Appendix B: The i2 Semantic Approach • Naming custom link semantic types There is also a convention for naming custom link semantic types. Use short statements that can be read along with the entity types at the end of the links. For example, naming a custom link semantic type Associate Of allows you to read the entity-link-entity combination as Person A associate of Person B. Avoid using the entity type names at the end of a link as part of the link type name. For example, avoid giving a link type that links a person to a vehicle the name Person-Vehicle. Instead use a name such as Is Registered Keeper Of, or Is Driver Of. Notice again the use of a verb to indicate that a link is directional, that is a person entity is the driver of a car and not vice versa. Symmetric (that is non-directional) links will not need a verb but should still be assigned a sensible name. • Property semantic types must be unique within an entity, link or data record You can only assign a property semantic type once within a given entity, link or data record. There are instances when you may want to assign the same semantic type to two or more properties within an entity, for example multiple aliases or multiple forename properties. In these cases, we advise you to define custom semantic types for these properties with _1, _2, _3, and so on, appended for each custom semantic type beyond the first. In some circumstances, the power2 products automatically define custom semantic types to avoid duplicating the semantic type names; in this instance they use this same naming convention. Sharing custom semantic types There is a mechanism within power2 products that allows you to share custom semantic types between data sources. If you are using multiple data sources, it is vital that you use this mechanism in order for semantics to work correctly. You share custom semantic types by exporting them to a custom semantic type library in the form of an .mtc file. This file can be loaded into other data sources so that the same custom semantic types can be assigned across all of the different data sources. This is the only way to use the same semantic types; it is not enough to just define a new type in your second data source and assign it the same name. Although their names will be the same, their unique identifiers will be different when the two data sources are combined. The end result will be a duplicate semantic type and the data cannot be aligned. For example, when assigning semantic types to data source A, you may find that you need to derive a custom semantic type for people giving evidence. You define a custom semantic type called Witness derived from the Person semantic type. You then move on to data source B and find that you also need the same Witness custom semantic type. If you define a new custom semantic type in the data 364 i2 Analyst’s Notebook 7 User Guide: Customizing & Analyzing
Appendix B: The i2 Semantic Approach source B called Witness, when both data sources are used together, two custom semantic types will exist; Witness and Witness_1. These two custom semantic types will not be considered the same and therefore when using (for example) Visual Search, the user will not be able to search on both at the same time. i2 Analyst’s Notebook 7 User Guide: Customizing & Analyzing 365
