Pattern-Based Mapping Refinement

چکیده
Semantic alignment between ontologies is a crucial task for information integration. There are many ongoing efforts to develop matching systems implementing various alignment techniques but it is impossible to predict what strategy is most successful for an application domain or a given pair of ontologies. Very often the quality of the results could be improved by considering the specificities of the ontologies to be aligned. In this paper, we propose a pattern-based approach implemented in the TaxoMap Framework helping an engineer to refine mappings to take into account specific conventions used in ontologies. Experiments in the topographic field within the ANR (The French National Research Agency) project GéOnto show the usefulness of such an environment both for a domain expert and an engineer, especially when the number of mappings is very large.

Postnatal development of spatial coding in the gravity sensing system
The critical maturation time of central otolith neurons in processing spatial orientations was examined in Sprague-Dawley rats. With the use of immuno-hybridization histochemical methods, we observed c-fos expression in vestibular nuclear neurons responding to transverse movement on the horizontal plane as early as P7 and those to antero-posterior stimulation as early as P9. In the inferior oli...

متن کاملEnhancing Ontology Matching using Logic-based Reasoning
Ontologies, as formal representations of conceptualizations of domain knowledge, have proven to be very useful in real world applications like the Semantic Web. Given the increasing number of ontologies which are independently developed, but which represent overlapping domain knowledge, there is an urgent need to integrate them. Ontology matching meets this need by (semi-)automatically finding ...
متن کاملAISIR: Automated inter-sensor/inter-band satellite image registration using robust complex wavelet feature representations
An automated registration system named AISIR (Automated inter-sensor/inter-band satellite image registration) has been designed and implemented for the purpose of registering satellite images acquired using different sensors and spectral bands. Sensor and environmental noise, contrast non-uniformities, and inter-sensor and inter-band intensity mapping differences are addressed in the AISIR syst...
متن کاملThe use of a computational tool to support the refinement of ideas
Introduction It is well established that the use of concept mapping has considerable educational benefits [1]. A computational tool to support concept mapping can enhance these benefits by providing features that make the mapping activity easier for students. In particular, computer-based concept mapping can more effectively support the refinement of ideas that leads to the revision of the stru...
متن کاملMethod for Data Models Integration in the Common Paradigm
The importance of use of the concept of refinement for heterogeneous multidatabase interoperation research and development is emphasized. Using this concept, the commutative data model mapping method [12] is reconsidered. The method provides for verifiable design of the data model mappings handling the models as formal objects in frame of an abstract metamodel. For such metamodel an abstract ma...
