基于XML Schema的航运领域本体构建方法

EDI电子数据交换作为一种信息技术,目前已经广泛应用在航运领域.然而由于各个国家乃至各个航运公司所用的EDI报文格式和系统都不相同,导致数据流通性差.为了解决航运领域信息共享存在的语义异构问题,本文将本体的概念引入到了航运领域之中,并且提出了一种基于XSLT转换技术和XPath路径语言的本体构建方法,实现了将航运业务的XML Schema结构文档中半自动化的转换成OWL语法的本体文档,建立了航运领域本体.实验表明,该方法能够大大提高本体的构建效率,并在一定程度上保证了本体的正确性.

Shipping Domain Ontology Construction Method Based on XML Schema

EDI (electronic data interchange), as a kind of information technology, has been widely used in the field of shipping.However, since various countries and various shipping companies use different EDI packet formats and systems, the ability of data circulation is poor.In order to solve the problem of semantic heterogeneity in shipping field information sharing, this paper introduces the concept of ontology into the field of shipping and proposes an ontology construction method based on the XSLT and XPath technology.It realizes the semi-automatization conversion from the XML Schema document to the OWL syntax ontology document and builds the maritime domain ontology.The experimental results prove that this method improves the efficiency of ontology construction, and ensures the correctness of the ontology.
