Abstract

This document defines the Ontology for Media Resource Resources 1.0. We take the The term of ontology "Ontology" is used in its loosest broadest possible definition: a core vocabulary. The ontology for media resources intent of this vocabulary is meant to bridge the different descriptions of media resources on the Web, as opposed to media resources in local archives or musea. It is defined based on resources, and provide a core set of descriptive properties. This document defines a core set of properties which covers basic metadata to describe properties for media resources. Further it defines syntactic and semantic level resources, along with their mappings between to elements from a set of existing metadata formats. The ontology is supposed to foster Besides that, the interoperability among various kinds document presents a Semantic Web compatible implementation of metadata formats currently used to describe the abstract ontology using RDF/OWL. The document is mostly targeted towards media resources available on the Web. Web, as opposed to media resources that are only accessible in local archives or museums.

1 Introduction

This section is informative, except those parts that are explicitly defined as normative. This document defines the Ontology for Media Resource, version Resources 1.0. In this document, the term "ontology" is used in its broadest possible definition: a core vocabulary. The ontology Ontology for media resource describes Media Resources 1.0 is both a core vocabulary (a set of properties describing media resources ) and its mapping to a set of mappings between different metadata formats of currently describing media resources hat describe published on the Web. Mappings to formats for media resources published non available on the Web (as opposed to local archives, museums, or other non-web related and non-shared collections have not been taken into account in this version of media resources). the Ontology. The purpose of these the mappings is to provide metadata representations that describe the characteristics and behavior of media resources in an interoperable manner, set of metadata, thereby enabling different applications to share and reuse these metadata. The vocabulary is defined in this document is based on a core set of properties that defines basic metadata to describe media resources . For example creator is a common property that is supported in several existing metadata formats. Therefore, it is defined as one of the properties in Ontology for Media Resources 1.0 was selected with respect to the core vocabulary of this document. The most commonly adopted set of mappings between this core property and other existing elements from metadata formats can be used to facilitate application interoperability, where the mappings are used to equate the syntactical meaning between the same property that is expressed in different schemata. This builds a bridge between commonly used properties that are defined differently currently in various schemata. use to describe media resources.

Ideally, the mappings defined in this document could be used to would preserve the semantics of a vocabulary term defined in a particular schema. metadata item across metadata formats. In reality, however, this cannot be easily achieved, due to the many and varied differences achieved: there is often a difference in the semantics extension of what is covered by the elements (or terms) from different formats. This means that are associated with each property in a mapping between the mapped vocabularies. The mappings defined in this document are syntactic only, Ontology's property and do not attempt to equate the elements from two different semantics formats that are associated with each property in have such a given difference will not allow a semantic-preserving mapping. For example, the property dc:creator from the Dublin Core and the property exif:Artist defined in the Exchangeable Image File Format, or EXIF are both mapped to the property creator in our ontology. Note, however, that the extension of the property , in the EXIF vocabulary (i.e., the set of values that the property can have) is Ontology. The document therefore also specifies more specific types than the corresponding set of values that this same property can have in the Dublin Core. Mapping mappings: exact, broader or narrower. Nevertheless, mapping back and forth between properties from different schemata, using our ontology only the Ontology defined in this specification as a reference, will hence induce a certain loss in semantics. This is inevitable if we want to improve application interoperability using a simple and lightweight mechanism. In order to avoid Mechanisms for correcting for this loss are beyond the scope of semantics, a more powerful implementation, such as one that uses a rule system that can associate and map different value ranges for a property, would have to be used. In contrast, this document defines a simple and lightweight system that usessyntacticmappings to identify equivalent properties in different schemata. In addition, for each mapping, the mapping is defined as an exact, broader, or narrower mapping between the two properties. document.

The ontology Ontology defines mappings between a set of vocabularies and a its set of core properties in our own namespace, and the elements from metadata formats commonly used to describe media resources. The namespace for the Ontology is http://www.w3.org/ns/ma-ont# , which is identified with the "ma" prefix in this document. Although some of these the properties can appear to be redundant with the Dublin Core set of properties, the set of properties that make up our ontology , there are defined in a new namespace that is separate from the Dublin Core for several reasons, including: differences that distinguish them:

The Media Ontology (i.e. the core set of properties and mappings (i.e., our ontology) defined in this specification) provides the basic information needed by targeted applications (see Use Cases and Requirements for Ontology and API for Media Object Ressource 1.0 ) for supporting interoperability among the various kinds of metadata formats related to media resources that are available on the Web. In addition, the ontology The Ontology is accompanied by an API (see API for Media Resource Resources 1.0 ) that provides a uniform access to all of its elements. Furthermore a Semantic Web compatible implementation of the Ontology is available which is presented in Section 7 of this document. This implementation uses the Semantic Web ontology languages RDF/OWL and its derivation from the core vocabulary is presented in detail with it.

