conclusion
- CURIE:
gmeow:conclusion - IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/conclusion
- Category: property
- Defined by:
gmeow:slices/inference - Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)
The single conclusion of a reified gmeow:InferenceCommitment — the gmeow:StandpointClaim the argument establishes (vantage = the reasoner, observedFeature = the concluded proposition). Functional: one commitment, one conclusion; an argument with two conclusions is two commitments (SHACL enforces exactly one).
Structure
Property shape: object property; gmeow:InferenceCommitment -> gmeow:StandpointClaim; functional
Practical Pattern
Use gmeow:conclusion from gmeow:InferenceCommitment to gmeow:StandpointClaim when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.
