Proceedings:
Today we discussed the inconsistency issue that Livio raised with the Collective Investment Vehicles (CIV) provisional ontology. Livio shared that he is working on extraction of content from various documents in banking data to populate a prospectus summary, known in the EU as a key investor information document (KIID), describing certain kinds of fund offerings - see https://www.robeco.com/doca/rafrika_a-kiid-202102-profgloben.pdf for an example. These KIID summaries are required in the EU, per https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dir/2009/65/2020-01-07. They summarize and provide pointers into prospectus documents. Livio's work includes incorporating tags that are derived via NLP, and linked through the use of the OASIS LegalDocML standard (see https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=legaldocml), also known as Akoma Ntoso. We also looked at https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2018/12/data.akn as an example of how LegalDocML is used to mark up legislation, and talked about the use of the Lemon ontology, maybe with mappings to LegalDocML, to improve on the process. We spoke briefly about Lemon and its companion tool, Lime (see http://lime.cirsfid.unibo.it/). Livio also ran across https://www.legislation.gov.uk/developer/formats/rdf, but wasn't sure how that was connected to the link above showing the mark-up.
To support his efforts, we made a few changes today to the CIV ontology: (1) to add a class, as a subclass of offering document, for key investor information document (KIID), and (2) to eliminate the inconsistency he identified. Elisa will push the updated ontology out to github so that Livio can test whether or not the change addressed the inconsistency, but also so that he can extend the new class to facilitate his work. We will continue the discussion and review of the CIV ontology next week.
Note that this second notes page was created due to some sort of confluence error associated with the original one that precluded updates.
