Ontology Reuse: the Real Test of Ontological Design [PDF]

Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence and Applications 355 (2022) 631-645, 2022
Reusing ontologies in practice is still very challenging, especially when multiple ontologies are (jointly) involved. Moreover, despite recent advances, the realization of systematic ontology quality assurance remains a difficult problem. In this work, the quality of thirty biomedical ontologies, and the Computer Science Ontology are investigated, from

Quantum prescriptions are more ontologically distinct than they are operationally distinguishable [PDF]

Quantum 4, 345 (2020), 2019
Based on an intuitive generalization of the Leibniz principle of `the identity of indiscernibles', we introduce a novel ontological notion of classicality, called bounded ontological distinctness. Formulated as a principle, bounded ontological distinctness equates the distinguishability of a set of operational physical entities to the distinctness of ...

An Ontology for Satellite Databases [PDF]

Earth Sci Inform (2017) 10: 417, 2018
This paper demonstrates the development of ontology for satellite databases. First, I create a computational ontology for the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) Satellite Database (UCSSD for short), called the UCS Satellite Ontology (or UCSSO). Second, in developing UCSSO I show that The Space Situational Awareness Ontology (SSAO) (Rovetto and Kelso ...

Semantic-Driven e-Government: Application of Uschold and King Ontology Building Methodology for Semantic Ontology Models Development [PDF]

International Journal of Web & Semantic Technology (IJWesT) Vol. 2, No. 4, October 2011, 1-20, 2011
Electronic government (e-government) has been one of the most active areas of ontology development during the past six years. In e-government, ontologies are being used to describe and specify e-government services (e-services) because they enable easy composition, matching, mapping and merging of various e-government services.

Transforming Geospatial Ontologies by Homomorphisms [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
In this paper, we study the geospatial ontologies that we are interested in together as a geospatial ontology system, consisting of a set of the geospatial ontologies and a set of geospatial ontology operations, without any internal details of the geospatial ontologies and their operations being needed, algebraically.

A Review of Multilingualism in and for Ontologies [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
The Multilingual Semantic Web has been in focus for over a decade. Multilingualism in Linked Data and RDF has shown substantial adoption, but this is unclear for ontologies since the last review 15 years ago. One of the design goals for OWL was internationalisation, with the aim that an ontology is usable across languages and cultures. Much research to

Merging of Ontologies Through Merging of Their Rules [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Ontology merging is important, but not always effective. The main reason, why ontology merging is not effective, is that ontology merging is performed without considering goals. Goals define the way, in which ontologies to be merged more effectively.

Ontology Revision based on Pre-trained Language Models [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Ontology revision aims to seamlessly incorporate a new ontology into an existing ontology and plays a crucial role in tasks such as ontology evolution, ontology maintenance, and ontology alignment. Similar to repair single ontologies, resolving logical incoherence in the task of ontology revision is also important and meaningful, because incoherence is

From the measurement problem to the primitive ontology programme [PDF]

, 2019
The paper retraces the development from the measurement problem to the primitive ontology programme. It assesses the contribution of the GRW theory to this programme and discusses the pros and cons of the GRWm matter density ontology and the GRWf flash ontology in comparison to the Bohmian particle ontology.

The African Wildlife Ontology tutorial ontologies: requirements, design, and content [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Background. Most tutorial ontologies focus on illustrating one aspect of ontology development, notably language features and automated reasoners, but ignore ontology development factors, such as emergent modelling guidelines and ontological principles. Yet, novices replicate examples from the exercises they carry out.