The properties defined in this document are used to describe media resources that are available on the web. Media resources can denote both the abstract concept of a media resource (e.g., the movie "Notting Hill") as well as a specific instance (e.g., a certain file with an MPEG-4 encoding of the English version of "Notting Hill" with French subtitles). For the sake of simplicity, we do not make distinctions between these different levels of abstraction that exist in some formats (e.g., [ FRBR ])

This document contains normative, non-normative, and informative sections. The parts of this document that define the ontology, as well as the syntactic and semantic level mappings between elements from existing formats and the core properties defined in this document, are normative, and are marked as such. For normative sections only, the keywords "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC2119 [ RFC 2119 ]. To facilitate differentiation between the normative use of these terms as defined in RFC2119 and a non-normative use of these terms, the normative use of these terms MUST occur in all capital letters. All other sections, including examples, are not normative.

2 Conformance Requirements

This section is normative.

This document contains normative, non-normative, and informative sections. The parts of this document that define the Ontology, as well as the syntactic and semantic level mappings between elements from existing formats and the core properties defined in this document, are normative, and are marked as such. For normative sections only, the keywords "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" are to be interpreted as described in RFC2119 [ RFC 2119 ]. To facilitate the differentiation between the normative use of these terms as defined in RFC2119 and a non-normative use of these terms, the normative use of these terms MUST occur in all capital letters. All other sections, including examples, are not normative.

A "strictly conforming" application is one that satisfies all "MUST" and "SHALL" provisions in this document. In contrast, a "conditionally conforming" application is one that satisfies all "MUST" provisions in this document, but not all "SHALL" provisions. It should be noted that an application that does not specify all "MUST" provisions in this document is not conforming".

Note: In this specification the use of "Media Ontology" and "Ontology for Media Resources 1.0 " is equivalent.

3 Terminology

This section is normative.

[ Definition : Ontology ]

A formal definition of an ontology is as follows. "An ontology is a formal, explicit specification of a shared, machine-readable vocabulary and meanings, often machine-readable, vocabulary. Its meaning, in the form of various entities and relationships between them, intends to describe knowledge about the contents of one or more related subject domains throughout the life cycle of its existence. These entities and relationships are used to represent some knowledge in the set of related subject domains. a given domain. Formal refers to the fact that the ontology should be representable in a formal grammar. Explicit means that the entities and relationships used, and the constraints on their use, are precisely and unambiguously defined in a declarative language suitable for knowledge representation. Shared means that all users of an ontology will represent a concept using the same or equivalent set of entities and relationships. Subject domain Domain refers to the content of the universe of discourse being represented by the ontology" [ KEUO ]. In this specification, the broadest possible definition of an ontology is used: a shared vocabulary. The vocabulary in question is the list of core properties (relationships) defined in the here (prefixed ma namespace, and the in this document); its machine-readable format is not specified here. This specification provides a simple text description and definition of the relationships. An implementation of in the following section .The vocabulary in used is RDF [ RDF ] will be provided as an example in the appendix of this specification. ]. However, implementations are not limited to using RDF. In particular, implementations Implementations MAY use different formats and still be considered to be conformant with this specification. specification, as long as they comply to the definition of the properties listed in the following section 5 .

[ Definition : Media Resource ]

A media resource is any physical or logical Resource resource that can be identified using a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), as defined by [ RFC 3986 ]) , ]), which has or is related to one or more media content types. Note that [ RFC 3986 ] points out that a resource may be retrievable or not. Hence, this term encompasses the abstract notion of a movie (e.g., Notting Hill) as well as the binary encoding of this movie (e.g., the MPEG-4 encoding of Notting Hill on a DVD), or any intermediate levels of abstraction (e.g., the director's cut or the plain version of the Notting Hill movie). Although some ontologies ( FRBR , BBC ) define different concepts for different levels of abstraction, other ontologies do not. Therefore, in order to foster interoperability, our the ontology defined in this specification does not provide such a classification of media resources.

[ Definition : Property ]

A property is an element from an existing metadata format for describing media resources , or an element from the core vocabulary as defined in this specification. For example, the Dublin Core dc:creator element and the Media Ontology ma:creator creator element are both properties. A property links a Media Resource with a literal value (or or another resource). resource. In the above example, the dc:creator property links a given resource with the value of its creator property. In this example, Dublin Core does this by defining the dc:creator property as follows: "Examples of a creator include a person, an organization, or a service".

Properties can have structured and/or or unstructured values. The set of properties defined in the media ontology Media Ontology core vocabulary is listed in section 4 5 Property definitions .

[ Definition : Mapping]

For the purposes of this document, a mapping is defined as a function that transforms information represented in one schema using one format to information in a different schema that uses a different format. In this document, a set of mappings are defined that equate between a subset of the "in scope" Vocabularies with and the properties of the core vocabulary of the media ontology Media Ontology that is defined in this document. These mappings are presented in section 4.2 5.2 Property mapping table .

