The HCONE Approach to Ontology Merging

by Konstantinos Kotis , George A. Vouros - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 21ST INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE , 2004
"... Existing efforts on ontology mapping, alignment and merging vary from methodological and theoretical frameworks, to methods and tools that support the semi-automatic coordination of ontologies. However, only latest research efforts "touch" on the mapping /merging of ontologies using the wh ..."

The approach described is based on (a) capturing the intended informal interpretations of concepts by mapping them to WordNet senses using lexical semantic indexing, and (b) exploiting

Web-Protégé: A Lightweight OWL Ontology Editor for the Web

by Tania Tudorache, Jennifer Vendetti, Natalya F. Noy
"... Abstract. In this paper, we present Web-Protégé—a web-based lightweight ontology editor. Web-Protégé is open source, uses the Google Web Toolkit (GWT) for the user interface, and Protégé for supporting ontology services. We used components of Collaborative Protégé to augment the ontology-editing env ..."

Ontology Construction for Web Services

by Aviv Segev, Quan Z. Sheng
"... Abstract. Ontologies have become the de-facto modeling tool of choice, employed in a variety of applications and prominently in the Semantic Web. Nevertheless, ontology construction remains a daunting task. Ontological bootstrapping, which aims at automatically generating concepts and their relation ..."

and their relations in a given domain, is a promising technique for ontology construction. Bootstrapping an ontology based on a set of predefined textual sources, such as Web services, must address the problem of multiple concepts that are largely unrelated. This paper exploits the advantage that Web services usually

Bootstrapping Ontologies for Web Services

Bootstrapping an ontology based on a set of predefined textual sources, such as web services, must address the problem of multiple, largely unrelated concepts. In this paper, we propose an ontology bootstrapping process for web services

A reuse-based lightweight method for developing linked data ontologies and vocabularies

by María Poveda-Villalón - In: ESWC
"... Abstract. The uptake of Linked Data (LD) has promoted the proliferation of datasets and their associated ontologies for describing different domains. Particular LD development characteristics such as agility and web-based architecture necessitate the revision, adaption, and lightening of existing m ..."

This thesis proposes a lightweight method for ontology development in an LD context which will be based in data-driven agile developments, existing resources to be reused, and the evaluation of the obtained products considering both classical ontological engineering

A.: Augmenting lightweight domain ontologies with social evidence sources

by Albert Weichselbraun, Gerhard Wohlgenannt, Arno Scharl - 9th International Workshop on Web Semantics, 21st International Conference on Database and Expert Systems Applications (DEXA , 2010
"... Abstract—Recent research shows the potential of utilizing data collected through Web 2.0 applications to capture changes in a domain’s terminology. This paper presents an approach to augment corpus-based ontology learning by considering terms from collaborative tagging systems, social networking pla ..."

Abstract Towards Automatic Merging of Domain Ontologies: The HCONE-merge approach

by Konstantinos Kotis, George A. Vouros, Konstantinos Stergiou, Karlovassi Samos
"... Latest research efforts on the semi-automatic coordination of ontologies “touch ” on the mapping /merging of ontologies using the whole breadth of available knowledge. Addressing this issue, this paper presents the HCONE-merge approach, which is further extended towards automating the merging proces ..."

process. HCONE-merge makes use of the intended informal meaning of concepts by mapping them to WordNet senses using the Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) method. Based on these mappings and using the reasoning services of Description Logics, HCONE-merge automatically aligns and then merges ontologies. Since

Web Service Composition based on Agent Societies and Ontological Concepts

by Faezeh Ensan, Mohsen Kahani, Ebrahim Bagheri

Finding suitable vital industrial resources may have been the aim of the previous decades; however these goals have now changed. The pervasive computing environments have overwhelmed humans with a vast amount of info ..."

The most recent developments have been the creation of the semantic web and the web services. The new challenge is to establish the basis for semantic web

Translating a Typical Business Process Modelling Language to a Web Services Ontology through Lightweight Mapping

by Gayathri Nadarajan, Yun-heh Chen-burger
"... Abstract: Bridging the gap between Enterprise Modelling methods and Semantic Web services is an important yet challenging task. For organisations with business goals, the automation of business processes as Web services is increasingly important, especially with many business transactions taking pla ..."

Taking one approach to address this problem, a lightweight mapping between Fundamental Business Process Modelling Language (FBPML) and the Web Services Ontology (OWL-S) is outlined. The framework entails a data model translation and a process model translation via the use

Ontology Merging using Answer Set Programming and Linguistic Knowledge

by Jürgen Bock, Rodney Topor, Raphael Volz
"... Abstract. With the increasing number of ontologies available on the web, the problem of merging ontologies from different sources to interoperate applications becomes important. This paper presents a novel approach for merging of light-weight ontologies based on answer set programming (ASP) and ling ..."
