Using ontologies to improve semantic interoperability in health data.
The present-day health data ecosystem comprises a wide array of complex heterogeneous data sources. A wide range of clinical, health care, social and other clinically relevant information are stored in these data sources. These data exist either as structured data or as free-text. These data are generally individual person-based records, but social care data are generally case based and less fo...
متن کاملHow Ontologies Can Improve Semantic Interoperability in Health Care
The main rationale of biomedical terminologies and formalized clinical information models is to provide semantic standards to improve the exchange of meaningful clinical information. Whereas terminologies should express context-independent meanings of domain terms, information models are built to represent the situational and epistemic contexts in which domain terms are used. In practice, seman...
متن کاملSemantic Interoperability Using Multiple Ontologies
There are now robust technical solutions to interoperate geographic information in a syntactic and schematic sense. But, problem with different meaning of geo-data from distributed geo-information sources still exists. The use of ontologies in semantic translation is a viable approach to overcome the problem of semantic heterogeneity. Also, from the technological point of view, mediator-based s...
متن کاملUsing Context to Improve Semantic Interoperability
This paper presents an approach to enhance interoperability between heterogeneous ontologies. It consists in adapting the ranking of concepts to the final users and their work context. The computations are based on an upper domain ontology, a task hierarchy and a user profile. As prerequisites, OWL ontologies have to be given, and an articulation ontology has to be built.
متن کاملFramework of semantic interoperability using geospatial ontologies
Semantics of geospatial information is necessary to ensure its interoperability and correct usage. Geospatial ontologies enable encoding such knowledge and enable reasoning mechanisms to estimate interoperability. The framework of interoperability for geospatial information using ontologies, presented in this paper, supports (i) building of ontologies, (ii) semi-automated, ontology-based mappin...
