supertype: pm#binary_relation_type all binary relation types are instance of that object instance: pm#antisymmetric_relation__antisymmetricrelation (?,?) this category only serves structuration purposes: it is instance of pm#antisymmetric_relation_type which is not instance of pm#class_of_inheritable_relation_type

subtype: sumo#immediate_instance__immediateinstance (?,sumo#set_or_class) if the common reading conventions of parameters had been respected, this type would have been named immediate_instance_of; an object is an immediate_instance of a set_or_class if it is an instance of the set_or_class and there does not exist a subclass of set_or_class such that it is an instance of the subclass
subtype: sumo#immediate_subclass__immediate_subclass_of (sumo#set_or_class,sumo#set_or_class) the 1st argument is a subclass of the 2nd argument and there is no other subclass of the 2nd argument such that the 1st is also a subclass of the 2nd; in WebKB, use the link '<'

subtype: sumo#front_fn__frontfn (sumo#self_connected_object -> sumo#self_connected_object) a function that maps an object to the side that generally receives the most attention or that typically faces the direction in which the object moves; note that this is a partial function, since some objects do not have sides, e.g., apples and spheres; note too that the range of this function is indefinite in much the way that immediate_future_fn and immediate_past_fn are indefinite; although this indefiniteness is undesirable from a theoretical standpoint, it does not have significant practical implications, since there is widespread intersubjective agreement about the most common cases
subtype: sumo#back_fn (sumo#self_connected_object -> sumo#self_connected_object) a function that maps an object to the side that is opposite the front_fn of the object; note that this is a partial function, since some objects do not have sides, e.g., apples and spheres; note too that the range of this function is indefinite in much the way that immediate_future_fn and immediate_past_fn are indefinite; although this indefiniteness is undesirable from a theoretical standpoint, it does not have significant practical implications, since there is widespread intersubjective agreement about the most common cases

subtype: sumo#member (sumo#self_connected_object,sumo#collection) a specialized common sense notion of part for uniform parts of collections; for example, each sheep in a flock of sheep would have the relationship of member to the flock

subtype: sumo#probability_fn__probabilityfn (sumo#formula -> sumo#real_number) one of the basic probability_relations, probability_fn is used to state the a priori probability of a state of affairs represented by the given formula
subtype: sumo#in_list (?,sumo#list) true if the 1st argument is in the list; analog of element and instance for lists
subtype: sumo#closed_on (pm#function_type,sumo#set_or_class) a binary_function is closed on a set_or_class if it is defined for all instances of the set_or_class and its value is always an instance of the set_or_class

subtype: sumo#irreflexive_on__irreflexiveon (pm#binary_relation_type,sumo#set_or_class) a binary_relation is irreflexive on a set_or_class only if no instance of the set_or_class bears the relation to itself
subtype: sumo#partial_ordering_on (pm#binary_relation_type,sumo#set_or_class) a binary_relation is a partial ordering on a set_or_class only if the relation is reflexive_on the set_or_class, and it is both an antisymmetric_relation, and a transitive_relation
subtype: sumo#total_ordering_on (pm#binary_relation_type,sumo#set_or_class) a binary_relation ?REL is a total ordering on a set_or_class only if it is a partial ordering for which either (?REL ?INST1 ?INST2) or (?REL ?INST2 ?INST1) for every ?INST1 and ?INST2 in the set_or_class

