I have the following code to retrieve all people that was born in Barcelona
PREFIX dbo: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#>
SELECT ?person ?birthPlace
WHERE {
?person rdfs:label ?label.
?person rdf:type dbo:Person.
?person <http://dbpedia.org/property/birthPlace>
<http://dbpedia.org/resource/Barcelona>.
}
However, I do not know how to get the birthPlace. I want a variable that says next to each name that Barcelona is the place of birth. Any ideas?
How about this:
PREFIX dbo: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#>
SELECT ?person ?birthPlace
WHERE {
?person rdfs:label ?label.
?person rdf:type dbo:Person.
?person <http://dbpedia.org/property/birthPlace> ?birthPlace.
FILTER (?birthPlace = <http://dbpedia.org/resource/Barcelona>)
}
Note that your query has a pattern to match labels, but the labels are not returned. That leads to duplicate results because some people have multiple labels (in different languages). Remove the pattern, or add ?label to the SELECT clause.
You can abbreviate <http://dbpedia.org/property/birthPlace> to dbp:birthPlace.

I've created sparql query for searching person and article
PREFIX rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#>
PREFIX dbo: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
PREFIX foaf: <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/>
PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#>
SELECT ?name ?person ?description
WHERE {
?person rdf:type dbo:Person.
?person foaf:name ?name .
?person rdfs:comment ?description .
FILTER (regex(?description, 'morgan freeman' ,'i')) .
FILTER (lang(?description) = 'in')
}
ORDER BY ?name
and its working when searching morgan freeman
but not working when searching article God Created All Things or Birth of Jesus
how to search acticle on dbpedia with sparql query?
2.5) List the people and their names who are born in Jönköping before 1900.
2.6) Are there musical artists who were born in Jönköping? (use an ASK query).
2.7) Find 10 people (URI and place of death) who were born in Jönköping, but died elsewhere.
I am using dbpedia to run queries and fetch data
SELECT DISTINCT * WHERE {?x ?y "Jönköping"#en }
This is the URI Which is retrived
DESCRIBE http://dbpedia.org/resource/Jönköping
You can solve as following;
2.5) List the people and their names who are born in Jönköping before 1900
PREFIX db: <http://dbpedia.org/resource/>
PREFIX foaf: <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/>
PREFIX dbo: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
SELECT ?name ?birth
WHERE
{
?person dbo:birthPlace db:Jönköping .
?person dbo:birthDate ?birth .
?person foaf:name ?name .
FILTER (?birth < "1900-01-01"^^xsd:date) .
}
ORDER BY ?birth
2.6) Are there musical artists who were born in Jönköping? (use an ASK query)
PREFIX db: <http://dbpedia.org/resource/>
PREFIX foaf: <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/>
PREFIX dbo: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
ASK WHERE{SELECT ?person WHERE{
?person a dbo:MusicalArtist .
?person dbo:birthPlace db:Jönköping .
}}
2.7)Find 10 people (URI and place of death) who were born in Jönköping, but died elsewhere
PREFIX db: <http://dbpedia.org/resource/>
PREFIX foaf: <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/>
PREFIX dbo: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
SELECT DISTINCT ?name ?person
WHERE
{
?person dbo:birthPlace db:Jönköping .
?person dbo:deathPlace ?deathPlace.
?person foaf:name ?name .
FILTER (?deathPlace != db:Jönköping) .
} ORDER BY ?name LIMIT 10
the local file uploaded on stardog:
#prefix dbo: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/> .
#prefix dbr: <http://dbpedia.org/resource/> .
dbr:United_States dbo:leader dbr:John_Roberts ,
dbr:Joe_Biden ,
dbr:Barack_Obama ,
dbr:Paul_Ryan .
1.query using the local file:
PREFIX dbr: <http://dbpedia.org/resource/>
PREFIX db: <http://dbpedia.org/>
PREFIX dbo: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
SELECT ?person ?o
FROM <http://example.com/leaders.ttl>
WHERE{
dbr:United_States dbo:leader ?person .
SERVICE <http://dbpedia.org/sparql> { ?person dbo:abstract ?o .}
}
2.Same query using only dbpedia will give results:
PREFIX dbr: <http://dbpedia.org/resource/>
PREFIX db: <http://dbpedia.org/>
PREFIX dbo: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
SELECT ?person ?o
FROM <http://example.com/leaders.ttl>
WHERE{
#dbr:United_States dbo:leader ?person .
