On Ontology Based Abduction for Text Interpretation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Text interpretation can be considered as the process of extracting deep-level semantics from unstructured text documents. Deeplevel semantics represent abstract index structures that enhance the precision and recall of information retrieval tasks. In this work we discuss the use of ontologies as valuable assets to support the extraction of deep-level semantics in the context of a generic architecture for text interpretation.

Content management and knowledge management: two faces of ontology-based deep-level interpretation of text
In order to make content management systems able to exploit annotations about content semantics for the management of content, this work proposes an approach for text interpretation that is built on the principles of logic-based abduction. The approach is presented in the context of a framework that allows for a deep-level interpretation of text. The research contributions of this work encompas...
متن کاملFormalizing Multimedia Interpretation based on Abduction over Description Logic Aboxes
The paper describes how interpretations of multimedia documents can be formally derived using abduction over domain knowledge represented in an ontology. The approach uses an expressive ontology specification language, namely description logics in combination with logic programming rules, and formalizes the multimedia interpretation process using a combined abduction and deduction operation. We...
متن کاملA Probabilistic Abduction Engine for Media Interpretation based on Ontologies
We propose an abduction-based formalism that uses description logics for the ontology and Horn rules for defining the space of hypotheses for explanations, and we use Markov logic to define the motivation for the agent to generate explanations on the one hand, and for ranking different explanations on the other. The formalism is applied to media interpretation problems in a agent-oriented scena...
متن کاملInterpretation as Abduction
Hobbs, J.R., M.E. Stickel, D.E. Appelt and P. Martin, Interpretation as abduction, Artificial Intelligence 63 (1993) 69-142. Abduction is inference to the best explanation. In the TACITUS project at SRI we have developed an approach to abductive inference, called "weighted abduction", that has resulted in a significant simplification of how the problem of interpreting texts is conceptualized. T...
متن کاملTableau-Based ABox Abduction for Description Logics: Preliminary Report
ABox abduction is an important reasoning problem for description logics (DL) with applications in diagnosis, manufacturing control, multimedia interpretation, etc. Several abductive reasoners for DL were designed and implemented using a translation to first-order logic or logic programming. Algorithms for ABox abduction based directly on native DL reasoning techniques, such as tableau algorithm...
