# Simple text-based definitions of hierarchial ontologies of 
# (physical) entity types, relation types, event types, and
# attributes.

# This is a minimal example configuration, based (loosely) on some
# ACE'05 entity, relation and event definitions
# (http://projects.ldc.upenn.edu/ace/annotation/2005Tasks.html).
# Please edit this according to the needs of your annotation.

[entities]

# Definition of entities.

# Format is a simple list with one type per line.

Actor
Action
Object
Property
#Modifier

#Person
#Organization
#GPE
#Money

[relations]

# Definition of (binary) relations.

# Format in brief: one relation per line, with first space-separated
# field giving the relation type and the rest of the line the
# comma-separated arguments in ROLE:TYPE format. The roles are
# typically "Arg1" and "Arg2".

IsActorOf            Arg1:Actor, Arg2:Action
ActsOn            Arg1:Action, Arg2:Object|Property
HasProperty            Arg1:Actor|Object|Property, Arg2:Property
#IsModifierOf       Arg1:Modifier, Arg2:Actor|Object|Property

#Located            Arg1:Person, Arg2:GPE
#Geographical_part  Arg1:GPE,    Arg2:GPE
#Family             Arg1:Person, Arg2:Person
#Employment         Arg1:Person, Arg2:GPE
#Ownership          Arg1:Person, Arg2:Organization
#Origin             Arg1:Organization, Arg2:GPE

#Alias              Arg1:Person, Arg2:Person, <REL-TYPE>:symmetric-transitive

[events]

# Definition of events.

# Format in brief: one event per line, with first space-separated
# field giving the event type and the rest of the line the
# comma-separated arguments in ROLE:TYPE format. Arguments may be
# specified as either optional (by appending "?" to role) or repeated
# (by appending either "*" for "0 or more" or "+" for "1 or more").

# this is a macro definition, used for brevity
#<POG>=Person|Organization|GPE

# the "!" before a type specifies that it cannot be used for annotation
# (hierarchy structure only.)
#!Life
#	Be-born   Person-Arg:Person, Place-Arg?:GPE
#	Marry     Person-Arg{2}:Person, Place-Arg?:GPE
#	Divorce   Person-Arg{2}:Person, Place-Arg?:GPE
#	Die       Person-Arg:Person, Agent-Arg?:<POG>, Place-Arg?:GPE
#!Transaction
#	Transfer-ownership  Buyer-Arg:<POG>, Seller-Arg:<POG>, Artifact-Arg:Organization
#	Transfer-money	Giver-Arg:<POG>, Recipient-Arg:<POG>, Beneficiary-Arg:<POG>, Money-Arg:Money
#!Business

#	Merge-org  Org-Arg+:Organization
#	End-org    Org-Arg:Organization
#Report Reporter-Arg:<POG>, Event-Arg:<EVENT>

[attributes]

# Definition of entity and event attributes.

# Format in brief: first tab-separated field is attribute name, second
# a set of key-value pairs. The latter must define "Arg:" which
# specifies what the attribute can attach to (typically "<EVENT>").
# If no other keys are defined, the attribute is binary (present or
# absent). If "Value:" with multiple alternatives is defined, the
# attribute can have one of the given values.

#Individual   Arg:<ENTITY>
#Mention      Arg:<ENTITY>, Value:Name|Nominal|Other
#
#Negation     Arg:<EVENT>
#Confidence   Arg:<EVENT>, Value:High|Neutral|Low
