confidence
- CURIE:
gmeow:confidence - IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/confidence
- Category: property
- Defined by:
gmeow:slices/provenance - Box roles: CBox role, RBox role (What is this?)
Confidence in a claim, in the closed interval [0,1], attached to the statement it qualifies.
Structure
Property shape: annotation property
Practical Pattern
Use gmeow:confidence when the definition matches the source fact. Prefer a narrower GMEOW term when one exists, and keep projection concerns in the mapping layer.

# Worked example: ingest lineage on the PROV triad. A machine-generated
# summary records WHERE it came from (gmeow:wasDerivedFrom → the source), HOW it
# was produced (gmeow:wasGeneratedBy → an Activity), and WHO ran it
# (gmeow:wasAttributedTo → an Agent). The importer is a gmeow:SoftwareAgent that
# self-records its own run — the producer of the provenance is inside it.
# (How much to trust the derivation is gmeow:confidence — an annotation on the
# derivation STATEMENT, carried in the RDF-1.2 statement layer rather than as an
# A-box property on the individual, so it is out of scope for this flat example.)
