DESCRIPTION

When using units and quantities in equations or in text, ambiguity in the use of symbols may exist, especially if a (quantitative) text is read by someone who is not an expert in the field. Symbols for one quantity or unit used in one field of research may overlap symbols used in other fields of research. The Ontology of units of Measure (OM) aims to disambiguate the use of quantitative information in text. This presentation shows how semi-automatic annotation of text can be used with OM to disambiguate quantitative information not only in text but also in other formats such as excel sheets.

of information that are often used. These commands are either defined in the mainLATEX source file or in style files which can be imported into the main LATEX file.

In this paper we present a LATEX package (as a set of style files) that uses terminol-ogy as offered through our ontology platform wurvoc.org.

3.1 Ontology of units of Measure and related concepts (OM)

The ontology that we use to refer to in the LATEX files is OM. OM is an ontology basedon older ontologies of units of measure, such as EngMath by Tom Gruber [18]. Inearlier work [16] we have compared OM, EngMath and other ontologies, and OM ap-peared to be the most extended ontology, e.g. defining the most of the relevant con-cepts in the quantitative domain, such as “quantity”, “unit of measure”, “dimension”,“measure”, “measurement scale”, etc.

OM defines concepts such as unit, quantity and dimension. Quantities are re-lated to units of measure and measurement scales that can be used to express themusing the relation \unit_of_measure. Units of measure are defined by some observ-able standard phenomenon, such as the length of the path travelled by light in a vac-uum during a time interval of 1/299 792 458 of a second, for meter. Measures, suchas “3 kilogram” are used to indicate values of quantities. Multiples and submultiplesof units have a prefix, such as in kilogram and millimetre.

Systems of units organise quantities and units of measure, e.g. the InternationalSystem of Units (SI). Such a system defines base units and derived units. Base unitsare units that cannot be defined in terms of other units (e.g. metre and second).Base units can be combined into derived units, such as for example metre per sec-ond (ms°1).

OM is based on a semi-formal description of the domain of units of measure,drafted from several paper standards that we have analysed, e.g. the Guide for theUse of the International System of Units [19], by the NIST. For a full list of statements,the sources that we have used, and ontological choices made, see previous work [16].

OM is modelled in OWL 2 [20]. The ontology is published as Linked Open Data [21]through our vocabulary and ontology portal wurvoc.3 OM can be used freely underthe Creative Commons 3.0 Netherlands license.

3.2 Aliases in LATEX

When using LATEX it is often preferable to create aliases for often used (complex) com-mand structures instead of retyping these command structures again and again.

For instance, LATEX source code becomes more difficult to interpret when unitsare used in an equation. To create a statement like:

G = 6.673£10°11 Nm2 kg°2 (1)

which is the gravitational constant, the following LATEX source code can be used:

3 http://www.wurvoc.org/vocabularies/om-1.8/. The objective of wurvoc.org is to publishvocabularies and associated web services relevant to the general domain of physical unitsand quantities and in particular the domains of life sciences and agrotechnology. In wurvocone can browse vocabularies and directly interface with them.

where T = 170K is the temperature of the GMC, µmH = m = 3.7£ 10°27 kg is the mean mass, andΩ = 5.0£10°20 kgm°3 is the (uniform) density. This gives a Jeans mass of:

ii) If the cloud is supported only by its thermal kinetic energy, will it be stable or will itcollapse?If the GMC is only supported by its thermal kinetic energy, it will collapse if the mass of the cloud islarger than the critical mass, the Jeans mass (see course notes, page 3.18). The mass of the cloud isMGMC = mH2 +mHe = 5£104 MØ. The mass of the GMC is larger than the Jeans mass, it will thereforecollapse if it is only supported by its thermal energy.

d) Suppose now that the cloud also has bulk turbulence and magnetic field such thatthere is equipartition of energy, ©=Um = J .

i) Calculate the critical mass for collapse in this case.

COMMIT/ E-FOODLAB

All LATEX commands representing quantities and units can also be used with userdefined symbols simply by adding an (optional) parameter to a command. For in-stance, the command \LuminousFlux produces the symbol for the quantity lumi-nous flux ’F ’ with a link to the related concept (om:Lumious_flux) in the OM ontol-ogy. If the author wants to use another symbol to represent luminous flux, he or shecan achieve this by specifying the alternative symbol as an argument:\LuminousFlux[\Phi] produces ’©’, still linked with the same concept in the OMontology. If desired sub- and superscripts can also be used in the argument:\LuminousFlux[F_{\lambda}] produces ’F∏’, again linked with the same URI.

3.4 URI and equation extraction

When using the typesetting tool pdflatex to create PDF files from the LATEX source,the URIs representing the unit and quantity concepts are inserted as hyperlinks intothe PDF. To use these annotations we have to parse the PDF files to find the hyper-links (URIs). Using Apache’s PDFBox http://pdfbox.apache.org/ we were able tocreate a small Java tool to parse the PDF files and extract the URIs representing con-cepts in OM and linking these URIs to the text.

Using this setup we are able to extract OM concepts (units and quantities) from atext generated with OM-annotated LATEX. We would, however, also like to extract thesemantics of statements like V = 15.2m3 (i.e. we would like to extract the fact thatthe quantity volume has a value of 15.2 in units of cubic metre). To this end we havealso added the functionality of finding binary (=, <, >, º, etc.) relations in the text tothe extraction tool.

When a PDF is parsed by the extraction tool, URIs for units and quantities, nu-meric values and binary relations are tagged in the text. Operators, like \E are alsorecognised, and in the case of exponents, the value is changed accordingly (e.g. 5.2£103 is changed to 5200). The tool then applies rules to find patterns in the text like:

[QUANTITY] [BINARY_RELATION] [VALUE] [UNIT]

If the tool comes across such a pattern, the combination of quantity, relation, value,and unit is stored. For instance the equation:

Ek = 1.209£10°2 eV (3)

is extracted as:

1 [QUANTITY=om:Kinetic_energy] [BINARY_RELATION=’=’]2 [VALUE=�.�12�9] [UNIT=om:electronvolt]

In this manner quantitative statements can be extracted from PDF generated withOM annotated LATEX.

3.5 Transformation to RDF

The result of the extraction can then be transformed into RDF statements using theOM ontology. For instance, the following equation

F = 15.2N (4)

where mm and mq are prefixes for custom defined namespaces (possibly pointing tothe URI for the original text, thereby ensuring provenance) for measures and quanti-ties respectively, and om is the prefix for the OM namespace. This statement can alsobe visualised as a graph (Figure 1).

The current extraction tool is not only able to create the statements to model theequation in RDF, but it is also able to export these RDF statements to an RDF triplestore, where it can be combined with other semantic data extracted from the PDF, orobtained from other sources.

4 Real-world examples

The number of detected measures depends on the type of paper; experimental pa-pers tend to contain more measures than theoretical papers. For example the fifthpage of a paper on water vapour sorption in gluten and starch films contains thefollowing text:

[...] The obtained parameter values for starch films (T g = 540±10K and¢Cp =0.32 ± 0.02Jg°1 K°1) differ from the values obtained by van der Sman and
