Classes

abnormal organic morphology qualityc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#AbnormalOrganicMorphologyQuality

Note that AbnormalOrganicMorphology includes subclasses (e.g. vph-g:Wound) that intuitively may seem to be a CorpuscularObject or OrganicObject. Note however that Wound is a condition that inheres in some Human and denotes the absence of or damage to some tissue. As such, it can not be an Object.
Editorial: AbnormalOrganicMorphologyQuality is BiologicalQuality which may inhere in some Organism as a result of e.g. some InjuringEvent, PathologicalProcess or the existence of some DiseaseOrSyndrome in that Organism.
Example
Examples: a bone being broken, a wound, an ulcer, a pimple, a blister, etc.

AbsenceQuality is a RelationalQuality that describes the (temporal) absence of some entity in relation to some other Entity.
has super-classes
relational quality c
has sub-classes

abstract qualityc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#AbstractQuality

Note that Qualities may also inhere in other Qualities. For instance, if John has a PressureUlcer (a BiologicalQuality), then some additional quality such as vph-g:MedicalRatingQuality can be used to indicate the stage or severity of the ulcer according to some vph-g:MedicalClassificationSystem.
Editorial: AbstractQuality is a Quality that inheres in NonPhysicaEndurants and other Qualities.
has super-classes
Quality c
has sub-classes
financial value quality c, normative quality c

abstract rolec back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#AbstractRole

Loebe (2007): Abstract roles can be functionally characterized in a uniform manner, namely as a mechanism of viewing some entity – namely the player – in a defined context, i.e., in a more complex entity with interrelated other “notional components”. Put differently, players of abstract roles are looked at in an external manner in contrast to viewing them as self-contained entities focusing on their internals like their properties or parts.
has super-classes
role c
has sub-classes
food role c, freedom restriction role c, poison role c, preventive role c, symptom role c

abstract valuec back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#AbstractValue

Instances of AbstractValue are atomic regions or qualia in some value space. Our conception of AbstractValue comes close to dul:AbstractRegion where the focus is on the region, not the qualia. Due to this difference, we defined no mapping from this class to DOLCE.
Editorial: Instances of AbstractValue express values of abstract qualities such as EducationLevel, EmotionalState and SeverityOfMedicalCondition.
has super-classes
quality value c
has sub-classes
financial value c, normative value c, subjective value c

AbstractParticularc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#AbstractParticular

As an example: the idea of the number *14* is an AbstractParticular that has no inherent attributes that extend in time or space. Note however that '14' can be a specific value of some attribute at some time, meaning that the idea of *14* is 'materialized'.
DOLCE: The main characteristic of abstract entities is that they do not have spatial nor temporal qualities, and they are not qualities themselves.
has super-classes
particular c
has sub-classes
quality value c, unit of measure c

abusive eventc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#AbusiveEvent

Note that this class is for all events that: a.) can be regarded as abusive within some context and following some interpretation (e.g. 'pushing someone', 'scolding someone'); b.) are intrinsically abusive ('stabbing someone'). Also note that some events associated with AbusiveEvent can be regarded as a violation of the law followed by e.g. prosecution (e.g. 'rape').
Editorial: AbusiveEvent is an Event where some Human intentionally and willfully carries out some action on another Human with the intention to cause some form of harm, directly on indirectly, to that other Human.
has super-classes

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#ActivitiesOfDailyLifeValue

For an extensive set of standardized and descriptive values such as 'does not shower self', 'difficulty feeding self', 'does perform dressing activity', we refer to SNOMED. Alternatively, values as defined and standardized in the Barthel Index may be used. Note that this Barthel Index has been modeled as an instance of vph-g:MedicalClassificationSystem.
Editorial: Instances of ActivitiesOfDailyLifeValue express whether and/or to what degree some Human is capable to execute actions associated with self care
has super-classes
biological value c

activities of daily living capabilityc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#ActivitiesOfDailyLivingCapability