[ Definition : Property value types]

Property value types are the data types of the values used in for a property . For example, the property dc:creator can have either string or URI as data types. Property value types are defined in section 3 4 Property value type definitions . They are dependent on XML Schema data types [ XML Schema 2 ].

3 4 Property value type definitions

This section is normative.

Note:

Currently, the data types of property values that used in this document are defined in terms of XML Schema 1.1, part 2.

The Working Group MAY potentially modify these definitions, to ensure compatibility with the return data types defined in API for Media Resources 1.0 s well as the data types defined in the HTML5 W3C Working Draft . Applications that wish to be conformant with this specification MUST use the data types specified in this section for property values that are defined in this specification.

3.1 4.1 URI

"A Uniform Resource Identifier", or URI, is defined in [ RFC 3986 ]. In this specification, the term URI is used, since it is well known. However, the use of this term is extended in this specification to also include "Internationalized Resource Identifiers" (IRIs), as defined in [ RFC 3987 ]. An IRI is a URI that MAY contain non-escaped characters other than ASCII characters. The data type is anyURI . Hence, in this specification, the term "URI" MUST be interpreted to also include IRI.

3.2 4.2 String

A String value MUST be represented using the XML Schema string data type.

3.3 4.3 Integer

An Integer value MUST be represented using the XML Schema integer data type.

3.4 Float 4.4 Double

A Float Double value MUST be represented using the XML Schema float double data type.

3.5 4.5 Date

A Date value MUST be represented using the XML Schema dateTime data type.

4 5 Property definitions

This section is normative; however, examples contained within this section are informative.

4.1 5.1 Core property definitions

4.1.1 Namespace of core property definitions: http://www.w3.org/ns/ma-ont The W3C Media Annotations Working Group has defined a namespace URI, ma-ont, for use with this specification. As specifications that use this namespace URI progress through the standardization process, it is important that each subsequent revision of specifications that use this namespace MUST use the same namespace URI. However, should one or more specifications that use this namespace URI revert to Working Draft status during the standardization process, and a subsequent revision, published as a Working Draft (WD), Candidate Recommendation (CR) or Proposed Recommendation (PR) draft, result in changes that are not backward compatible with the original specifications, the namespace URI (ma-ont) MAY be changed. The ma abbreviation is a prefix for the namespace http://www.w3.org/ns/ma-ont , which identifies the namespace used by this specification. Applications that are compliant with this specification SHOULD use this namespace. 4.1.2 5.1.1 Description of the approach followed for the property definitions

This list of core properties has been defined by creating an initial set of mappings from the list of vocabularies in scope . This mapping table has been constructed by including The core list is a selection of the properties that were supported by the majority of the vocabularies in scope. scope [ findtop10 ].

The ranking of the core properties by expected importance, as determined by the use cases defined in this working group, Use Cases and Requirements for Ontology and API for Media Resource 1.0 , has been used as an additional criterion criteria for defining narrowing down the set of core properties for this specification. The resulting set of properties has been validated by another ranking experiment [ findtop10 ]. This ranking is nearly identical to that chosen by the [ jpsearch ] initiative.

The following information is available for each property:

Several properties in this specification are defined as complex types, consisting of a tuple of attributes. This is used to support qualifiers and optional attributes. Hence, a special syntax has been defined to accommodate this requirement, and is explained below.

All properties names are defined intentionally in singular form and MUST contain only a single value. However, multiple instances of a property MAY be used. In addition, each property MAY have an associated language attribute, which can be used to enable several instances of that property to be defined in different languages.

The following syntax is used for the type descriptions:

  • ( ) (parentheses) are used to group elements indicate a attribute/value pair

  • | (vertical bar) is used to indicate a choice between different possible values

  • { } (curly brackets) are used to define a complex type type, i.e., a tuple of attribute/value pairs

  • ? (question mark) is used to indicate an optional element

Example: contributor { (identifier:URI), (type:String)? (attName="contributor", attValue="URI" | "String"), (attName="role", attValue="URI" | "String")? } is interpreted as a complex type that has two elements. The first serves identifies the function contributor of uniquely identifying a media resource by using an associated URI. a URI or a string. The second serves the function of specifying specifies an optional category, role, which is defined by a string. To indicate this clearly, we enclose each element in parentheses, where the role is placed first, followed by a colon, which is then followed by the element data type; elements Elements are separated by commas, comma separated, and the final collection of elements that make makes up the complex type is enclosed in curly brackets.

