mOWL is a library that provides different machine learning methods in which ontologies are used as background knowledge. mOWL is developed mainly in Python, but we have integrated the functionalities of OWLAPI, which is written in Java, for which we use JPype to bind Python with the Java Virtual Machine (JVM).
- JDK version 8
- Python version 3.8
- Conda version >= 4.x.x
- Gensim >= 4.x.x
- PyTorch >= 1.12.x
- PyKEEN >= 1.9.x
pip install mowl-borg
Installation can be done with the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/bio-ontology-research-group/mowl.git
cd mowl
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate mowl
./build_jars.sh
python setup.py install
The last line will generate the necessary jar files to bind Python with the code that runs in the JVM. After building, a .tar.gz file will be generated under dist and can be used to install mOWL.