Note that we do not model any specific capabilities associated with activities of daily living in VPH. Instead, we refer to existing domain-specific sources for these, such as e.g. SNOMED, the Barthel Index and the Dutch ZIB. -Specific actions such as 'eating' and 'taking a shower' in the ZIB can be considered as subtypes of vph-g:ActivitiesOfDailyLivingCapabilities. The specific functional scores for these activities can be modeled as vph-g:ActivitiesOfDailyLivingValue using the quality region pattern. -In SNOMED, a set of abilities related to daily living are best represented by 'Activity of daily living' that refers not to actions but the capability to perform these actions. See the mapping for the URI. -In SNOMED, a set of specific set of values are modeled as subclasses of 'Finding of functional performance and activity', and more specifically 'Finding of activity of daily living' e.g. 'able to feed self' and 'able to perform dressing activity'. These should be modeled as instances of vph-g:ActivitiesOfDailyLivingValue, NOT as subtypes of this class. -The Barthel Index is modeled as an instance of vph-g:MedicalClassificationSystem. see also: https://zibs.nl/wiki/BarthelIndex-v3.1(2020NL)#9228 and vph-g:ActivitiesOfDailyLivingValue.
Editorial: ActivitiesOfDailyLivingCapability is a BiologicalQuality that characterizes whether and/or to what degree some Human is capable to execute actions associated with self care and self sustenance such as 'taking medications' and 'brushing teeth'.

administrative content developmentc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#AdministrativeContentDevelopment

Note that Document encompasses physical and digital objects. Also note that vph allows to distinguish some administrative event from the possible resulting document and from the content of that document. For example: 'registering (a new patient)' is considered vph-g:AdministrativeContentDevelopment that unfolds in time and has only temporal parts. The result of this event may be some physical or digital Document. This Document may bear some content, modeled in this ontology as an InformationObject. If someone would like to query for 'how often something is registered during some time period', one can ask for: 1.) registration event (there were five distinctive events in which the e.g. the happiness of the patients has been registered.) and/or 2.) the number of Documents that were the result of this registration event: (there are eighty individual registrations on patient happiness.) While the actual content of those Documents is a vph-g:InformationObject.
Editorial: AdministrativeContentDevelopment is the subclass of ContentDevelopment where some ContentBearingObject is created for administrative purposes.

artifactc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#Artifact

In general, we consider all human-made PhysicalObjects to be an Artifact, where 'making' has some intentional aspect. The result of the making may be an unwanted or unsuccesful product. As such, 'intentional' does only imply that some decision preceded the making process. Note that other Artefacts such as machines can be involved in the making of another Artefact. In the definition, we deliberately stated that CognitiveAgents and not only Humans need to be involved in the making of some Artefact. This allows to include other Organisms that may or may not be considered an CognitiveAgent and capable of producing Artifacts. Also note that Objects that are the result of some autonomous biological process such as 'tears' and 'feces' are NOT considered to be Artifacts.
Editorial: Artifact is an Object that is the result of some CreationOfArtifact and carried out by some CognitiveAgent.

bed railc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#BedRail

De primaire functie van een Bedhek is gericht op het voorkomen van vallen; binnen de Verpleeghuiszorg kan een Bedhek overigens ook worden toegepast als een zogenoemde 'vrijheidsbeperkende maatregel'. Anders gezegd: een Stoel en een Tafel zijn beide Artefacten met een primaire functie; daarnaast kan een Tafel voor allerlei niet-primaire functies worden gebruikt zoals 'een doorgang blokkeren' en 'zitten'. In VPH zijn Artefacten gemodelleerd volgens hun primaire functie. Aangezien 'vrijheidsbeperking' een belangrijke secundaire functie is van sommige Artefacten binnen het domein, is deze secundaire functie gemodelleerd als een Rol, meer specifiek de vph-g:FreedomRestrictionRole die als extra label kan worden meegegeven. Dus als twee patienten een bed hebben met een bedhek, dan kun je instantieren dat bij patient 1 het bedhek is geplaatst als vrijheidsbeperkende maatregel en bij patient 2 niet: 'bedhek bij patient 1' vph-g:Bedhek a EngineeringComponent hasRole FreedomRestrictionRole 'bedhek bij patient 2' vph-g:Bedhek a EngineeringComponent

body substancec back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#BodySubstance