4.1.3 Core 5.1.2 Descriptive properties (Core Set)

Descriptive Properties (Core Set)
Name Type definition Description
Identification
ma:identifier identifier { (identifier:URI), (type:String)? } (attName="identifier", attValue="URI") A tuple URI identifying a media resource, which can be either an abstract concept (e.g., Hamlet) or a specific object (e.g., an MPEG-4 encoding of the English version of "Hamlet"), using a URI. The type can be used to optionally define the category of the identifier. See use case 4.4 of the Annotating Media Fragments Use Case document . An example of such a tuple would be {urn:uuid:36a87260-1102-11df-8a39-0800200c9a66, UUID}. "Hamlet").
ma:title title { (title:String), (type:String)? (attName="title", attValue="String"), (attName="type", attValue="URI" | "String"")? } A tuple that specifies the title or name given to the resource. The type can be used to optionally define the category of the title.
ma:language language String (attName="language", attValue="URI" | "String") The language used in the resource. A We recommend to use a controlled vocabulary such as [ BCP 47 ] SHOULD be used. ]. An BCP 47 language identifier can also identify sign languages e.g. using ISO 639-3 subtags like bfi (British sign language).
ma:locator locator URI (attName="locator", attValue="URI") The logical address at which the resource can be accessed (e.g. a URL, or a DVB URI).

(attName="contributor", attValue="URI" | "String"), (attName="role", attValue="URI" | "String")? } A tuple identifying the agent, using either a URI (recommended best practice) or plain text. The role can be used to optionally define the nature of the contribution (e.g., actor, cameraman, director, singer, author, artist, or other role types). The identifier SHOULD be defined as a URI. An example of such a tuple is: {imdb:nm0000318, director}.
ma:creator creator { (identifier:(URI|String)), (role:String)? (attName="creator", attValue="URI" | "String"), (attName="role", attValue="URI" | "String")? } A tuple identifying the author of the resource, using either a URI (recommended best practice) or plain text. The role can be used to optionally define the category of author (e.g., playwright or author). The identifier SHOULD be defined as a URI. The role is defined as plain text. An example of such a tuple is: {dbpedia:Shakespeare, playwright}.
ma:createDate date { (date:Date), (type:String)? (attName="date", attValue="Date"), (attName="type", attValue="URI" | "String")? } A tuple defining the date and time that the resource was created. The type can be used to optionally define the category of creation date (e.g., release date, date recorded, or date edited).

ma:keyword keyword URI|String (attName="keyword", attValue="URI" | "String") A concept, descriptive phrase or keyword that specifies the topic of the resource, using either a URI (recommended best practice) or plain text. The identifier SHOULD be defined as a URI. In addition, the concept, descriptive phrase, or keyword contained in this element SHOULD be taken from an ontology or a controlled vocabulary.
ma:genre genre URI|String (attName="genre", attValue="URI" | "String") The category of the content of the resource, using either a URI (recommended best practice) or plain text. The identifier SHOULD be defined as a URI. In addition, the genre contained in this element SHOULD be taken from an ontology or controlled vocabulary, such as the EBU vocabulary .

(attName="target", attValue="URI" | "String"), (attName="type", attValue="URI" | "String")? } A tuple that identifies a resource that the current resource is related with (using either a URI -recommended best practice- or plain text), and optionally, specifies the nature of the relationship. The identifier SHOULD be defined as a URI. An example is a listing of content that has a (possibly named) relationship to another content, such as the trailer of a movie, or the summary of a media resource.
ma:collection collection URI|String (attName="collection", attValue="URI" | "String") The name of the collection (using either a URI or plain text) from which the resource originates or to which it belongs. The collection SHOULD be defined We recommend to use a URI, as a URI. best practice.

(attName="copyright", attValue="String"), (attName="holder", attValue="URI" | "String")? } A tuple containing the copyright statement associated with the resource and optionally, the identifier of the copyright holder. Other issues related to Digital Rights Management are out of scope for this specification.
ma:policy policy { (policy:URI|String), (type:String)? (attName="statement", attValue="URI" | "String"), (attName="type", attValue="URI" | "String")? } A tuple that contains a description of the security policy that MUST be applied to the media resource, or containing a reference to the security policy (e.g., Creative Commons). This element is defined using statement either human readable as a URI string or plain text. The policy SHOULD be defined machine resolvable as a URI. In addition, URI, and the type attribute can optionally be used of the policy to provide more information as to the nature of the security policy (e.g., permissions, access control, or ownership). policy. See examples .
Distribution
ma:publisher publisher URI|string (attName="publisher", attValue="URI" | "String") The publisher of a resource, defined as either a URI or plain text. The We recommend, as a best practice, to define the publisher SHOULD be defined as a URI.

