چکیده

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 linguistic background knowledge. ASP provides a declarative execution environment for intuitive merging rules. WordNet provides broad linguistic knowledge that is used to identify corresponding concepts. We present a semi-automatic merging algorithm, where users can choose appropriate results from a set of suggestions.

Merging and Aligning Ontologies in dl-Programs

The language of dl-programs is a latest effort in developing an expressive representation for Web-based ontologies. It allows to build answer set programming (ASP) on top of description logic and thus some attractive features of ASP can be employed in the design of the Semantic Web architecture. In this paper we first generalize dl-programs by allowing multiple knowledge bases and then accordin...

A framework for structured knowledge extraction and representation from natural language via deep sentence analysis

We present a framework that we are currently developing, that allows one to extract knowledge from natural language sentences using a deep analysis technique based on linguistic dependencies. The extracted knowledge is represented in OOLOT, an intermediate format that we have introduced, inspired by the Language of Thought (LOT) and based on Answer Set Programming (ASP). OOLOT uses an ontologyo...

Technical Report: Adjudication of Coreference Annotations via Answer Set Optimization

We describe the first automatic approach for merging coreference annotations obtained from multiple annotators into a single gold standard. This merging is subject to certain linguistic hard constraints and optimization criteria that prefer solutions with minimal divergence from annotators. The representation involves an equivalence relation over a large number of elements. We use Answer Set Pr...

Merging DMUs Based on of the idea Inverse DEA

In this paper, we propose a novel method using multiple-objective programming problems to answer the following question: if among a group of decision making units (DMUs), a subset of DMUs are required to merge and form a new DMU with specific input/output levels and a predefined efficiency target, how much should be the outputs/inputs of the merged DMU? This question answered according to the c...

BIOQUERY-ASP: Querying Biomedical Ontologies using Answer Set Programming

We describe a software system, called BIOQUERY-ASP, that finds answers and generates explanations to complex biomedical queries over the available knowledge resources, such as, PHARMGKB, DRUGBANK, CTD, SIDER, BIOGRID, using the computational methods/tools of Answer Set Programming.