Note that the FMA treats body substances such as 'liver tissue' and 'blood' as portions of substance, meaning that all subclasses in the FMA do carry Unity (+U). In the VPH Ontology, we handle all substances as -U. Hence, depending on the information need and the kind of data to be typed with the VPH ontology, end users are advised to reuse the FMA for anatomical entities if the data are very specific for the medical domain. If not, the more coarse-grained classes for tissues and body substances can be used that are modeled in VPH. In short, the FMA and the VPH are not fully compatible in how substances are modeled; this needs to be considered if data labeled with FMA and VPH were to be integrated. Also see: (http://purl.org/sig/ont/fma.owl) For notes on the FMA and the integration in VPH, also see the comments provided for the class vph-g: HumanAnatomicalEntity.

calamity eventc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#CalamityEvent

The extension of this class is open to change, interpretation and context while no member of the extension is necessarily a member. As such, this class has no defined subclasses or 'one of' axioms. As an example: if someone deliberately hurts himself, this event can be labeled as a vph-g:SelfHarmEvent. In case that this event is also considered a calamity that should be reported to authorities, one can apply an additional label 'CalamityEvent'. Alternatively, one can opt to label as 'CalamityEvent' only, while leaving out the specification of the more precise nature of the event (e.g. self-harm, a sexual assault, etc). Also note that vph allows for applying case roles for the participants of some events that can be used as labels for e.g. the 'agent' and the 'patient' of the event. As such, one can specify if: - a PatientInCare (agent) sexually assaulted some Caregiver (patient); - a PatientInCare (agent) sexually assaulted another PatientInCare (patient) or; - a CareGiver (agent) assaulted some PatientIncare (patient). Also see vph-g:Participant and its subclasses for more explanation and some examples.
Editorial: CalamityEvent is an unintended and unexpected event related to quality of care and that resulted in the death of some PatientInCare or severe injuries/complications/trauma.

In Natural Language, it is often unclear if one refers to the object or the content that it bears. When in doubt on what class to instantiate, we advise to check whether the focus is on the content/information or on the object. Also note that vph-g has two object properties to define the relation between ContentBearingObject and InformationObject: vph-g:bears and vph-g:borneBy.

dolce: The main characteristic of endurants is that all of them are independent essential wholes. This does not mean that the corresponding property (being an endurant) carries proper unity, since there is no common unity criterion for endurants. Endurants can 'genuinely' change in time, in the sense that the very same endurant as a whole can have incompatible properties at different times. To see this, suppose that an endurant - say 'this paper' - has a property at a time t 'it's white', and a different, incompatible property at time t' 'it's yellow': in both cases we refer to the whole object, without picking up any particular part of it. Within endurants, we distinguish between physical and non-physical endurants, according to whether they have direct spatial qualities.

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#Getting

Note that Getting and Giving are basically two sides of the same coin due to a change of perspective on either the receiver or the giver. This also holds for e.g. Buying and Selling. In other words: there is basically one event that can be labeled as a Giving event if the perspective of the giver is taken into account, while the same event will be labeled as a Getting event from the perspective of the receiver. As an example, see how these two sentences express the same event: "Yesterday, John received a grey sweater from Mary" vs "Yesterday, Mary gave a grey sweater to John". In other words: if two specific event graphs need to be compared on their unicity it should be noted that the labeling can not be decisive in case of perspectivized event labels such as Buying/Selling and Getting/Giving.

Note that 'intentional' should not be understood as 'on purpose'. Therefore, events such as 'wrong medicament supplied to patient' are considered to be an IntentionalEvent since supplying the medicament was preceded by some decision. In other words: IntentionalEvents can go wrong or can be are carried out based on some ill- or uninformed decisions and assumptions. Also note that IntentionalEvents can be performed by e.g. humans, groups of humans and animals.

For the difference between IntentionalProcess (stative) and IntentionalEvent (eventive), see the explanation provided for the class vph-g:Perdurant. In short: EventivePerdurants imply an intrinsic result that holds for all possible instances of that class and is identical for all instances of that class while StativePerdurant don't have an intrinsic result other 'not happening/no longer happening'. For example: 'buying' implies as result some change of ownership, hence: EventivePerdurant. 'assisting someone' implies no change other than perhaps 'no longer assisting someone', hence: StativePerdurant.