The units can be optionally specified; if the units are not specified, then the units MUST be interpreted as pixels.
ma:compression compression String (attName="compression", attValue="URI" | "String") The compression type used. For container files (e.g., QuickTime, AVI), the compression is not defined by the format, as a container file can have several tracks that each use different encodings. In such a case, several ma:compression compression instances SHOULD should be used. Thus, querying the ma:compression compression property of the track media fragments will return different values for each track fragment. Note: it Either or both of two values may be supplied: a URI, and a free-form string which can be used for user display or when the naming convention is possible to use an extended lost or unknown. The URI consists of a absolute-URI (RFC 3986 [ MIME RFC 3986 type as ], section 4.3) and fragment (RFC 3986 [ RFC 3986 ], section 3.5), that is, e.g. in the value form absolute-URI#name. The absolute-URI identifies the naming convention used for the second parameter, which is a string name from that convention. A URL is preferred for the URI, and if it is used, it (a) might contain a date in the form mmyyyy, indicating that the owner of the domain in the URL agreed to its use as a label around that date and (b) should be de-referencable, yielding an informative resource about the naming convention. Note that this property, use of URIs with fragments also closely matches RDF (see RDF concepts ). Note that for some container files, the format parameter can also carry an extended MIME type to document this; see [ RFC 4281 ]. ] for one such instance. See examples .
ma:duration duration Float (attName="duration", attValue="Double") The actual duration of the resource. The units are defined to be seconds.
ma:format format String (attName="format", attValue="URI" | "String") The MIME type of the resource (e.g., wrapper or bucket media types). types), ideally including as much information as possible about the resource such as media type parameters, for example, using the "codecs" parameter [ RFC 4281 ].
ma:samplingrate samplingRate Float (attName="samplingRate", attValue="Double") The audio sampling rate. The units are defined to be samples/second.
ma:framerate frameRate Float (attName="frameRate", attValue="Double") The video frame rate. The units are defined to be frames/second.
ma:averageBitrate averageBitRate Float (attName="averageBitRate", attValue="Double") The average bit rate. The units are defined to be kbps.
ma:numTracks numTracks { (number:Integer), (type:String)? (attName="number", attValue="Integer"), (attName="type", attValue="String")? } A tuple defining the number of tracks of a resource, optionally followed by the type of track (e.g., video, audio, or subtitle).

A number of these properties use qualifiers to define subtypes and roles. In particular, these are the properties roles: identifier, title, contributor, creator, createDate, date, relation, collection, policy, fragment and numTracks. In addition, the location, rating, copyright, and frameSize properties use optional elements to define how other element values are measured, or the unit of measure of their values, the ranges that the values of these elements can have, or other supplementary information. All subtype and role qualifiers for these properties are optional. The set of possible values for subtypes is not normative. However, whenever possible, values defined in an existing controlled vocabulary or classification scheme SHOULD be used.

The "type definition" of the policy property would include:

  • policy.statement : A human-readable description of the Policy (string) or an Identifier of the Policy (URI)

  • policy.type : The category of the Policy (URI)

Recommended values for policy.type is the Meta information from the XHTML Vocabulary (http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml/vocab/#)

The copyright would naturally be mapped into policy.statement

4.2 5.2 Property mapping table

4.2.1 5.2.1 Rationale regarding the mapping table

The mappings between the Media Ontology and a subset of the "in-scope" vocabularies of this specification are defined. These mappings specify both the semantic and some elements of the syntactic correspondences between the Media Ontology properties and the properties elements of a given vocabulary. The vocabularies selected were those that were deemed to be the most popular and useful, and which the Working Group had prior expertise concerning their usage. The purpose of these mappings is to provide a proof of concept, as a first step towards the creation of a global mapping list involving all of useful regarding the vocabularies in scope. proposed Use Cases (see Use Cases and Requirements for Ontology and API for Media Ressource 1.0 ).

4.2.1.1 5.2.1.1 Semantic Level Mappings

The presented mappings are uni-directional mappings. This is mappings, because the semantics of the property elements being mapped between from the same Media Ontology and another property may be very different. different across formats. For example, ma:copyright copyright is mapped to both xmpDM:copyright and dc:rights (as part of the XMP standard [ XMP ]); the same property is mapped to exif:Copyright (see [ EXIF ]). Unfortunately, no semantic relationship can be inferred between the properties elements defined in the XMP and EXIF standards. The mappings that have been taken into account have different semantics that have one of the following four characteristics:

  • Exact match: the semantics of the two properties are equivalent in all possible contexts. For example, the semantics of the property ma:title title actly exactly matches the semantics of the property vra:title .

  • More specific: the property of the vocabulary taken into account has associated semantics that contain a superset of the semantics expressed by the property defined in this specification. For example in DIG35 , ipr_names@description and ipr_person@description are both more specific than the property ma:publisher publisher to which they are mapped.

  • More generic: the inverse of the above, meaning that the property of the vocabulary taken into account has associated semantics that is broader than the property defined in this specification. For example, the DIG35 location is more general than the ma:location location property.

