Ontological Stratification

چکیده
This paper reports progress from the EEII research project where ontological stratification is applied within the study of openness. We explain a stratification approach to reduce the overall complexity of conceptual models, and to enhance their modularity. A distinction is made between ontological and epistemological stratification. The application of the stratification approach to agent system design is explained and illustrated. A preliminary characterization of the relevant strata is given. The wider relevance of this result for information infrastructure design is addressed: we conjecture that ontological stratification will be key to the model management and semantic interoperability in a ubiquitous and model driven information infrastructure [1].

This ontological theorization borrows insights from critical realism and post-structuralism to explore general features of rules. For instance: they under-determine fields of legitimate ...

متن کاملOntological stratification of virtual learning activities - Developing a new categorization scheme
Throughout the last 100 years instructional theory has developed many different educational models and learning scenarios. What schools are still missing is not only an educationally sound and complete categorization scheme, but also the application of these models to the new forms and types of virtual learning environments. Traditionally these educational scenarios lack detailed and finely gra...
متن کاملAn ontological hybrid recommender system for dealing with cold start problem
Recommender Systems ( ) are expected to suggest the accurate goods to the consumers. Cold start is the most important challenge for RSs. Recent hybrid s combine and . We introduce an ontological hybrid RS where the ontology has been employed in its part while improving the ontology structure by its part. In this paper, a new hybrid approach is proposed based on the combination of demog...
