AddictO Vocabulary is an ontology of unambiguous terminology for addiction and e-cigarette research. It's effectively a definition-focused dictionary expressed in RDF/OWL format - a documentation scheme suitable for Semantic Web applications, search engines, and machine reasoning.
Notably it started as "EcigO" terminology, but is now merged into a broader set of terms about addiction. It's developed and curated by Robert West, Sharon Cox, Caitlin Notley, Kirstie Soar, Janna Hastings, with funding from Cancer Research UK. The project started as response to quality variance in existing research.
(Unclear: there might some relation/integration with Qeios definitions, e.g. for "dual use". It's not represented in the RDF though.)
