X-SOM: Ontology Mapping and Inconsistency Resolution
نویسندگان
چکیده
Data integration is an old but still open issue in the database research area, where Semantic Web technologies, such as ontologies, may be of great help. Aim of the Context-ADDICT project is to provide support for the integration and context-aware reshaping of data coming from heterogeneous data sources. Within this framework, we use ontology extraction, alignment and tailoring to find and solve conflicts due to data source heterogeneity. In this paper we present X-SOM: an ontology mapping tool developed within the Context-ADDICT project. The contribution of this high precision mapping tool is twofold: (i) a modular and extensible architecture that automatically combines several matching techniques by means of a neural network,and (ii) a subsystem for the (semi)-automatic resolution of semantic inconsistencies. Besides describing the tool components, we discuss the prototype implementation, which has been tested against the OAIE 2006 benchmark with promising results, and effectively exploited within the ContextADDICT project.

متن کاملMapping Analysis in Ontology-based Data Access: Algorithms and Complexity (Extended Abstract)
Ontology-based data access (OBDA) is a recent paradigm for accessing data sources through an ontology that acts as a conceptual, integrated view of the data, and declarative mappings that connect the ontology to the data sources. We study the formal analysis of mappings in OBDA. Specifically, we focus on the problem of identifying mapping inconsistency and redundancy, two of the most important ...
متن کاملTowards Mapping Analysis in Ontology-Based Data Access
In this paper we study mapping analysis in ontology-based data access (OBDA), providing an initial set of foundational results for this problem. We start by defining general, language-independent notions of mapping inconsistency, mapping subsumption, and mapping redundancy in OBDA. Then, we focus on specific mapping languages for OBDA and illustrate techniques for verifying the above properties...
