PLATO is a framework for identification of partonimic relation between the entities of the LOD cloud. It was developed particularly for entities of Linked Open Data. Moving beyond using owl:SameAs and identifying richer relationships such as partonimic relationship in LOD are needed to enable the answering of complex questions and to support more intelligent applications.

PLATO uses partonomy classification created by Winston[1] and mine the web to guide its approach. Winston created a categorization of part-whole relations which identifies and covers part-whole relations from a number of domains such as artifacts, geographical entities, food and liquids. It is recognized as one of the most comprehensive categorizations of partonomic relationships. Based on that PLATO uses heuristics to generate candidate pairs for part-of relationship using co-references and validate the pairs generated using queries over the web.
