Description
- Indexed in-memory graph
Implementation of a TripleCollection that internally manages SPO, POS, OSP indexes for fast filtered iterators. The current state of development is hosted at http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/stanbol/trunk/commons/indexedgraph/. However the intention is that this module becomes direct part of clerezza.
-
- Background:
For Apache Stanbol having fast filtered iterators over in-memory graphs is really important, because Stanbol uses in-memory graph to store extracted metadata for parsed ContentItems.
When enhancing longer texts with EnhancementChain configurations that produce a lot of enhancements (e.g. keyword extraction based on dbpedia) such in-memory graphs can get bigger than 100k triples. Especially if also triples for suggested entities are included within the result.
-
- Implementation:
Because of that I started to implement an TripleCollection that used TreeMaps to manage SPO, POS, OSP indexes.
For fast sorting (comparator) I use the same Resource#hashCode Resource#toString based solution as used in the rdf.rdfjson serializer. I hope this is also sufficient for Literals (someone should check that).
The implementation of the "filter(..)" method is purely based on "NavigableSet.subSet(..).iterator()". I only need to wrap the iterator to ensure that by calls to Iterator.remove():
1) Triples are removed from all three indexes
2) GraphEvents are dispatched correctly
Note also the trick with the two static fields UriRef MIN and UriRef MAX used to generate lower/upper bound triples as parsed to "NavigableSet.subSet(..)".
The implementation is currently hosted on http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/stanbol/trunk/commons/indexedgraph/
It has no dependencies to Apache Stanbol. However users that do not want to check-out Stanbol as a whole will need to edit the pom.xml file and provide information usually imported from the parent poms.

- Tests:
This implementation passes all MGraphTest UnitTests.
In addition I have copied the tests define for SimpleTripleCollection
To compare the performance I also implemented code that
- allows to create a random Graph with n Triples
- create a TestCase with configurable numbers of Subjects, Predicates and Objects
- performs than m calls to #filter(...)
This performance test runs also as UnitTest
1. by using the SimpleMGraph implementation
2. by using the IndexedMGraph implementation
NOTE: While implementing this I recognized that the SimpleTripleCollectionTest does not extend MGraphTest and therefore the SimpleTripleCollection class is not checked against the tests defined by MGraphTest. This might actually an Issue!
