Philosophy, taken from the point of view of its problems and methods, is the collection of distinct philosophical disciplines. In fact, metaphilosophical analysis leads to rather troublesome questions: Are philosophical disciplines methodologically and/or essentially related and connected? Are particular philosophical disciplines scientific?

International Journal of Intelligent Information Technologies, 2005
To effectively use and exchange information among AI systems, a formal specification of the representation of their shared domain of discourse—called an ontology—is indispensable. In this article we introduce a special kind of knowledge representation based on a dual view of the universe of discourse and show how it can be used in human activities such

In conceptual modeling we need to consider a general level of abstraction where the domain of interest is formalized in an independent way with respect to the specific application for which the conceptual modeling process is performed. This leads to an integrated approach that takes into account knowledge about a domain and metaknowledge about a ...

An Ontology Architecture for Integration of Ontologies
2006Ontologies are expected in various areas as promising tools to improve communication among people and to achieve interoperability among systems For communications between different business domains, building an ontology through integrating existing ontologies is more efficient way than building the ontology without them However, integration of ...

The Ontology for Conceptual Characterization of Ontologies
2023Ontologies as computational artifacts have been seen as a solution to FAIRness due to their characteristics, applications, and semantic competencies. Conceptualizations of complex and vast domains can be fragmented in different ways and can compose what is known as ontology networks.

An Approach to Ontology Integration for Ontology Reuse
2016 IEEE 17th International Conference on Information Reuse and Integration (IRI), 2016In the last years, the large availability of data and schema models formalized through different languages has demanded effective and efficient methodologies to reuse such models. One of the most challenging problem consists in integrating different models in a global conceptualization of a specific knowledge or application domain.

Applied Ontology, 2011
Although the notions of function and functionality seem to be necessary tools – along with notionslike object, event and property – for making sense of the outside world, our understanding of functionsis still poor and fragmented. Serious theoretical work on functions and functionalities started in philos-ophy of science only about 40 years ago (see ...

Ontologies for Interoperability
2011The goal of this chapter is to help readers understand how ontologies can be used to improve interoperability between heterogeneous information systems. We understand interoperability as the ability of an information system or its components to share information and applications.

Ontological commitment and ontological commitments
Philosophical Studies, 2019The standard account of ontological commitment is quantificational. There are many old and well-chewed-over challenges to the account, but recently Kit Fine added a new challenge. Fine claimed that the “quantificational account gets the basic logic of ontological commitment wrong” and offered an alternative account that used an existence predicate ...

Ontological Categories for Geo-Ontologies
2021Despite their recent development (see Chap. 6), geo-ontologies still represent a complicated conundrum for most experts involved in their design. IT/computer scientists use ontologies for describing the meaning of data and their semantics to make information resources built for humans also understandable for artificial agents (see Chap. 2). Geographers
