Hi All, I have been looking for an ontology that organizes and describes possible characteristics or attributes for common entity types, such as what might be found in a key-value pair in Wikipedia infoboxes and such. I have had no luck finding such a vocabulary or ontology. The closest representation I found was one related to sensors and the Internet of Things (IoT) [1]. The Wolfram Language also has an interesting structure around units [2]. Biperpedia has recently been discussed by Google [3], but no actual ontology or structure yet appears available for inspection. Does anyone know of a general ontology for capturing record/entity attributes or characteristics (properties)? I know some domains like biomedical may have partial approaches to this, but I'm seeking something that has as its intent being a general-purpose attribute reference. Suggestions or pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike [1] http://eprints.eemcs.utwente.nl/23734/01/CICARE2013_-_Brandt_et_al_-_Semantic_interoperability_in_sensor_applications_-_final_version.pdf [2] http://reference.wolfram.com/language/guide/Units.html [3] http://infolab.stanford.edu/~euijong/biperpedia.pdf
