Concept mapping hub

Background

The idea of a concept hub for mapping between vocabularies is als referred to as a "spine", "switching language", or "hub-and-spoke." (Nicholson 2004 & 2010). As part of project coli-conc we elaborate on using a concept hub extended by description logic (Balakrsihnan et al 2020).
