Slides of the presentation at #ENDORSE2023 The SPARQL Anything project: http://sparql-anything.cc Endorse Conference 2023, see https://twitter.com/EULawDataPubs/status/1635663471349223425 -- Abstract: What should a data integration framework for knowledge graph experts look like? Approaches can transform the non-RDF data sources by applying ad-hoc transformations to existing ontologies (Any23), using a mapping language (RML) or expanding on existing standards with custom operators (SPARQL Generate). These solutions result either in code that is difficult to maintain and reuse or require KG experts to learn a variety of languages and custom tools. Recent research on Knowledge Graph construction proposes the design of a façade, a notion borrowed from object-oriented software engineering. This idea is applied to SPARQL Anything, a system that allows querying heterogeneous resources as if they were in RDF, in standard SPARQL 1.1. The SPARQL Anything project supports a wide variety of file formats, from popular ones (CSV, JSON, XML, Spreadsheets) to others that are not supported by alternative solutions (Markdown, YAML, DOCx, Bibtex). Features include querying Web APIs with high flexibility, parametrized queries, and chaining multiple transformations into complex pipelines. We describe the design rationale of the SPARQL Anything system and its application in two EU-funded projects and in the industry. We provide references to an extensive set of reusable showcases. We report on the value-to-users of the founding assumptions of SPARQL Anything, compared to alternative solutions to knowledge graph construction.
