Count entities without labels

These examples show how to count the entities in your VIVO that do not have labels.  In each query, the entities of interest are selected using type, then OPTIONAL is used to include entities with and without labels, FILTER is used to select only those results for which there is no label value, that is, ?label is not bound.

The resulting collection of entities is counted using COUNT(DISTINCT ?s) in the SELECT statement.

The same pattern can be used to count grants (vivo:Grant), organizations (foaf:Organization), or people (foaf:Person) with labels.

Code Block
titleFind Agents Count agents without labels
SELECT count(COUNT(DISTINCT ?s) AS ?count)
WHERE {
    ?s rdf:type foaf:Agent .
    OPTIONAL {?s rdfs:label ?label .}
    FILTER(!bound(?label))
}


Code Block
titleCount grants information resources without labels
SELECT count(COUNT(DISTINCT ?s) AS ?count)
WHERE {
    ?s rdf:type vivo:GrantInformationResource .
    OPTIONAL {?s rdfs:label ?label .}
    FILTER(!bound(?label))
}

 

Using a nested query to get multiple counts

The above queries can be combined in a single query which returns multiple counts. 

Code Block
titleCount Positions without labelsUsing a nested query to get multiple counts
SELECT ?count_agents ?count_information_resources
WHERE {
    {
    SELECT (COUNT(DISTINCT ?s) AS ?count_agents)
    SELECT count(?s)
WHERE {
        ?s rdf:type vivofoaf:PositionAgent .
        OPTIONAL {?s rdfs:label ?label .}
	        FILTER(!bound(?label))
    }
}
Code Block
titleCount Publications without Labels
SELECT count(?s)
    }


    {
    SELECT (COUNT(DISTINCT ?s) AS ?count_information_resources)
    WHERE {
        ?s rdf:type vivo:InformationResource .
        OPTIONAL {?s rdfs:label ?label .}
        FILTER(!bound(?label))
    }
    }
