D1 the study of the general principles of scientific classification

D2 [ Arp et al., 2015 ]

  • A representational artifact taking the form of a graph with nodes representing kinds of things (universals) and edges representing subtype or subclass (is-a) relations among these types of things. The most familiar kind of taxonomy is the classification of living things: domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species.