  • Related: the two properties are related in a way that is relevant for some use cases, but this relation has no defined and/or commonly applied semantics. For example, in Media RSS , media:credit is related to ma:creator creator .

This list of relations between vocabularies (or informal mappings) and the "Core Media Properties list" is published as a table. Feedback from people or companies actually using the different vocabularies in communities that are currently using the different vocabularies is very welcome; if such feedback is received, then a future version of this specification it will incorporate this feedback be incorporated into the affected mappings. an updated of this specification.

4.2.1.2 5.2.1.2 Syntactic Level Mappings

Syntactic level mappings define the correspondence between two similar properties that have different syntactic expressions, but generally (roughly) similar associated semantics. For example, one important use case is date formatting, where the format of the date and/or time used is different in two vocabularies, but the overall semantics (identifying a date and/or time) is the same.

4.2.1.3 5.2.1.3 Mapping expression

The mapping expression corresponds to the concrete implementation or representation of the mappings defined in the previous paragraph, both at a semantic level and at syntactic one.

SKOS is the acronym (acronym for the Simple Knowledge Organization System, which System) is currently a Recommendation of the W3C Semantic Web activity. It activity which defines a vocabulary for representing Knowledge Organization Systems, such as vocabularies, and relationships amongst them. In SKOS the mapping properties that we take into account in the mapping table are expressed as: skos:exactMatch , skos:narrowMatch , skos:broadMatch and skos:relatedMatch .

A future version of this specification MAY may include additional information after interoperability and/or other feedback mechanisms have been completed. about the properties. For example, it could some restrictions might be possible added to further specify the characteristics and behavior a set of some properties mappings (e.g., if they are symmetric) to enhance more efficient concrete mappings. If such changes are performed, then implemented, every effort will be made to produce a new and revised specification that is backwards-compatible with the current version of this specification.

4.2.2 The 5.2.2 Multimedia metadata formats mapping table tables

The following mappings are established from the Media Ontology's core properties to various multimedia metadata formats. This list of formats is not closed, nor does it pretend to be exhaustive. A future version of this specification MAY may include additional mappings if a need or use case is established for these new mappings.

For each format there is a mapping table with the following columns.

  • MAWG :the name of the property being mapped to, like identifier ,title etc.

  • Relation :the semantic relation. Possible values are: more specific, more general, related, exact, non applicable (N/A).

  • Third column: the name of the format specific property.

  • Spec :the abbrevation of the specification wich defines that property.

  • How to do the mapping :details about the mapping. Not given for all formats.

  • Datatype :the datatype of the format specific property.

  • Required vs Optional :information about optionality. Not given for all formats.

  • XPath :an XPath 1.0 expression pointing to the property in the format. Not given for all formats.

4.2.2.1 5.2.2.1 CableLabs 1.1

For the Cablelabs format the mapping table has the following extra columns.

  • Type (MediaType) :Defines the type of asset that this field refers to in the Cablelabs 1.1 ADI and Content Specs. The type defines whether the asset is a movie, a still or other structure in the whole Video package.

  • Spec :In CableLabs Cablelabs 1.1 ADI and Content Specs there are two specifications (ADI and CONTENT) which apply to the management of the content and the content metadata itself. The AMS refers to the former, the MOD or SVOD refers to the latter - defining the type of service used.

  • Metadata Name :Defines the actual field value of the named field.

frameSize exact The width and height fields from the track header box of that track. moov.trak.tkhd.(track width | track height) If requested for a movie, and there is only one video track, or if requested for a specific video track, the width and height of that track. If the requested movie has more than one visual track, it is calculated as the spatial union of all non-empty track dimensions. Width and height are 32-bit fixed-point integers of the form (16.16) N/A
compression exact The four-character codes from the video sample description/s in the track’s sample description box (see QT file format [ QuickTime ]). moov.track.mdia.minf.stbl.stsd.(sampledescription dataFormat) Follow the box hierarchy inside the movie box, into each video or sound track’s mdia.stbl.stsd, and then extract the 4-character codes from the video sample description or descriptions. four character code(s) N/A
duration exact The duration field from the movie header (overall movie) or track header (for a track), divided by the timescale from the movie header. moov.mvhd.duration or moov.trak.tkhd.duration; divided by moov.mvhd.timescale Find the movie header box (mvhd) and get the timescale field, and then retrieve the duration field from the movie or track header (mvhd, tkhd) as appropriate, and divide. float (after division), rational (as stored) N/A
format exact video/quicktime (valid for all resources) MIME type N/A
samplingRate exact The field sample rate in the version 0 or 1 sound sample description(s) for the movie sound tracks. This is a 16.16 integer with the fractional 16 bits, fractional bits may be non-zero. moov.trak.mdia.minf.stbl.stsd.(sound sample description v0/v1.sampleRate) Follow the box hierarchy inside the movie box, into each sound track’s mdia.stbl.stsd, and locate the sound description. Confirm the sound description version is 0 or 1 before proceeding. Retrieve the 32-bit fixed-point number. 32-bit fixed-point integer of the form (16.16) N/A
exact The field audio sample rate in the version 2 sound sample description(s) for the movie sound tracks. This is a 64-bit floating point double. moov.trak.mdia.minf.stbl.stsd.(sound sample description v2.audioSampleRate) Follow the box hierarchy inside the movie box, into each sound track’s mdia.stbl.stsd, and locate the sound description. Confirm the sound description version is 2 before proceeding. Retrieve the 64-bit double. Double N/A
frameRate more general The sample count from the sample size (stsz) box in the sample table, divided by the duration (see above). moov.trak.mdia.minf.stbl.stsz.sampleCount, divided by duration. NOTE: As frame durations may vary within a track, this is the average frame rate. The frame rate is not guaranteed to be constant. moov.mdia.stbl.stsz.samplecount / (moov.trak.tkhd.duration / moov.mvhd.timescale) Rational, float N/A
averageBitRate more specific or exact Either (a.i) sum the top-level box sizes or (a.ii) find the file size from external means (e.g. file system) or (b) for each track, compute the total sample size (from the sample size table).

