Canonical embedding relation type

Map one structure injectively into another by the standard structure-preserving inclusion or representation. This records a canonical copy, not necessarily literal set containment.

Directed semantics

Every direct mAtlas edge is an authored source → target assertion of this type.

Term code: canonical-embedding

Machine-readable record

/data/latest/relation-types/canonical-embedding.json provides this definition and the IDs of every direct relation of this type.

A path may traverse an edge backwards for connectivity, but that never reverses the authored source-to-target assertion.