subtype: sumo#equivalence_relation_on (pm#binary_relation_type,sumo#set_or_class) a binary_relation is an equivalence_relation_on a set_or_class only if the relation is reflexive_on the set_or_class and it is both a transitive_relation and a symmetric_relation
subtype: sumo#causes (sumo#process,sumo#process) the process in the 1st argument brings about the process in the 2nd argument
subtype: sumo#causes_subclass (pm#sumo_process_class,pm#sumo_process_class) the 1st argument brings about the 2nd, e.g., (causes_subclass killing death)
subtype: sumo#time (sumo#physical,sumo#time_position) means that temporal lifespan of the 1st argument includes the time_position in the 2nd argument, i.e. the 1st argument existed or occurred at that time_position; sumo#time does for instances of physical what sumo#holds_during does for instances of sumo#formula; sumo#located and sumo#time are the basic spatial and temporal predicates, respectively
subtype: sumo#holds_during__holdsduring (sumo#time_position,sumo#formula) means that the proposition denoted by is true at (every temporal_part of) the time_position
subtype: sumo#exploits (sumo#object,dl#agentive_physical_object) the object is used by the agent as a resource in an unspecified instance of process
subtype: sumo#has_purpose__haspurpose (sumo#physical,sumo#formula) the instance of physical has, as its purpose, the proposition expressed by the formula; note that there is an important difference in meaning between the predicates has_purpose and result; although the second argument of the latter can satisfy the second argument of the former, a conventional goal is an expected and desired outcome, while a result may be neither expected nor desired; for example, a machine process may have outcomes but no goals, aimless wandering may have an outcome but no goal; a learning process may have goals with no outcomes, and so on

instance: pm#wnMember (?,?) member relation in WordNet
instance: pm#sub_collection__subcollection (pm#collection,pm#collection) a partial order relation
instance: sumo#subclass__subclass_of (sumo#set_or_class,sumo#set_or_class) if the common reading conventions of parameters had been respected, this type would have been named subclass_of; every instance of the 1st argument is also an instance of the 2nd argument; a class may have multiple superclasses and subclasses
instance: sumo#subrelation (pm#relation_type,pm#relation_type) if the common reading conventions of parameters had been respected, this type would have been named subclass_of; every tuple of the 1st argument (r1) is also a tuple of the 2nd argument (r2), i.e. if r1 holds for some arguments arg_1, arg_2, ... arg_n, then the r2 holds for the same arguments; a consequence of this is that a relation and its subrelations must have the same valence
instance: sumo#sub_attribute__subattribute
instance: sumo#part__part_of (sumo#object,sumo#object) this type should have been name sumo#part_of to respect the common reading conventions of parameters; all other mereological relations are defined in terms of this one; it means that the 1st argument is part of the 2nd; note that, since part is a reflexive_relation, every object is a part of itself
subtype: sumo#proper_part__proper_part_of (sumo#object,sumo#object) the 1st argument is part of the 2nd but is not it; this is a transitive_relation and asymmetric_relation (hence an irreflexive_relation)
subtype: sumo#piece__piece_of__pieceof (sumo#substance,sumo#substance) a specialized common sense notion of part for arbitrary parts of substances; quasi-synonyms are: chunk, hunk, bit, etc; compare component, another subrelation of part
subtype: sumo#component__component_of__componentof (sumo#corpuscular_object,sumo#corpuscular_object) a specialized common sense notion of part for heterogeneous parts of complexes; the 1st argument is a component of the 2nd argument; examples: the doors and walls of a house, the states or provinces of a country, or the limbs and organs of an animal; compare with sumo#piece, another specialization of sumo#part
subtype: sumo#member (sumo#self_connected_object,sumo#collection) a specialized common sense notion of part for uniform parts of collections; for example, each sheep in a flock of sheep would have the relationship of member to the flock
instance: sumo#sub_collection__subcollection__sub_collection_of sumo#less_than_or_equal_to sumo#greater_than_or_equal_to
instance: sumo#sub_list__sublist__sub_list_of (sumo#list,sumo#list) the 1st argument is a sublist of the 2nd, i.e. every element of the 1st is an element of the 2nd and the elements that are common to both lists have the same order in both lists
instance: sumo#initial_list__initiallist sumo#subsumes_content_class sumo#subsumes_content_instance sumo#temporal_part sumo#before_or_equal sumo#sub_process__subproces sumo#sub_organization__suborganization sumo#geometric_part__geometricpart
