CreaDO – A Methodology to Create Domain Ontologies using Parameter-based Ontology Merging Techniques

In this paper we present a model for building ontology translation systems between ontology languages and/or ontology tools, where translation decisions are defined at four

The KR ontology implemented contains only the ontology components that cannot be represented directly in the standard knowledge model of the target format, so that they are only

In this section, we show an analysis of ontology specification languages which have been and are widely used by the ontology community (Ontolingua, OKBC, OCML, FLogic and LOOM),

o Pattern-based extraction [Hearst, 1992; Morin, 1999]: a relation is recognized when a sequence of words in the text matches a pattern. For instance, a pattern can establish that

This prototype includes an ontology, which provides a simple mechanism to represent the environment and communicate its state, and two different plug and play user interfaces

In [15], a framework to semi-automate the semantic annotation of Web services (i.e. parameter description based on ontology concepts, semantic service classification, etc.)

The implemented SW gateway stores and gives access to multiple ontologies in an efficient way thanks to its indexing structures and ontology-accessing API (section 7.2). While

The resulting OWL DL ontology (in its primary version) consists of 205 concepts linked with 73 relations (OWL properties). A screenshot of this ontology is presented in Fig.1. The
