IKAT: A Tool for Incremental Development of Ontologies through Versions
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper an ontology-based knowledge acquisition tool is presented. This work is focused on the incremental development of ontologies and aims to help with the creation and maintenance of knowledge-based systems. The tool uses the version concept to implement the evolution of the ontologies. IKAT facilitates the development of ontologies through versions propagating automatically changes to the knowledge bases built based on them. An analysis of the possible operations upon ontologies has been carried out, and as a result a set of plausible operations has been chosen and their treatment implemented.

Background and Aim: Ontologies facilitate data integration, exchange, searching and querying. Open Biomedical Ontologies (OBO) Foundry is a solution for creating reference ontologies. In this foundry, the design of ontologies is based on established principles which allow for their interactions as a single system. The purpose of this study is to determine the main features of ontologies develop...
متن کاملHistory Matters: Incremental Ontology Reasoning Using Modules
The development of ontologies involves continuous but relatively small modifications. Existing ontology reasoners, however, do not take advantage of the similarities between different versions of an ontology. In this paper, we propose a technique for incremental reasoning—that is, reasoning that reuses information obtained from previous versions of an ontology—based on the notion of a module. O...

Ontology is a useful tool for organizing resources and on the other hand is a useful tool for the knowledge representation. With the development of Semantic Web technologies, build and create ontologies to expedite the process, it is necessary. The aim of study is explaining the situation methodology, designing scientometrics conceptual model, and steps of its ontology construction as Scientome...
متن کاملTracking Changes During Ontology Evolution
As ontology development becomes a collaborative process, developers face the problem of maintaining versions of ontologies akin to maintaining versions of software code or versions of documents in large projects. Traditional versioning systems enable users to compare versions, examine changes, and accept or reject changes. However, while versioning systems treat software code and text documents...
متن کاملOntology Versioning as an Element of an Ontology-Management Framework
As ontology development becomes a more ubiquitous and collaborative process, the developers face the problem of managing multiple ontologies: comparing, aligning, and merging them, maintaining versions, translating between different formalisms. We present a uniform framework where the users can do many of this tasks, leveraging data and algorithms developed for one tool in another. We describe ...
