Terminology-Based Patterns for Natural Language Definitions in Ontologies
نویسنده
چکیده
Natural language content in ontologies is crucial to any human interaction with them, but scarcely available. Terminology science centers on best practices in domain-speci c natural languages. Hence, ontologies can bene t from the systematic approach of terminology to natural language de nitions. This paper proposes an Annotation Ontology Design Pattern named Natural Language De nition ODP that provides natural language de nitions for ontology classes. For this purpose, a (semi-)automated method for implementing this pattern combining ontology verbalization and information extraction is investigated herein and exempli ed in the domain of nance.

متن کاملAutomating class definitions from OWL to English
Text definitions for entities within bio-ontologies are a cornerstone of the effort to gain a consensus in understanding and usage of those ontologies. Writing these definitions is, however, a considerable effort and there is often a lag between specification of the entities in the ontology and the development of the text-based definitions. As well as these text definitions, there can also be l...
متن کاملCategorization of Semantic Roles for Dictionary Definitions
Understanding the semantic relationships between terms is a fundamental task in natural language processing applications. While structured resources that can express those relationships in a formal way, such as ontologies, are still scarce, a large number of linguistic resources gathering dictionary definitions is becoming available, but understanding the semantic structure of natural language ...
متن کاملA suggested Motivational Method for Teaching Scientific Terminology, With a Practical Example
Using a reductionist approach, the motivational method for teaching scientific terminology aims at breaking down terms and their definitions into separate components, i.e. morphemes and their semantic features, rather than establishing a connection between terms and their definitions as holistic units. In other words, the ultimate goal of this method is achieving “semantic motivation,” (as oppo...
متن کاملOntologies for Integrating Engineering Applications
In all types of communication, the ability to share information is often hindered because the meaning of information can be drastically affected by the context in which it is viewed and interpreted. This is especially true in manufacturing, because of the growing complexity of manufacturing information and the increasing need to exchange this information among various software applications. Dif...
