Download or read book Applications and Practices in Ontology Design Extraction and Reasoning written by G. Cota and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2020-12-02 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Semantic Web technologies enable people to create data stores on the Web, build vocabularies, and write rules for handling data. They have been in use for several years now, and knowledge extraction and knowledge discovery are two key aspects investigated in a number of research fields which can potentially benefit from the application of semantic web technologies, and specifically from the development and reuse of ontologies. This book, Applications and Practices in Ontology Design, Extraction, and Reasoning, has as its main goal the provision of an overview of application fields for semantic web technologies. In particular, it investigates how state-of-the-art formal languages, models, methods, and applications of semantic web technologies reframe research questions and approaches in a number of research fields. The book also aims to showcase practical tools and background knowledge for the building and querying of ontologies. The first part of the book presents the state-of-the-art of ontology design, applications and practices in a number of communities, and in doing so it provides an overview of the latest approaches and techniques for building and reusing ontologies according to domain-dependent and independent requirements. Once the data is represented according to ontologies, it is important to be able to query and reason about them, also in the presence of uncertainty, vagueness and probabilities. The second part of the book covers some of the latest advances in the fields of ontology, semantics and reasoning, without losing sight of the book’s practical goals.

This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of ontologies for data and knowledge organization has become ubiquitous in many data-intensive and knowledge-driven application areas, in science, industry, and the humanities. At the same time, ontology engineering best practices continue to evolve. In particular, modular ontology modeling based on ontology design patterns is establishing itself as an approach for creating versatile and extendable ontologies for data management and integration. This book is the very first comprehensive treatment of Ontology Engineering with Ontology Design Patterns. It contains both advanced and introductory material accessible for readers with only a minimal background in ontology modeling. Some introductory material is written in the style of tutorials, and specific chapters are devoted to examples and to applications. Other chapters convey the state of the art in research regarding ontology design patterns. The editors and the contributing authors include the leading contributors to the development of ontology-design-pattern-driven ontology engineering.

Download or read book Advances in Pattern Based Ontology Engineering written by E. Blomqvist and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2021-06-03 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ontologies are the corner stone of data modeling and knowledge representation, and engineering an ontology is a complex task in which domain knowledge, ontological accuracy and computational properties need to be carefully balanced. As with any engineering task, the identification and documentation of common patterns is important, and Ontology Design Patterns (ODPs) provide ontology designers with a strong connection to requirements and a better communication of their semantic content and intent. This book, Advances in Pattern-Based Ontology Engineering, contains 23 extended versions of selected papers presented at the annual Workshop on Ontology Design and Patterns (WOP) between 2017 and 2020. This yearly event, which attracts a large number of researchers and professionals in the field of ontology engineering and ontology design patterns, covers issues related to quality aspects of ontology engineering and ODPs for data and knowledge representation, and is usually co-located with the International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC), apart from WOP 2020, which was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Topics covered by the papers collected here focus on recent advances in ontology design and patterns, and range from a method to instantiate content patterns, through a proposal on how to document a content pattern, to a number of patterns emerging in ontology modeling in various situations and applications. The book provides an overview of important advances in ontology engineering and ontology design patterns, and will be of interest to all those working in the field.

Download or read book Empirical Ontology Design Patterns written by V.A. Carriero and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2024-01-26 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, knowledge graphs (KGs) and ontologies have been widely adopted for modeling many kinds of domain. They are frequently released openly, something which benefits those who are starting new projects, because it offers them a wide choice of ontology reuse and the possibility to link to existing data. Understanding the content of an ontology or a knowledge graph is far from straightforward, however, and existing methods address this issue only partially, while exploring and comparing multiple ontologies can be a tedious manual task. This book, Empirical Ontology Design Patterns, starts from the premise that identifying the Ontology Design Patterns (ODPs) used in an ontology or a knowledge graph will go some way to addressing this problem. Its main focus is to provide tools which will effectively support the task of automatically identifying ODPs in existing ontologies and knowledge graphs. The book analyses the role of ODPs in ontology engineering, placing this analysis in the wider context of existing approaches to ontology reuse and implementation. It introduces a novel method for extracting empirical ontology design patterns (EODPs) from ontologies, and another for extracting EODPs from knowledge graphs whose schemas are implicit. Both methods are applied to ontologies and knowledge graphs frequently adopted and reused, such as Wikidata. The book also offers an ontology which can be used as a basis for annotating ODPs in ontologies and knowledge graphs, whether manually or automatically. The book will be of interest to all those whose work involves the use or reuse of ontologies and knowledge graphs.

Download or read book Type Safe Programming for the Semantic Web written by M. Leinberger and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2021-10-14 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Graph-based data formats are a flexible way of representing data – semantic data models in particular – where the schema is part of the data, and have become more popular and had some commercial success in recent years. Semantic data models are also the basis for the Semantic Web – a Web of data governed by open standards in which computer programs can freely access the data provided. This book is about checking the correctness of programs that can access semantic data. Although the flexibility of semantic data models is one of their greatest strengths, it can lead programmers to accidentally fail to account for unintuitive edge cases, leading to run-time errors or unintended side-effects during program execution. A program may even run for a long time before such an error occurs and the program crashes. Providing a type system is an established methodology for proving the absence of run-time errors in programs without requiring execution. The book defines type systems that can detect and avoid such run-time errors based on schema languages available for the Semantic Web. Using the Web Ontology Language (OWL) and its theoretic underpinnings i.e. description logics, and the Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL) in particular, the book defines systems that can provide type-safe data access to semantic data graphs. The book is divided into 3 parts: Part I contains an introduction and preliminaries; Part II covers type systems for the Semantic Web; and Part III includes related work and conclusions.

Download or read book Services for Connecting and Integrating Big Numbers of Linked Datasets written by M. Mountantonakis and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2021-02-19 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linked Data is a method of publishing structured data to facilitate sharing, linking, searching and re-use. Many such datasets have already been published, but although their number and size continues to increase, the main objectives of linking and integration have not yet been fully realized, and even seemingly simple tasks, like finding all the available information for an entity, are still challenging. This book, Services for Connecting and Integrating Big Numbers of Linked Datasets, is the 50th volume in the series ‘Studies on the Semantic Web’. The book analyzes the research work done in the area of linked data integration, and focuses on methods that can be used at large scale. It then proposes indexes and algorithms for tackling some of the challenges, such as, methods for performing cross-dataset identity reasoning, finding all the available information for an entity, methods for ordering content-based dataset discovery, and others. The author demonstrates how content-based dataset discovery can be reduced to solving optimization problems, and techniques are proposed for solving these efficiently while taking the contents of the datasets into consideration. To order them in real time, the proposed indexes and algorithms have been implemented in a suite of services called LODsyndesis, in turn enabling the implementation of other high level services, such as techniques for knowledge graph embeddings, and services for data enrichment which can be exploited for machine-learning tasks, and which also improve the prediction of machine-learning problems.
