Requirements for the Treatment of Multilinguality in Ontologies within FAO
نویسندگان
چکیده
International organizations like FAO are intrinsically multilingual. FAO is currently experimenting with semantic-oriented technologies based on ontologies, with the purpose of integrating data across various information systems and providing better services to end users. However, in order for these technologies to be used in real-life scenarios, models and tools for accommodating and managing multilingual data are needed. This paper analyzes the requirements for the treatment of multilinguality as resulting from the experience we gained at FAO.

A Workflow for the Networked Ontologies Lifecycle: A Case Study in FAO of the UN
This document shows a preliminary framework for editing networked ontologies in the context of the NeOn project. The goal is to manage, in a collaborative way, multiple networked ontologies for large-scale semantic applications. This paper shows the main concepts on the editorial workflow and several lifecycle use cases. The ontologies produced with this framework will be used by the Food and A...
متن کاملModelling Multilinguality in Ontologies
Multilinguality in ontologies has become an impending need for institutions worldwide with valuable linguistic resources in different natural languages. Since most ontologies are developed in one language, obtaining multilingual ontologies implies to localize or adapt them to a concrete language and culture community. As the adaptation of the ontology conceptualization demands considerable effo...

Background and Aim: Ontologies facilitate data integration, exchange, searching and querying. Open Biomedical Ontologies (OBO) Foundry is a solution for creating reference ontologies. In this foundry, the design of ontologies is based on established principles which allow for their interactions as a single system. The purpose of this study is to determine the main features of ontologies develop...

Ontology is the main infrastructure of the Semantic Web which provides facilities for integration, searching and sharing of information on the web. Development of ontologies as the basis of semantic web and their heterogeneities have led to the existence of ontology matching. By emerging large-scale ontologies in real domain, the ontology matching systems faced with some problem like memory con...
متن کاملLabelTranslator: A System for Localizing Ontologies in Collaborative Settings
LabelTranslator is a system to semi-automatically localize ontologies in different natural languages: it extracts, translates and updates the lexicon of an ontology. Its objective is to support the development of multilingual ontologies, combining and exploiting the linguistic and semantic knowledge available on the Web to discover the translations of each ontology entity. We present the design...