Note that 'alive' and 'healthy' are considered internal qualities of some Objects as well. As such, EventivePerdurants like 'injuring' and 'killing' result in some change of an internal quality of some Object and therefore are modeled as InternalChange. Also note that VPH does not impose any restrictions on who or what plays the causal role in enforcing the change of some internal attribute in some Object. In other words: 'the eartquake destroyed the house' and 'Mary destroyed the vase' and 'John killed Mary' are all instances of InternalChange or one of its subclasses. Also see the explanation provided for the class vph-g:SocialInteractionEvent.

The difference is that intentional cognitive processes are realized entirely within the human brain while instances of InvestigationEvent also comprise body-external actions. See also: vph-g: CognitiveProcess

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#LeavingAnOrganizationEvent

Note that LeavingAnOrganization can be lexicalized from the perspective of the Employer and the Worker. At this level of the VPH, we define no distinction between those since the result is identical: someone does no longer work for some Organization. As an example: 'Apple fired John' and 'John quit his job at Apple'. Both denote the same event concept and imply identical results: John does no longer work for Apple after the event. Note however that legal context and consequences of 'quitting a job' or 'being fired' are different. Hence, if there will be a future information need to make this distinction, subclasses for both can be placed here.

organizationc back to ToC or Class ToC

Note that sub organizations such as 'department' or a 'advisory board' are an Organization as well. For instance, 'Amsterdam Academic Hospital' is an instance of Organization, more specifically an instance of HospitalOrganization. Their Cardiology Department is an instance of CareOrganization while the Bookkeeping Department is an instance of e.g. AccountingOrganization. To define that these instances are part of a larger Organization, we will be using a property such as 'vph-g:hasSubOrganization'/'vph-g:isSubOrganizationOf'. This means that the number of different departments of some Organization can be inferred from the number of subOrganization properties to another instance classified as Organization. Also, the number of sub organizations not considered to be concerned with Cure or Care can be counted easily as well. Note that a set of generic (data) properties will be defined for Organization. As such, the Accounting Department in our example is defined as subOrganization of the Amsterdam Academic Hospital but may have a different address, while some 'advisory board' shares the address of the hospital but is not part of the Organization (it is an external Organization). What should or should not be considered a sub organization specifically within the Nursing Home care domain, and on what grounds, should be determined and defined outside the ontology. The ontology is deliberately not restricive in this.

participantc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#Participant

The class Participant is further specialized in so called case roles. Case roles are semantic roles played by participants of an event, process or situation. Note that the use of case roles is fully optional but allows for finegrained data retrieval on event participants. Our definition of case roles follows the theory of the linguist Charles Fillmore. In short, case roles describe what role some entity plays in an event, e.g. if it is doing something, undergoing something or using something. In this ontology, we use case role as a specification of the general role Participant. For example, in the sentence 'Mary hit John with vase', we have three participants: Mary, John and a vase. With case roles, you can specify the semantic role of the participants: 'Mary' is the Agent, 'John' the Patient and 'the vase' the Theme. Having case roles for participants of an event allows for specific queries that ask for e.g. all persons participating in some reported agressive incident in the role of AgentCaseRole or PatientCaseRole. In other words: ultimately it allows to specify whether a) some PatientInCare hit a Caregiver or b.) some Caregiver hit a PatientIncare or c) some PatientInCare hit another PatientInCare. Also see: Fillmore, Charles J. (April 1967). "The case for case". Proceedings of the Texas Symposium, on Language Universals.

