question on how rdf is generated without use of ontology

huajun: properties derived from column
... uris created according to user settings

question by satya about how related concepts are found?

huajun: related concepts are defined at ontological level (via properties) - some sort of ranking used to define relatedness

<iv_an_ru> I want to get all properties of http://example.com/heart/

<iv_an_ru> How will you recognize that this is about some specific type(s)

<iv_an_ru> so this is not an IRI of, e.g., user account

<Ashok> Would the SPARQL query be:

<Ashok> SELECT ?x, :?y

<iv_an_ru> I'll ask offline, I'm experiencing blackout
