kempersc 53c6dbc2d9 feat(schema): Migrate temporal slots and introduce new pattern classes
Major slot migrations following slot_fixes.yaml revisions:
- TimeSpan: begin_of_the_begin, begin_of_the_end, end_of_the_begin, end_of_the_end
- Quantity: has_or_had_measurement_unit with MeasureUnit class
- Description: has_or_had_description with Description class
- URL, WikiData, Timestamp, Location, Provenance pattern classes

New slots for RiC-O compliance:
- Temporal: has_or_had_time_interval, calendar_system
- Transfer: is_or_was_transferred, has_or_had_policy
- Location: starts/ends_or_started/ended_at_location
- Provenance: has_or_had_provenance_path, is_or_was_webarchived_at

Archive deprecated slots per Rule 53 workflow.

Hypothesis:
description: >-
A hypothesis or working assertion about uncertain or ambiguous data.
**USE CASE**: Institution Type Hypotheses
When an institution's type cannot be definitively determined, multiple
type hypotheses can be recorded with supporting/contradicting evidence
and confidence levels.
**STRUCTURE**:
- Asserted value (the hypothesis)
- Confidence level
- Supporting evidence
- Contradicting evidence
- Alternative interpretations
**ONTOLOGY MAPPING**:
- class_uri: skos:Concept (the hypothesis is a conceptual assertion)
- Related to prov:Entity (what is being hypothesized about)
class_uri: skos:Concept
close_mappings:
- prov:Entity
- schema:Claim
related_mappings:
- skos:note
attributes:
asserted_value:
range: string
required: true
description: >-
The hypothesized value or assertion.
Example: "MUSEUM", "ARCHIVE", "COLLECTING_SOCIETY"
confidence_level:
range: string
description: >-
Qualitative confidence level for this hypothesis.
Values: "high", "medium", "low", "very_low"
confidence_score:
range: float
minimum_value: 0.0
maximum_value: 1.0
description: >-
Numeric confidence score (0.0 to 1.0) for this hypothesis.
supporting_evidence:
range: string
multivalued: true
description: >-
Evidence supporting this hypothesis.
Example: "Uses term 'exhibitions' in description"
contradicting_evidence:
range: string
multivalued: true
description: >-
Evidence contradicting this hypothesis.
Example: "No physical location mentioned"
alternative_interpretation:
range: string
description: >-
Alternative interpretation of the same evidence.
Example: "Could also be interpreted as gallery based on art focus"
note:
range: string
slot_uri: skos:note
description: >-
General notes about this hypothesis.
annotations:
custodian_types: '["U"]'
custodian_types_rationale: >-
Hypotheses are primarily used for Unknown (U) type institutions
where the type is ambiguous and needs research to resolve.
custodian_types_primary: "U"
specificity_score: 0.8
specificity_rationale: >-
High specificity - only relevant for uncertain/ambiguous data.
examples:
