This enumeration defines the constrained vocabulary for authored relations between Stencila research objects. It is based on MIRA, a discourse graph vocabulary for modular research objects with JSON-LD context published at https://purl.org/mira-science/mira.jsonld.

Variant @ids mirror the published MIRA term identifiers verbatim, which is why some are camelCase (mira:supportedBy) and others snake_case (mira:is_grounded_in).

Most relations come in directional pairs declared as owl:inverseOf each other in MIRA (e.g. Supports/SupportedBy). Both directions are authorable so that a relation can be declared on whichever research object is most convenient to edit; the direction is always semantically significant. Follows has no inverse in MIRA. RequestFor and RequestTarget are not inverses of each other: both have a request as their source and a request may declare both.

Use this narrower vocabulary on ResearchObjectRelation. Values map one-to-one by name to the corresponding discourse-oriented variants in GraphEdgeKind when document graphs are built. Variant descriptions are duplicated in GraphEdgeKind and must be kept in sync.

Members

The ResearchObjectRelationKind type has these members:

Member	Description
`Supports`	The source research object, typically evidence or a claim, supports the target claim.
`SupportedBy`	The source claim is supported by the target research object, typically evidence or another claim. Inverse of `Supports`.
`Opposes`	The source research object, typically evidence or a claim, opposes the target claim.
`OpposedBy`	The source claim is opposed by the target research object, typically evidence or another claim. Inverse of `Opposes`.
`Addresses`	The source claim addresses the target research question.
`AddressedBy`	The source research question is addressed by the target claim. Inverse of `Addresses`.
`Follows`	The source research object, typically a study or other research activity, was conducted following the target protocol.
`Grounds`	The source research object, typically a study or other research activity, produced and grounds the target evidence.
`IsGroundedIn`	The source evidence is grounded in the target study or other research activity that produced it. Inverse of `Grounds`.
`RequestFor`	The source request asks for the target work, such as a study or protocol execution, to be carried out. Not the inverse of `RequestTarget`.
`RequestTarget`	The source request concerns the target claim that the requested work may elucidate. Not the inverse of `RequestFor`.
