RIO: The Regularities Inspector for Ontologies Plugin for Protégé-4
نویسندگان
چکیده
Syntactic regularities are repetitive structures of axioms in the asserted form of an ontology. In this paper, we present a Protégé4 plugin based on the RIO (Regularities Inspector for Ontologies) framework, which detects such regularities in ontologies using cluster analysis. The RIO plugin is an open source tool for visualising syntactic regularities in ontologies; the user can load them in Protégé4 and view clusters of similar entities, generalisations describing the clusters and abstracting axioms. The RIO plugin can be used for gaining an intuition about the embedded patterns in ontologies and deviations from these patterns. Availability: the RIO plugin is available for download from http: //riotool.sourceforge.net/.

Analysing Syntactic Regularities in Ontologies
Syntactic regularities are repetitive structures of axioms in the asserted form of an ontology. The Regularity Inspector for Ontologies (RIO) is a framework for detecting such regularities in ontologies using cluster analysis. Detection of syntactic regularities can be used to identify parts of an ontology that have a similar syntactic structure, and could therefore provide an intuition of thei...
متن کاملProSÉ: A Protégé plugin for Reusing Ontologies, Safe and Économique
We have developed ProSÉ, a Protégé 4 plugin for Reusing Ontologies: Safe and Économique. This plug-in extends Protégé with the necessary features to support the underlying formalisms to reuse ontologies in a safe and economic way. Safety guarantees that the semantics of imported concepts is not changed and economic guarantees that only the relevant part of the ontology will be imported.
متن کاملThe OWL Explanation Workbench: A toolkit for working with justifications for entailments in OWL ontologies
In this article we present the Explanation Workbench, a library and tool for working with justification-based explanations of entailments in OWL ontologies. The workbench comprises a software library and Protégé plugin. The library can be used in standalone OWL API based applications that require the ability to generate and consume justifications. The Protégé plugin, which is underpinned by the...
متن کاملOntoCheck: verifying ontology naming conventions and metadata completeness in Protégé 4
BACKGROUND Although policy providers have outlined minimal metadata guidelines and naming conventions, ontologies of today still display inter- and intra-ontology heterogeneities in class labelling schemes and metadata completeness. This fact is at least partially due to missing or inappropriate tools. Software support can ease this situation and contribute to overall ontology consistency and q...
متن کاملOntoComP: A Protégé Plugin for Completing OWL Ontologies
We describe OntoComP, a Protégé 4 plugin that supports ontology engineers in completing OWL ontologies. More precisely, OntoComP supports an ontology engineer in checking whether an ontology contains all the relevant information about the application domain, and in extending the ontology appropriately if this is not the case. It acquires complete knowledge about the application domain efficient...
