OWL
Skill · semantic web
The Web Ontology Language (OWL) is a family of knowledge representation languages for authoring ontologies. Ontologies are a formal way to describe taxonomies and classification networks, essentially defining the structure of knowledge for various domains: the nouns representing classes of objects and the verbs representing relations between the objects.

- Reasoner (ask.chaipat.cc)
The reasoner in src/reason.js gives ask.chaipat.cc RDFS and OWL reasoning, property chains included: when the graph loads, it applies the site's OWL ontology to the facts and adds what they imply.
In the knowledge graph
OWL and the 7 things it is linked to. Open any dot for its page, or explore it in the full graph.
As data
Everything on this page is read from triples in the knowledge graph. These are the 4 it states about OWL; the console runs SPARQL over the whole graph, here in your browser.
