Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present the higher order formalization of RDF and OWL with setting up ontological meta-modeling criteria through the discussion of Russell’s Ramified Type Theory, which was developed in order to solve Russell Paradox appeared at the last stage in the history of set theory. This paper briefly summarize some of set theories, and reviews the RDF and OWL Semantics with higher order classes from the view of Russell’s Principia Mathematica. Then, a set of criteria is proposed for ontological meta-modeling. Several examples of meta-modeling, including sound ones and unsound ones, are discussed and some of solutions are demonstrated according to the meta-modeling criteria proposed.

Fußnoten
2
A class notion in set theories is different from one in ontology descriptions.
 
3
The universe of natural numbers is factually defined as sets of sets that include the empty set as number zero and powersets of sets as number successors.
 
4
In the letter, it is stated that “The system \(\varOmega \) of all numbers is an inconsistent, absolutely infinite multiplicity.”
 
5
Exactly, Russell pointed the paradox in the expression of functions rather than sets, in the letter to Frege (van Heijenoort 1967).
 
6
For example, in Haskell, \([x\uparrow 2\mid x\leftarrow [1..5]]\) produces [1, 4, 9, 16, 25]. (Hutton 2007).
 
7
The set theory in NBG for individuals and sets can be regarded as a sort of first order logic, and then classes can be regarded as first order. However, RDFS can be regarded as much higher order logic as shown at Sect. 3.
 
8
Predicates are functions that return truth value.
 
9
In this paper ‘\(\uparrow \)’ is used to indicate the type of variable instead of colon that is usually used in type theory, as a colon is confusing with the notation for namespace in the syntax of Semantic Web.
 
10
A question arises in the case of no statements of owl:sameAs and owl:differentFrom for atomic nodes in comparison of two different graphs. We proposed the algorithm named UNA for atomic objects in the non-UNA condition. See the motivation and the detail in Koide and Takeda 2011.
 
11
See the simple interpretation 3 in RDF Semantics (Hayes 2004).
