Construction d'une ontologie par transformation de systèmes d'organisation des connaissances et évaluation de la confiance

This paper presents an original method of knowledge base (ontology) creation from transformations of several sources of knowledge. These sources are derived from the knowledge organization systems (thesauri, taxonomies, etc.). The sources are weighted by a confidence score. The method is based on a module aggregating ontological design patterns. We have implemented this method in an agronomical context. We propose in this paper several weighted functions that we have evaluated from three sources: Agrovoc, TaxRef and NCBI. MOTS-CLÉS : développement d’ontologies, patrons de conception d’ontologies, sources non ontologiques, SKOS, système d’organisation des connaissances, confiance, agriculture.
