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)
