Ontology Design Patterns in WebProtege
نویسنده
چکیده
The use of Ontology Design Patterns (ODPs) in ontology engineering has been shown to have beneficial effects on the quality of developed ontologies, and promises increased interoperability of those same ontologies. Unfortunately, the lack of user-friendly integrated ODP tooling has prevented the adoption of pattern use. This paper demonstrates an extension to the WebProtégé ontology engineering environment supporting the finding, specialisation, and integration of ODPs. The extension combines existing approaches with new developments in ODP search, specialisation strategies, and alignment.

Diagrammatic Ontology Engineering
Ontology engineering involves defining axioms to capture required constraints when modelling a domain of interest. Ontologies arise in many areas, with potentially a diverse range of end users involved in their creation. This leads to the requirement for accessible approaches to ontology engineering, as some stakeholders need not be fluent or trained in symbolic notations such as OWL. This pape...
متن کاملWeb-Protege: A Lightweight OWL Ontology Editor for the Web
In this paper, we present Web-Protégé—a web-based lightweight ontology editor. Web-Protégé is open source, uses the Google Web Toolkit (GWT) for the user interface, and Protégé for supporting ontology services. We used components of Collaborative Protégé to augment the ontology-editing environment with facilities for discussions and annotations. In this paper, we describe both the server and th...
متن کاملApplications of Ontology Design Patterns in Biomedical Ontologies
Ontology design patterns (ODPs) are a proposed solution to facilitate ontology development, and to help users avoid some of the most frequent modeling mistakes. ODPs originate from similar approaches in software engineering, where software design patterns have become a critical aspect of software development. There is little empirical evidence for ODP prevalence or effectiveness thus far. In th...
متن کاملHow to Document Ontology Design Patterns
Ontology Design Patterns are reusable building blocks for ontology modelling. As such, Ontology Design Patterns need to be understood by the humans who use them for ontology engineering tasks. In order to make it easier for ontology engineers to understand a previously unknown Ontology Design Pattern, the quality of the documentation of the pattern plays a central role. However, the question ho...
متن کاملUsing Linguistic Patterns to Enhance Ontology Development
In this paper we describe how linguistic patterns can contribute to ontology development by enabling an easier reuse of some ontological resources. In particular, our research focuses on the reuse of ontology design patterns and ontology statements by relying on linguistic constructs at different stages of the reuse process. With this aim, we propose the employment of lexico-syntactic patterns ...
