OASIS — A New Tool for the Transformation of XML Knowledge Resources into OWL
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents OASIS – a new tool that enables (semi)automatic conversion of existing knowledge bases, semantic networks, terminological databases and various other resources to complex ontologies into OWL. The tool is implemented as a client of DEB (Dictionary Editor and Browser) which is able to store, index and efficiently retrieve lexical data. The architecture is based on XML and related W3C standards (XSLT, XML Schema, XPath, DOM). The main feature which brings the efficiency of the transformation is the extension of a standard XSLT processor with the ability to obtain additional data from the server through the mechanism of nested queries. This technique allows formulation of complex constraints needed in the conversion to OWL.

XS2OWL: A Formal Model and a System for Enabling XML Schema Applications to Interoperate with OWL-DL Domain Knowledge and Semantic Web Tools
The domination of XML in the Internet for data exchange has led to the development of standards with XML Schema syntax for several application domains. Advanced semantic support, provided by domain ontologies and semantic Web tools like logic-based reasoners, is still very useful for many applications. In order to provide it, interoperability between XML Schema and OWL is necessary so that XML ...
متن کاملInteroperability of XML Schema Applications with OWL Domain Knowledge and Semantic Web Tools
Several standards are expressed using XML Schema syntax, since the XML is the default standard for data exchange in the Internet. However, several applications need semantic support offered by domain ontologies and semantic Web tools like logic-based reasoners. Thus, there is a strong need for interoperability between XML Schema and OWL. This can be achieved if the XML schema constructs are exp...
متن کاملSupport for Interoperability between OWL based and XML Schema based Applications
We present in this paper a framework that provides support for interoperability between XML Schema based and OWL based applications. In particular, we describe how the information exchange between such applications is achieved, through the transformations of XML documents to OWL/RDF descriptions and of OWL/RDF descriptions to (parts of) valid XML documents. This functionality is built on top of...
متن کاملThe Automatic Acquisition of Product Knowledge in Recommender Systems
Knowledge based recommender systems can overcome the shortcomings of the traditional ones. To realize knowledge based recommender systems user requirements and resources on web such as information, products and services need to be described as knowledge uniformly. This paper explores the semantic description of products and the automatic acquisition of product knowledge from heterogeneous datab...
متن کاملXML Declarative Description with First-Order Logical Constraints
The expressive power of XML Declarative Description (XDD), a unified XML-based representation language for the Knowledge Grid, is enhanced by a well-defined mechanism for modeling arbitrary XML first-order logical constraints (FLCs)—a special kind of constraints comprising XML expressions and logical symbols. The resulting knowledge representation can uniformly express explicit and implicit inf...
