Function pm#closed_exclusion (pm#type -> pm#type) the '/' link in the FT notation: the two linked types either are respectively identical to pm#thing and pm#nothing (they are "complement types") or they subtype a same type and form a complete subtype partition
subtype: pm#complement_type a supertype of owl#complement_of which can only connect RDFS/OWL classes
supertype: pm#exclusive_type__exclusivetype (pm#type,pm#type) in WebKB, use the '!' link
supertype: pm#relation_from_type (pm#type,*) type of relations from a concept/relation type, i.e. in RDFS terminology, from a class or a property
supertype: pm#relation_from_collection (pm#collection,*)
supertype: pm#relation_from/to_thing_of_common_kind (*) this type permits to categorize relations according to their signatures and hence offers (i) a concise way to set essential exclusion relations, and (ii) a systematic and easy-to-follow categorization
>part of: pm#relation__related_thing__relatedthing___related_with type for any relation (unary, binary, ..., *-ary) and instance of pm#relation_type
supertype: pm#what_relation (*)
supertype: pm#wh-/how_relation (*) this type permits to categorize relations according to the usual who/what/why/where/when/how questions ; this is a traditional but very subjective and ineffective way of categorizing relations
