Hi everybody, Yes, in a lot of cases, in a particular thesaurus, we need to think about the antonym relationship between concepts, which refers to SKOS-Core. However, as Bernard Vatant indicate, we can treat the antonym relation as a sub-property of SKOS:related or SKOS:synonyms. what i want to mention is that for SKOS-Mapping, in most cases, we really need to declare antonym relations between different concepts from different vocabularies, for example, antiradar system Vs. radar. in this case, whether we need to develop a new relationship called "SKOS:antonyms" or donot create any conceptaul connections between them is worth considering. Because in SKOS-Mapping, we can find the mapping relationships defined are just based on equivalence between concepts, such as, exact match, broadmatch, narrowmatch, majormatch, minormatch. It is difficult to derive a antonym relation from these defined inter-mapping relations. Kind regards. Libo Si Departmant of Information Science Loughborough University UK
