Embedding

• CURIE: gmeow:Embedding

• Category: class
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/graphrag
• Box roles: TBox role (What is this?)

A vector representation of an information object (usually a core gmeow:Chunk), produced by an embedding model — the genuine vocabulary gap in the semantic-web stack (GraphRAG provenance design): model, dimensionality, and metric have no agreed RDF representation, so the refusal is recorded in the alignment trailer rather than papered over. The vector payload stays OUTSIDE the graph (gmeow:vectorRef, P12); the graph carries the provenance that makes it auditable.

Structure

Subclass of: gmeow:InformationObject

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:Embedding as a specialized kind of gmeow:InformationObject. Add statement metadata or a standpoint when the assertion needs provenance, confidence, or vantage.