Perdurantc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#Perdurant

As a more formal definition and explanation: Perdurants are only partially present at some point in time and extend in time by accumulating different temporal parts. For example "driving his car to Amsterdam" consist of different temporal parts or phases: driving his car at time 1, 2 and 3. As such, the driving accumulates temporal parts while the driving at time 1 and 2 are no longer present at time 3. In VPH, Perdurants are further specialized into EventivePerdurant and StativePerdurant following the modeling approach in DOLCE. The difference can be explained and illustrated as follows: -A perdurant is considered an EventivePerdurant if it is cumulative: "selling this car at time 1" and "selling this car at time 2 implies two different sellings. -A perdurant is considered a StativePerdurant if it is not cumulative: "owning this car at time 1" and "owning this car at time 2" does result in one owning a car and not two. Note that expressions in Natural Language that relate to Perdurants show different complementation and aspectual structures that indicate whether some expression is to be understood as e.g. an EventivePerdurant or a StativePerdurant. For example: "John is driving his car" would be considered a Process while "John drove his car to Amsterdam" would indicate an EventivePerdurant. In VPH, we deliberately abstract over these distinctions and realizations in Natural Language. As a rule of thumb, we define a class such as vph-g:Translocation as a subclass of EventivePerdurant since we consider translocations (e.g. drive, fly, walk) to be intrinsically cumulative.
Editorial: Perdurants are entities that unfold in time and have only temporal parts.

For example: Ritalin is an instance of PharmaceuticalArtifact and contains methylfenidate as its TherapeuticSubstance. Note that all Artifacts carry Unity (+U) while Substances do not (-U), hence substances can NOT be subclasses of this class. As a more pragmatic motivation for this distinction: note that some Human may be allergic or have an intolerance for some PharmaceuticalArtifact, but not the TherapeuticSubstance.

quality valuec back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#QualityValue

Say we want to state that some person weighs 54 kilo. There are basically two options to model this: directly with a data property or via reification of the quality value. In the case of a data property, we would say someting like : DataPropertyDomain (vph-g:hasWeight vph-g:Person) DataPropertyRange (vph-g:hasWeight xsd:integer) The use of the 'hasWeight' dataproperty has now been restricted by defining a specific domain and range. However, the meaning of the hasWeight property may vary within and across domains while the specific values may also be expressed in other data types. This approach hampers a.) interoperabilty across different models and b.) the annotation of heterogeneous data. With reification via QualityValues, we make the shared conceptualization of Weight explicit. With this, we can say that Person has quality Weight and that Weight has a MassValue. The data value of this MassValue is '54'. Also, the ontology provides units of measure that allow to define that '54' uses 'kilo' as unit of measure. If another person has the same MassValue of 54 but measured in 'stone', we know that we are still talking about a MassValue but the difference in UnitOfMeasure indicates that the two '54' data values point at a different weight. All subclasses of QualityValue will adhere to this pattern.
Editorial: Instances of QualityValue are the reified values of some quality that itself inheres in some instance of SpatioTemporalParticular.

situationc back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#Situation

An example may clarify what a Situation is and how it differs from Event and Process concepts : If we have an event such as: "Yesterday, John bought the car from Mary", we know that there are two different situations in reality: sit. 1: before yesterday, Mary owns the car and John didn't sit. 2: today, Mary no longer owns the car while John does. Situation 1 and 2 can be described as two different gufo:Situations: "Johns owning of this car after yesterday" and "Marys owning of this car before yesterday". Note how this is different from the concept "OwningACar" that would be considered as a subclass of StativePerdurant in VPH. Typically, instantiated situations take the form of a named graph that consists of triples that describe what the partial and time-bounded situations is. To this end, Gufo for instance, provides a limited set of typed situations. Another, somewhat similar approach is suggested in the ESO and CEO ontologies where the situations are anonymous but 'bounded' to the event that implies some change in the world. See for more details: -Segers, R., Vossen, P., Rospocher, M., Serafini, L., Laparra, E., & Rigau, G. (2015). Eso: A frame based ontology for events and implied situations. Proceedings of MAPLEX, 2015.
Editorial: A Situation is a StativePerdurant that corresponds to partial and time-bounded representation of a piece of reality or state of things in the world.

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#SocialInteractionEvent

Note that not all events where Humans may interact are therefore necessarily to be interpreted as a SocialInteractionEvent. This class defines events where the focus is on some intentional interaction between humans or groups of humans only and where there is some inherent change in the world as a result of the event other than 'not happening'. As some contrastive examples of happenings that (may) involve some (human) interaction but are not considered subclasses of SocialInteraction: - vph-g:Meeting is not an SocialInteractionEvent but considered a subclass of SocialInteractionProcess since there is no inherent result that holds for all instances of vph-g:Meeting besides of 'meeting is over/does no longer exist'. - vph-g:Killing and vph-g:Injuring are subclasses of InternalChange and not SocialInteractionEvent as a.) they not necessarily involve only Humans interacting and b.) not all injuring and killing events are intentional.
Editorial: SocialInteractionEvent is an IntentionalEvent where Humans interact with eachother with some inherent result.

