license, etc.
● Interoperable - (meta)data should be machine-accessible, using a machine-parseable syntax and, where possible, shared common vocabularies.
● Reusable - there should be sufficient machine-readable metadata that it is possible to “integrate like-with-like”, and that component data objects can be precisely and comprehensively cited post-integration.
The Problem
End-user view of “The Problem”
Tissue rejection experimental context. Today, I’m looking for microarray data of human liver cells on a time-course following liver transplant.
What repositories could contain such data?
● GEO? EUDat? FigShare? Dryad? Atlas?
● What fields in those repositories would I need to search, using what vocabularies, to find the microarray studies that are relevant?
Dissecting the problem
There are a lot of repositories!
General Purpose: Dataverse, Dryad, EUDat, Figshare, etc.
Special Purpose: PDB, UniProt, NCBI, GEO, Atlas, EnsEMBL
Dissecting the problem
Lack of harmonized metadata structures, or even rich descriptions of the contents of these repositories, hinders us from (for example):
● knowing where we can look for certain types of data
● knowing if two repositories contain records about the same thing
● Cross-referencing or “joining” across repositories to integrate disparate data about the same thing
● Knowing which repository I could/should deposit my data to (and how)
“Skunkworks” Challenge
If we wanted to enable this kind of FAIR discovery and integration over myriad repositories, what infrastructure
(existing/new) would we need?
If we wanted to enable this kind of FAIR discovery and integration over myriad repositories, what infrastructure
(existing/new) would we need?
Discussions with Tim Clark revealed that the core objectives of Skunkworks were very similar to those of
Force 11 Data Citation Implementation Working Group Team 4 - “Common repository interfaces”
...so we joined forces :-)
“Skunkworks” Challenge
The Solution?
Shared Metadata Descriptors?
They already exist! (e.g. DCAT)
Are not (yet) widely implemented
But are not sufficiently rich......only describe “core” metadata
We need to query richer metadata like experimental context and domain-specific data elements
So... extend DCAT?
So... extend DCAT?
...extend it where?...too many specialist domains & data-types
resistance to harmonization
resistance to implementation(time, money, expertise, ‘just don’t care’)
attempting to impose standards is a Mug’s game!
Common provider-implemented API?

a la TDWG/TAPIR and caBIO...too many specialist domains & data-types

attempting to impose standards is a Mug’s game!
Where else could the solution be?

We need a way to describe the descriptors...
Desiderata of meta-meta descriptors
● Must describe legacy data (i.e. not just DCAT or other “modern” data)
● Must describe a multitude of data formats (XML, RDF, Key/Value, etc.)
● Must be capable of describing any kind of value constraint, e.g. plain text,
numerical, arbitrary CV, rdf:range, or equivalent OWL construct
● Must be modular, identifiable, shareable, and reusable (to stem the
proliferation of new formats)
● Must be hierarchical to allow composite re-use of shared descriptors
● Must use standard technologies, and re-use existing vocabularies if poss.
● Must be extremely lightweight and “trivial” to create
● Must NOT require the participation of the repository host (no buy-in required)
The Solution?(or at least, our best attempt to date!)
Exemplar use-cases:
● A piece of software that can generate a “sensible” data submission form for any repository
(at the Force 2015 meeting a few months ago I gave a presentation of a working example of this… so I won’t repeat that today…)
● A piece of software that can generate a “sensible” query form/interface for any repository
(demonstration of this today!)

