RDFMutate : Mutation-Based Generation of Knowledge Graphs

This paper introduces RDFMutate, the first mutation-based tool to generate RDF knowledge graphs. RDFMutate enables developers to analyze the robustness of applications that operate on RDF, by generating variants of seed knowledge graphs, which are mutated according to a set of mutation operations and SHACL constraints. In contrast to existing tools to generate synthetic RDF graphs, RDFMutate provides a mutation-based approach that is accessible for both researchers and application developers, by providing a framework to define mutation rules and flexible selection of generated graphs.
