Creating Facebook Ontology from real data

Abstract

Nowadays is probably every one of us registered at various social networks. These social networks are gathering information about us but only few of them provide a service for checking what data are being held about us. This paper describes creating semantic layer for such a tool; deals with Facebook Graph API, Semantic Web technology, OWL and describes the Facebook Ontology: a formal framework handling Facebook profile-related information including profile's edges like albums, videos, events, etc. The paper also shows how to deploy this ontology on triple store and how to query it for requested knowledge.
