Class: Relationship

An association class for characterizing the relation between two things with the role(s) the object had with respect to the subject. A relationship is always between two things only, but can be annotated with multiple roles (for example, a person having both an author role with respect to a dataset, and also being the person who is legally responsible contact for it).

    notes:
    - We do not declare a range here to be able to tighten the range in subclasses
      of class that need a particular range. This appears to be working around a linkml
      limitation.

      Typically, no explicit value needs to be assigned to this slot, because it matches
      the class type of a particular record. However, this slots can be used as a
      type designator of a schema element for validation and schema structure handling
      purposes. This is used to indicate specialized schema classes for properties
      that accept a hierarchy of classes as their range.
