本体集成方法评价指标体系及其应用研究

通过本体关联方法和层次的分析,提出了本体映射、本体结盟和本体合并3种本体集成分类方法。建立了本体集成方法的评价指标体系,包括方法的语义强度、信息的丰富性、集成层次的深入性和方法的适应性4个方面,并在评价指标的基础上,对文法层,Chimaera,PROMPT,FCA-Merge和IF-Map等5种典型的本体集成方法进行了评价,对比分析了它们的优缺点,并以此为基础指出了本体集成方法的发展趋势。

Evaluation criteria of ontology integration method & its application

By analyzing ontology association and hierarchy, the ontology integration method was proposed which was classified as; ontology mapping, ontology alignment and ontology merging. And the evaluation criteria were put forward. Contents of evaluation criteria included the semantic intensity of the integration method, the richness of information employed, the depth of ontology components which would be integrated, and the adaptability of ontology integration method. Furthermore, based on these criteria, five typical ontology integration methodologies were analyzed and compared, including syntactic-level method, Chimaera, PROMPT, FCA-Merge and IF-Map. Their advantages and disadvantages were also pointed out. Finally, the development trends of ontology integration method were described.
