    Knowledge Graphs - Working Group Charter (NFDI section-metadata) (1.2)
    (Genève : CERN, 2023) Stocker, Markus; Rossenova, Lozana; Shigapov, Renat; Betancort, Noemi; Dietze, Stefan; Murphy, Bridget; Bölling, Christian; Schubotz, Moritz; Koepler, Oliver
    Knowledge Graphs are a key technology for implementing the FAIR principles in data infrastructures by ensuring interoperability for both humans and machines. The Working Group "Knowledge Graphs" in Section "(Meta)data, Terminologies, Provenance" of the German National Research Data Infrastructure (Nationale Forschungsdateninfrastruktur (NFDI) e.V.) aims to promote the use of knowledge graphs in all NFDI consortia, to facilitate cross-domain data interlinking and federation following the FAIR principles, and to contribute to the joint development of tools and technologies that enable transformation of structured and unstructured data into semantically reusable knowledge across different domains.

    Concept for Setting up the Persistent Identifier Services Working Group in the NFDI Section "Common Infrastructures"
    (Zenodo, 2022) Bingert, Sven; Brase, Jan; Burger, Felix; Dreyer, Britta; Hagemann-Wilholt, Stephanie; Vierkant, Paul; Wieder, Philipp
    The aim of this NFDI working group is to develop a common strategy for the implementation and extension of PID services that is closely aligned with the needs of NFDI consortia. Resulting solutions should enable FAIR research workflows balancing out generic metadata requirements for PIDs that maximise resource discoverability on the one hand and subject-specific needs on the other. At the technical level, the partners want to realise interoperability between PID types and established systems and build on a high level of maturity here; jointly developed services should be able to be rolled out for the entire NFDI.

    PID4NFDI: Survey on PID Practices. Main results
    (Zenodo, 2023) Hagemann-Wilholt, Stephanie
    In December 2022 and January 2023, the NFDI working group on Persistent Identifier Services conducted a survey among infrastructure managers of NFDI services to learn about current PID integrations and future plans on PID usage. The slides summarise the key results of the survey.

    The Case for a Common, Reusable Knowledge Graph Infrastructure for NFDI
    (Hannover : TIB Open Publishing, 2023) Rossenova, Lozana; Schubotz, Moritz; Shigapov, Renat
    The Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) of the European Commission identifies Knowledge Graphs (KGs) as one of the most important technologies for building an interoperability framework and enabling data exchange among users across countries, sectors, and disciplines [1]. KG is a graph-structured knowledge base containing a terminology (vocabulary or ontology) and data entities interrelated via the terminology [2]. KGs are based on semantic web technologies (RDF, SPARQL, etc.) and often used for agile data integration. KGs also play an essential role within Germany as a vehicle to connect research data and research-related entities and make those accessible – examples include the GESIS Knowledge Graph Infrastructure, TIB Open Research Knowledge Graph, and GND.network. Furthermore, the Wikidata knowledge graph, maintained by Wikimedia Germany, contains a large number of research-related entities and is widely used in scientific knowledge management in addition to being an important advocacy tool for open data [3]. Extending domain-specific ontology-supported KGs with the multidisciplinary, crowdsourced knowledge in Wikidata KG would enable significant applications. The linking between expert knowledge systems and world knowledge empowers lay persons to benefit from high-quality research data and ultimately contributes to increasing confidence in scientific research in society.