(as an aside, This is a document that, we believe, is an implementation of the ISO11179 standard for metadata descriptors; however we have not formally made the mapping between our concepts and theirs. This will happen soon, and this mapping alone is sufficient to become ISO11179-compliant. As such, the Fair Profile Schema is a schema for creating ISO11179-compliant descriptors…)

What a FAIR Profile is:

(also known as a “lens*” over the data)
this is where the FAIRport approach becomes
distinctly powerful!

but first, look at the other FAIRport components
Skunkworks Task #2 - [A]cessible
Are there already access layer definitions?
remind myself to say that many of these components are standalone
you don’t have to implement everything, all at once.
A set of behaviors for providing a unified (albeit simplistic!) access layer for “records” contained in any Web resource
Skunkworks Task #2 - [A]cessible
Are there already access layer definitions?
LDP sits at a URL waiting
GET
Client calls HTTP GETon the URL(that’s all!)
??
LDP communicates with the repository
(how? entirely up to you!)
Repository returns data“about available records”(how? entirely up to you!)
??
LDP returns you anRDF representation of the
list of records’ URLs
<RDF>URL1URL2URL3URL4URL5URL6……...</RDF>
GET URL6
The URLs (should) point back to the LDP server
??
LDP communicates with the repository about that record
??
LDP returns you DCAT Distributions for all
available formats of that record that the repo provides
<RDF>
<dcat:Dist.><format xml> URL6a
<dcat:Dist.><format html>URL6b
</RDF>
You directly call the repository using the URL of
your choice
GET URL6a
Repository returns you the data you requested
Content-type: application/xml
<data><data> Yummy Data Here!</data></data>….
(Note: most repositories already do this part! So we’re half-way there :-) )
The first time I wrote one of these from scratch, it was about 170 lines of code, and took less than 4 hours
(including reading the W3C documentation!)

Live Demo….
http://biordf.org/cgi-bin/RD_Connect/EHDN_Accessor
DISCLAIMER: This demonstration was written during an RD Connect workshop, and the demonstration references various aspects of the RD Connect project (including having ‘RD_Connect’ in the URL). HOWEVER, I am not affiliated with RD Connect, I do not speak for RD Connect in any way, and RD Connect does not endorse any of these ideas, products, behaviours, or anything else presented in this talk. In addition, the data and metadata presented here is all completely fake, and this public demo raises no privacy concerns.
The demo is presented using the Tabulator extension to Chrome, in order to nicely format the RDF for human readability.
These elements are defined by the LDP Specification
A SKOS Concept Scheme describing the “nature” of the data in the repository
Optional - the link to the meta-descriptors of each record in the repository (paginated using HTTP headers defined by LDP)
The Record’s Meta-descriptor
The Record’s Meta-descriptor
Metadata about the record (which metadata is completely at the discretion of the data owner!)
The Record’s Meta-descriptor
Ontological information about the type of record… click through to:
rdf:type SIO:SIO_001027 (Medical Health Record)
The Record’s Meta-descriptor
There are 3 DCAT Distributions for this record
The Record’s Meta-descriptor
Each distribution has its own format and download URL (distributions are completely optional, and up to the provider)
This would also be the place to put license, accessibility, or authentication metadata!
This provides an API-free way of accessing any record in any dataset
Every step is just HTTP GET with standard metadata following the DCAT ontology
Incremental drill-down from repository-level all the way to an individual record
Useful metadata at all levels
Access is 100% under provider-control at all levels
This is NOT intended to be “efficient”!!
However, the alternative is to invent a query API, and then force all repositories to implement it…
Not Gonna Happen!
This is lightweight, and easy to implement
Trade power for (hopefully) wider adoption...

This is the only code that a provider must implement… and much (almost half!) of it is just tag/value definitions
If they don’t want to implement the full set of drill-down behaviors then the code is even smaller!
(This is the actual code - 68 lines - running the demo you just saw. Most of the heavy-lifting is handled by the libraries I published yesterday)

FAIR Projector:
The first time I wrote one of these from scratch, it was about 300 lines of Perl code,
and took about 6 hours (including reading the LDF documentation!)
and it projected three different FAIR Profiles
The next thing on my TODO list is to write libraries to make this easier; however, this is a much trickier thing to do!

it will project the “Allele” slice of that database into three different forms, using 3 different profiles. The demo uses a FAIR Accessor (as described in the previous demo)

