Class: Qualifier (Qualifier)

A key-value object used to capture additional piece of information that extends or refines the meaning of a Statement's core subject - predicate - object 'triple' - by providing additional detail, or constraining the statement to apply in a particular context.

Comments

Qualifiers allow representation of more complex, n-ary statements that may not be accommodated by a simple subject-predicate-object (SPO) triple. For example, if a triple asserts that 'Variant X' - predicts sensitivity to - 'Treatment Y', a qualifier can be used to indicate that this applies in the context of a particular 'Disease Z'. Qualifiers can also add information that 'quantifies' aspects of a Statement - e.g. for a Statement triple asserting that a 'Variant X'- causes - 'Phenotype Y', a qualifier can be used to add frequency/penetrance information that quantifies the percentage of carriers in which the phenotype is observed to manifest.

Slots

Direct slots

name --> String [1]

A descriptive name that describes the type of information captured in the Qualifier value.

Implementation Guidance

* Recommended convention is to treat this like the name of an attribute in the model - use snake case syntax, and append 'Qualifier' to the end of the name. e.g. 'diseaseContextQualifier', or 'alleleOriginQualifier'.

value --> String [1]

The value of the qualifier - holding information that refines/extends the meaning of the Statement.

Implementation Guidance

* Value can be of any data type - a string, an integer or float, a uriorcurie, a Coding, etc.
