LODE : A Legal Ontology Development Environment

چکیده
This paper discusses how to construct a legal ontology using a general ontology that has already been developed and a case ontology that has been automatically constructed on the basis of precedent cases input by the user. In order to construct a legal ontology, we consider to nd out the best correspondence to given a legal concept in a general ontology and a case ontology. Furthermore, we concider to re ne a legal ontology based on the comparison of a legal ontology with a general ontology and a case ontology, called a static analysis. We have been implemented a software environment to help a user construct a legal ontology based on these methods. The empirical results have shown that the environment works well in the eld of Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

Making Ontology Documentation with LODE
In this demo paper we provide a brief overview of the main features of LODE, the Live OWL Documentation Environment. LODE is an online service that generates a human-readable description of any OWL ontology, taking into account both the ontological axioms and the annotations, and ordering these with the appearance and functionality of a W3C Recommendations web page, namely as an HTML page with ...
متن کاملDeveloping a BIM-based Spatial Ontology for Semantic Querying of 3D Property Information
With the growing dominance of complex and multi-level urban structures, current cadastral systems, which are often developed based on 2D representations, are not capable of providing unambiguous spatial information about urban properties. Therefore, the concept of 3D cadastre is proposed to support 3D digital representation of land and properties and facilitate the communication of legal owners...
متن کاملA Legal Ontology Development Environment using a General Ontology
In developing large scale of expert systems, we must build several kinds of knowledge bases and integrate them. If we would build them independently, so much e ort would be done in order to maintain the consistency among them. Because a domain-speci c ontology would present the definition of concepts that often come up in them, it could be so helpful to support the task. As the scale of expert ...