SERVICE <http://dbpedia.org/sparql> { dbr:United_States dbo:leader ?person. ?person dbo:abstract ?o.}
}
Using the second query will result in a colum with the leaders and a column of abstract of the leaders in all languages available from dbpedia. Why does the first query where I use the local rdf file not work? The select query on the local file with dbr:United_States dbo:leader ?person . returns exactly the same column with the same leaders as running it directly on the dbpedia endpoint: dbpedia:John_Roberts, dbpedia:Joe_Biden, dbpedia:Barack_Obama, dbpedia:Paul_Ryan.
Why does the first query give no results?
I'm trying to extract entity dictionary contains person name etc. from dbpedia using sparql.
PREFIX owl: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
PREFIX dbpprop: <http://dbpedia.org/property/>
SELECT ?name
WHERE {
?person a owl:Person .
?person dbpprop:name ?name . FILTER(lang(?name) = "en")
}
The query above did succeed, but when I change the language name to fr, there is nothing to fetch.
How can I fetch names in other languages?
Moreover, why can't I filter language using query below?
SELECT ?name
WHERE {
?person a owl:Person .
?person dbpprop:language "English"
?person dbpprop:name ?name .
}
// this query returns nothing
I tried to fetch all languages using
SELECT DISTINCT ?lanName
WHERE {
?person a owl:Person .
?person dbpprop:language ?lanName .
}
and the result set contains English.
You need to filter based on the language of the value of the property. Not every property will have values in different languages, but some properties will. It seems, from your example, that dbpprop:name doesn't have values in every language. You may find more values in other languages if you look on the other language specific DBpediae.
However, for something like a name, you'll probably get multi-language results if you use the rdfs:label property. For instance, to get the names of Barack Obama, Daniel Webster, and Johnny Cash in Russian, you could do:
select ?label {
values ?person { dbpedia:Johnny_Cash dbpedia:Barack_Obama dbpedia:Daniel_Webster }
?person rdfs:label ?label .
filter langMatches(lang(?label),"ru")
}
SPARQL results
As an aside, note the use of langMatches rather than equality for matching language tags. This is usually a better approach, because it will correctly handle the different language tags within a language For example (from the SPARQL specification), you can find both of the French literals:
"Cette Série des Années Soixante-dix"#fr .
"Cette Série des Années Septante"#fr-BE .
with langMatches(lang(?title),"fr"), but only the first one with lang(?title) = "fr".
You are looking for rdfs:label for a name, of course all the names are English, you are looking at the English dbpedia.
PREFIX owl: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
PREFIX dbpprop: <http://dbpedia.org/property/>
SELECT distinct *
WHERE {
?person a owl:Person .
?person rdfs:label ?name .
FILTER(lang(?name) = "fr")
}
Again, for the second one, if you replace the name with the rdfs: label you can have:
PREFIX owl: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
PREFIX dbpprop: <http://dbpedia.org/property/>
SELECT distinct *
WHERE {
?person a owl:Person .
?person rdfs:label ?name .
?person dbpprop:language <http://dbpedia.org/resource/English_language>.
}
Assume that I uses the FOAF ontology. I want to return the name and the mbox for each person. I use the following query:
PREFIX foaf: <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/>
SELECT DISTINCT ?name ?email
WHERE {
?person foaf:name ?name.
?person foaf:mbox ?email.
}
The result of the join is a set of rows: ?person, ?name, ?email. This query is returning the ?name and ?email. Note that in some of the ?person may have multiple mailboxes, so in the returned set, a ?name row may appear multiple times, once for each mailbox.
Is there a solution to make a GROUP BY person ?name?
You can group by person but then you need an aggregation for ?name and ?email
PREFIX foaf: <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/>
SELECT (sample(?name) AS ?name2) (sample(?email) as ?email2)
WHERE {
?person foaf:name ?name.
?person foaf:mbox ?email.
} GROUP BY ?person
SAMPLE picks one possible from the group for each ?person.
or maybe
SELECT (group_concat(?name) AS ?names)
(except that's a string).
It may be easier work with
PREFIX foaf: <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/>
SELECT ?name ?email
WHERE {
?person foaf:name ?name.
?person foaf:mbox ?email.
}
ORDER BY ?person ?name ?email
and process the results in your application where you know the incoming results have all the entries for one person is a single section of the results.
