ROBOT: A command-line tool for ontology development

摘要

ROBOT is a command-line tool for working with ontologies, especially Open Biomedical Ontologies. It builds on OWLAPI and is designed to eventually replace Oort and many functions of OWLTools. Currently implemented commands include: reporting on differences between ontologies, merging ontologies, extracting ontology modules, filtering ObjectProperties, and reasoning. Commands can be chained together to form powerful, repeatable workflows. ROBOT is in early development but is available for use under an open source (BSD) license.
