Ontology construction using online ontologies based on selection, mapping and merging

International Journal of Web and Grid Services (IJWGS), Vol. 7, No. 2, 2011

Abstract: The reuse of ontologies existing on the Web should be required to speed up ontology construction process. However, current ontology mapping approaches assume that two input ontologies are given not discovered from available semantic data of the web. In this paper, we present a new approach, which integrates ontology selection, mapping, and merging processes in order to minimise human mediation. Our ontology selection mechanism accepts a hand-crafted ontology as query ontology to search already constructed relevant ontologies. In addition, we develop a ranking method based on syntactic and semantic structure of classes to provide the best search result to the user.