sumo: Substance is a PhysicalObject "in which every part is similar to every other in every relevant respect. More precisely, something is a Substance when it has only arbitrary pieces as parts - any parts have properties which are similar to those of the whole. Note that a Substance may nonetheless have physical properties that vary. For example, the temperature, chemical constitution, density, etc. may change from one part to another.

toilet fixturec back to ToC or Class ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#ToiletFixture

In het Nederlands heeft het woord 'toilet' meerdere betekenissen waaronder 'ruimte waarin een of meerdere toiletten zijn geplaatst' en 'wc-pot'. Beide betekenissen hebben hun eigen concept: vph-g:ToiletRoom en vph-g:ToiletFixture. De reden hiervoor is onder andere gebaseerd op specifieke terminologie binnen het zorgdomein. Bijvoorbeeld: Een 'verhoogd toilet' duidt op een wc-pot met een extra hoog zitvlak, niet op een opgehoogde vloer. Een 'aangepast toilet' heeft doorgaans betrekking op de aanpassingen die zijn aangebracht in de ruimte waarin de wc staat zoals beugels en een alarmknop maar ook de zithoogte van de wc-pot. Met andere woorden, een wc-pot/toilet staat in/is onderdeel van een ruimte die ook als 'toilet' wordt aangeduid.

Note however, that VPH also allows to model the event and its TransportationDevice playing the role of vph-g:InstrumentCaseRole. This way, one prevents the proliferation of finegrained subclasses based on 'means of transportation' as is done in SnoMed.

Note that this class is for events where some PatientInCare moves or is moved physically; in the case that there is e.g. some transfer of care but the PatientInCare is not moved to another location, we refer to vph-g:AdministrativeTransferOfCare. Specific events that denote both a transfer of care AND a translocation of the PatientInCare should be considered an instance of vph-g:TransportationOfPatientInCare AND an instance of vph-g:AdministrativeTransferOfCare. Note that the reason for this distinction is that not every 'transfer of care' implies that the PatientIncare moves to another location, while not every transportation of a PatientInCare implies that there is a 'transfer of care'. See also vph-g:AdministrativeContentDevelopment and its subclasses.

This is a unit of measure for workloads and can be defined as "the number of total hours worked divided by the maximum number of compensable hours in a full-time schedule as defined by law" (source:Wikipedia). Since the full-time schedule may vary within the Cure domain, this ontology provides additional units of measure to state that e.g. '0.8' is a data value of some QuantityValue and that it uses the CompositeUnitOfMeasure 'FTE' and the NonCompositeUnitOfMeasure '38 hours workweek'.

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#editorNote

This annotation property is used for any remarks, questions and considerations that are primarily intended for the ontology modelers and do not need to be included in the publication of the ontology. Editor Notes may include for example 'to do's', initial axiomatizations and things to check with domain experts.

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#hasApproximateZIBLabel

This annotation property is used to define an association to a so called ZIB entity as defined in https://zibs.nl/wiki/Hoofdpagina. (By absence of stable URIs in this resource, we do not use SKOS mapping properties for now).

has lexical expressionsap back to ToC or Annotation Property ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/ozo/vph-g#hasLexicalExpressions

This annotation property is used to associate a concept in the ontology with a set of lexical expressions or words in a Natural language such as Dutch. This annotation property is intended to accommodate access to the ontology for non-experts by look-ups of words and terms instead of class and property labels. For example: if one searches for the Dutch term 'uitgiftefout', the class vph-g:ErroneousDispenseOfMedicalSubstance will be shown. Note that words can have multiple meanings, so one word can be associated with multiple concepts in the ontology as well. For example, a lookup for the Dutch word 'gemeente' results in two different classes: vph-g:MunicipalityArea (a place where you can live) AND vph-g:MunicipalityGovernment (the organization that governs this area). Also note that currently this property has been used for about a third of all classes in vph-g and for Dutch only. Also, the set of associated words is indicative and not exhaustive.
