46. How are vocabularies used? • Traditional use of vocabularies for retrieval focuses on the names • If a user asks for one name/term, all of the synonyms can be used for retrieval • For example, if a user searches on “Giovanni da Bologna”... “giambologna” OR “giovanni da bologna” OR “giovanni bologna” OR “jean boulogne” OR “bologna, giovanni da” From ULAN Giambologna Giovanni da Bologna Giovanni Bologna Jean Boulogne Jean de Boulogne Bologna, Giovanni da Giambologna Female Figure; Marble; H: 48 in.; 2008 J. Paul Getty Museum; 82.SA.37 Jean Boulogne; Mercure volant; Bronze; H 1,7 m; L 0,57m; Pr 1,4 m; Musee du Louvre, Collection du duc de Brissac (saisie en 1794)?; MR Giovanni Bologna; Triton, 16th century (1560–70); Bronze; H. 36 in; Metropolitan Museum of Art; Bequest of Benjamin Altman, 1913 (14.40.689) Bologna, Giovanni da; Christ Crucified, probably before 1588; bronze, corpus, height including foot rest: .371 x .254 x .078 m ; National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC; Gift of Mr. and Mrs. John R.

47. • New methods and LOD can incorporate hierarchical and associative relationships, and other links or inferred relationships to answer more complex questions and aid serendipitous discovery How are vocabularies used? Associative relationships Marie de Medici (French queen, patron, 1573-1642) Tacca, Pietro (Italian sculptor and architect, 1577-1640) Giambologna (Flemish sculptor and architect, 1529- 1608, active in Italy) Patricia Harpring © 2014 J.

48. Editorial perspective: LOD  The Getty vocabularies have always been compiled by experts o Using authoritative sources o Rules in extensive editorial manuals  Seen through the LOD lens, any inconsistency or omission becomes ever more obvious  Getty Vocabulary Program analyzes and cleans up of the data for LOD releases Editorial rules Consistency in application of rules Consistency in content of controlled terminology within each vocabulary Creating actual links between vocabularies Patricia Harpring © 2014 J. Paul Getty Trust. For educational purposes only. Do not distribute.

49. Editorial perspective: LOD AAT CONA TGN ULAN • From conceptual to actual links • Lookup lists had been based on AAT, but had gotten out of sync with AAT over the years • E.g., nationalities, roles in ULAN and place types in TGN must map to AAT terms Patricia Harpring © 2014 J. Paul Getty Trust. For educational purposes only. Do not distribute.

50. • Nationality/ Culture/ Race/ Ethnicity in ULAN was conceptual, now needed to be linked to AAT • Certain matches must be resolved by hand Matching ULAN Nationality to AAT no match ambiguous match Many links cannot be made automatically This hessian is bad match, type of burlap false match Editorial perspective: LOD ULAN Example

62. • The way data is being published on the web is currently in transition. • A current trend in managing art information is to increasingly make data about art, architecture, and cultural objects available as Linked Open Data. • This applies to the information directly describing the objects, but also to the vocabularies used in the descriptions. • For several years, the Getty Vocabulary team had been receiving legitimate requests to publish our thesauri as LOD. • Dr. Zeng’s 62-page report convinced us that it was possible to publish all of our data as LOD. It was time to stop asking “why” and to start exploring “how” to make it happen. © 2014 J. Paul Getty Trust, author: Joan Cobb .For educational purposes only. Do not distribute.