6.2 Subtitles and the Ontology for Media Resources

Concerning external subtitles, using relation is the recommended approach. The identifier attribute contains the URL of the subtitle file, and the relation type qualifies it as a subtitle relation. The value should be a URI, but could also be a string. It is recommended to use a controlled vocabulary for the type of the relation.

Embedding of subtitles is not a use case that has been considered, however it is possible. The mechanism used to specify timed metadata is to specify fragments identified by Media Fragment URIs [ MediaFragment ] and then describe annotations of these fragments.

To summarize, there are three options for dealing with subtitles:

  • Link to external subtitle file using fragment, with type subtitle and a Timed Text Markup Language (TTML) [ TTML ] or WebSRT [ WebSRT ] file as target.

  • Subtitles can be embedded in a media file, in which case they can be described as a track media fragment using fragment and Media Fragment URIs [ MediaFragment ].

  • Subtitles could be embedded by using title with a type qualifier for subtitle. A list of time media fragments is defined and each fragment is annotated using title.

Although the last option is a way of embedding subtitles it is not recommended. Instead, a dedicated format such as TTML or WebSRT should be noted used for the subtitles and referenced.

6.3 Semantic annotation

Time based annotations are a possible and the following two cases are covered by the specification:

  • use description for a textual description of the media resource (or a fragment).

  • use relation to link to a RDF file or named graph containing the annotation for the media resource (or fragment).

At the time of writing this specification, there no solution for embedding a set of triples into one of the properties of the Ontology for Media Resources 1.0. The summary of a discussion with the Semantic Web Coordination Group is that named graphs could be a solution to this issue, but there is no standard syntax for expressing them, to which this specification could refer. Such a syntax might find its way into RDF 2.0. Thus the embedding of triples into media annotation elements is excluded until a standard syntax for named graphs is available.

6.4 Captions and signing

Core property definitions section defines a gerenal property fragment with a role attribute to specify the relation between the resource and its fragment, like captioning or signing. In the RDF representation ,this is achieved by defining subproperties of the <tt>ma:hasFragment</tt> property.

Captions and signing of a media resource can be provided in different forms, the most typical being:

  • an application that additional track of the media file,
  • embeded in the video track,
  • as a separate file.

To account for this diversity, the RDF ontology does not link <tt>ma:hasTrack</tt> with <tt>ma:hasCaptioning</tt> or <tt>ma:hasSigning</tt> .The last two can link a media resource to any fragment, e.g. specify all "MUST" provisions a spatial fragment of the video track where the signing is located, or even an external file considered as a fragment of the resource. If the fragment is also a track, nothing prevents to link it with both properties <tt>ma:hasCaptioning</tt> and <tt>ma:hasTrack</tt> .

For example, the following RDF describes a video with embeded signing, subtitles as an external file, and a track containing audio-description (caption for accessibility):

  <video.ogv> a ma:MediaResource ;
    ma:hasSigning <video.ogv#xywh=percent:70,70,90,90>;
    ma:hasSubtitling <./video.srt> ;
    ma:hasAudioDescription <video.ogv?track=subtitle> ;
ma:hasTrack
<video.ogv?track=subtitle>
;

6.5 Language for media resources

The core set of properties proposed in section 5 only defines a single property for specifying the language of a media resource. However, a media resource may have several languages. For example, a video file can have the following languages applying to it:

  • the main spoken language is british english ( <tt>en-GB</tt> ),
  • at some point, a sentence in french is spoken ( <tt>fr</tt> ),
  • the file contains a subtitle track in spanish ( <tt>es</tt> ),
  • the video track contains embedded signing in british sign language ( <tt>bfi</tt> ).