This was a very “lightweight” demo, but it showed the point
Same data, different lenses (FAIR Profiles)
In the case of this demo, all three Projections used the same FAIR Accessor
It is obviously more efficient to reach-into the database directly and skip the Accessor altogether. Yes!
However, the point of this demo was to show the “worst case scenario” where you need to FAIR Project
something that you have absolutely no control over

Main features of FAIR Profiles● Do not require repository participation - anyone can write a Profile. Most of
the time it should be possible to write an accessor too, even by screen-scraping!
● Provides a end-user-purpose-driven, potentially non-comprehensive “view” on a repository
● FAIR Profiles of any given repository facet may be different! May use different vocabularies or may interpret fields differently, depending on the needs of the Profile author
● FAIR profiles can/should be indexed and shared (e.g. in a FAIRport Registry), to facilitate cross-repository interoperability and integration
● There is no (obvious) reason why a FAIR profile could not be used to describe the DATA in the repository, not just the metadata… o my Antirrhinum Allele example does exactly that!
● FAIR Profiles can be used both at the “read” and at the “write” end of data publishing… (Force 11 Oxford meeting demo was for “write” interfaces)
Main features of FAIRPort Platform
● GET GET GET!! We didn’t invent any new technology or API :-) :-)
● All components modular, re-usable, and often will be written by 3rd partieso → encourages the creation of an ecosystem of these lightweight,
discoverable little data transformers
● All components identified by URL, and can be “cobbled together” in whatever way a client needs on a particular day (and this can happen automatically!)
● Because everything is identified by a URL, and we only use HTTP GET, components can be “chained” (e.g. the Projector calls GET on the URL of another Projector)
→ i.e. I don’t care how the Projector or Accessor work “under the hood”, it’s all the same GET to me!

Working Examples - One (small) dataset (the Allele slice of my own DragonDB): http://antirrhinum.net An example record in the Repository's native format is here: http://antirrhinum.net/cgi-bin/ace/generic/xml/DragonDB?name=cho;class=Allele
- Three different FAIR Profiles that could be applied to Allele records (from ANY repository) - one with textual descriptions and gene cross-references, the other two with phenotypic images described using the SIO ontology, or the EDAM ontology (respectively). This is the "F" in FAIR, since these can (in principle) be searched and queried in order to find various representations of your data of interest. Profiles are associated - in a many-to-many relationship - with specific repositories via “Projectors” (see below). A Repository may project into many different Profiles, and many Repositories may project their data into the same Profile. * http://biordf.org/DataFairPort/ProfileSchemas/Allele_Profile_Descriptive.rdf * http://biordf.org/DataFairPort/ProfileSchemas/Allele_Profile_EDAM.rdf * http://biordf.org/DataFairPort/ProfileSchemas/Allele_ProfileSIO.rdf
- a "FAIR Accessor" that provides a Linked Data Platform-compliant way to retrieve all of the URIs for the Allele records, as well as their various representations (described as DCAT Distributions). This is the "A" in FAIR. http://antirrhinum.net/cgi-bin/LDP/Alleles
- a "FAIR Projector" that takes the data from the Allele records and "projects" it as RDF that is compliant with whichever Profile you chose. This is the 'I" in FAIR. http://biordf.org/cgi-bin/DataFairPort/DragonDB_LDF_Profiler If you call HTTP GET on that URL, it will report to you what FAIR Profiles it is capable of projecting, using which FAIR Accessor (if any) In this example, all three Projections use an Accesor, and use the same Accessor in each case. This is the ‘worst case scenario’, as it represents the slowest, most roundabout way to access a Repository’s records - it would generally only be used if the Repository provides no externally-facing API of its own ! (that’s why the demo runs so slowly…) I did the demo this way so that everyone could see every component “working together”.
Three “Projections” of the DragonDB Allele Data (note that most of the process above is achieved simply by called GET on the URLs below!!)
