Author Instruction

Here you find more information about this type of nanopublication. You can create a new one below, and check out the ones you have already created, as candidates for your Data Science submission.

Type Description This is the description of the type of nanopublications you can create through this page.

Such a nanopublication defines a new class. Classes represent sets of concrete or abstract things, and are by convention named with singular nouns (or noun phrases) like 'human', 'cardiovascular disease', or 'approach'.

If the term you want to define does not refer to a set of things but a single instance, such as the planet Mars or Marie Curie, define them with the template for individuals instead.

Example Nanopublication A nanopublication contains as main content a statement in the assertion part (shown in blue) encoded in a way that computers can understand. It is expressed as one or more subject-relation-object structures, each shown on a separate line, where the identifier of the subject (left) is connected to the identifier of the object (right) via the identifier of the relation type (middle).