The four language codes could be directly applied to the video file, using the language core property <tt>ma:hasLanguage</tt> in the RDF representation ), but this document would lose a part of the information.

If one wants to keep the complete information, the recommended option is to assign each language to the appropriate fragment of the video, using [ MediaFragment ] to identify them, and the core property fragment <tt>ma:hasFragment</tt> and its subproperties in the RDF representation to link them to the video file itself. In the example above, we would have:

  • the audio track associated with british english,
  • a temporal fragment of the audio track associated with french,
  • the subtitle track associated with spanish,
  • the spatial fragment of the video track associated with sign language.

The corresponding RDF would be:

  <video.ogv> a ma:MediaResource ;
    ma:hasTrack <video.ogv#track=audio>,  
                <video.ogv#track=subtitle>;
    ma:hasSubtitling <video.ogv#track=subtitle> ;
    ma:hasSigning <video.ogv#xywh=percent:70,70,90,90>  .  
  <video.ogv#track=audio> a ma:AudioTrack ;
    ma:hasLanguage [ rdfs:label "en-GB" ] ;
    ma:hasFragment <video.ogv#track=audio&t=10,20> .
  <video.ogv#track=audio&t=10,20>  a ma:MediaFragment ;
    ma:hasLanguage [ rdfs:label "fr" ] .
  <video.ogv#track=subtitle> a ma:DataTrack ;
    ma:hasLanguage [ rdfs:label "es" ] .
 <video.ogv#xywh=percent:70,70,90,90>  a ma:MediaFragment ;
ma:hasLanguage
[
rdfs:label
"bfi"
]
.

7 Namespace and RDF-representation of the Ontology for Media Resources 1.0

This section is normative

This section presents an implementation of the Ontology for Media Resources as a Semantic Web ontology. At first a namespace for the Ontology is defined (Section 7.1). Secondly, an implementation guideline is given which details how the core vocabulary defined in this specification relates to the RDF vocabulary (Section 7.2). Finally Section 7.3 presents an RDF vocabulary which implements the abstract ontology using RDF and OWL. The ontology is a valid OWL2 DL ontology and it can be directly used to describe media resource on the Web in a Semantic Web and Linked Data compatible way. The ontology has been built using standard ontology engineering methodologies in a small expert group inside the MAWG working group.

7.1 Namespace of core property definitions

The namespace of the Ontology for Media Resources 1.0 is defined by this URI: http://www.w3.org/ns/ma-ont# .Applications that are compliant with this specification MUST use this namespace URI.

Note:

As specifications that use this namespace URI progress through the standardization process, they MUST use the same namespace URI. This namespace URI is expected to remain the same throughout the evolution of this ontology, even in the case new properties are added to it, so long as it remains backwards compatible. If however a new version were produced that was not backwards compatible, the WG reserves the right to change the namespace URI.

The ma prefix name is associated with the namespace URI http://www.w3.org/ns/ma-ont# in this document.

7.2 Correspondence between the informal ontology and the RDF representation

The following table gives the correspondence between the core properties as described in the Descriptive properties (Core Set)section and the RDF vocabulary given below.

Unless stated otherwise, atomic values are represented by literals while complex values are represented by resources. It follows that, in the general case, properties with complex values are represented by object properties, while properties with simple values are represented by datatype properties. Attributes in complex values are represented by properties of the resource representing the complex value; depending on their semantics, they are represented by datatype or object properties.

The RDF ontology also introduces a number of classes corresponding to the domains and ranges of the corresponding property.

  • (1) The URI of the RDF node is the identifier.

  • (2) Different values of this attribute should be represented by subproperties of the original property; the RDF ontology provides such subproperties for the most common cases.

  • (3) If the value is a string, the RDF property should point to a blank node with that string as its rdfs:label; if the value is a URI, the RDF property should point to a resource with that URI.

  • (4) The pattern is the same as (3), but the value to consider is that of an attribute of the complex value.

  • (5) This property has no direct correspondence; the properties corresponding to the attributes of the complex value apply directly to the media resource.

        <rdfs:comment rdf:datatype="string">Some ObjectProperties defined by this ontology have no explicit range (e.g. hasClassification or hasGenre). They correspond to properties in the API which can have either a plain string or a URI as their value.
In the case where the only available value for those properties is a string (as in many legacy metadata formats), it is expected that the value of the ObjectProperty is a blank node, having an rdfs:label with the string as its value. For example (in N3):
   <song1.mp3> ma:hasGenre [ rdfs:label "Blues" ] .
Having an ObjectProperty allows, when the corresponding information is available, to express it more precisely, as in:
   <song2.mp3> ma:hasGenre dbpedia:Blues .</rdfs:comment>
