Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Orphan date February 2009 Ontology Libraries are storage areas for ontology computer science ontologies . There is no one ontology language computer scienceontology language , therefore ontology libraries are usually restricted to plain text file s or some XML storage format, mostly plain files again. Advanced solutions for ontology persistence in RDBMS s are now widely available. When the ontology representation is Resource Description Framework RDF based RDF, Web Ontology Language OWL dialects , those are also called triple stores because of the RDF statement triples. One exemplary solution can be found in the Java based Jena toolkit. Good libraries also support ontology query language s like SPARQL .

Ontology merging defines the act of bringing together two conceptually divergent ontology computer science ontologies or the instance data associated to two ontologies. This is similar to work in database merging schema matching . This merging process can be performed in a number of ways, manually, semi automatically, or automatically. Manual ontology merging although ideal is extremely labour intensive and current research attempts to find semi or entirely automated techniques to merge ontologies. These techniques are statistically driven often taking into account similarity of concepts and raw similarity of instances through textual string metrics and semantic knowledge. These techniques are similar to those used in information integration employing string metrics from open source similarity libraries such as SimMetrics .

Refimprove date August 2007 Expert subject Philosophy date November 2008 In philosophy , a core ontology is a basic and minimal ontology consisting only of the minimal concepts required to understand the other concepts. It must be based on a core glossary in some human language so humans can comprehend the concepts and distinctions made. Each natural language tends to rely on its own conceptual metaphor structure, and so tends to have its own core ontology according to W. V. Quine . It could be said also to represent the moral core of a human linguistics linguistic culture , and to self correct so as to better represent core cultural ideas. Such a core ontology is a key pre requisite to a more complete foundation ontology , or a more general philosophical sense of ontology. Most applicable to education teaching , e.g. the Longmans defining dictionary of the simplest meanings of 2,000 English words is used to define the 4,000 most basic English idiom s this is a core glossary of the English language , which permits access to the core ontology the idioms . Core ontologies is a concept that is used in informationscience as well. For example the CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model CIDOC CRM is referred to as a core ontology.

The goal of ontology computer scienceontology learning is to semi automatically extract relevant concepts and relations from a given Text corpus corpus or other kinds of data sets to form an ontology.

Citations missing article date April 2008 The term weak ontology has unrelated meanings in computer science and political theory . Once the political science meaning is expanded a little more, this article can be split into two and given a disambiguation page. Computer science A weak ontology computer scienceontology in computer science is one that is not sufficiently rigorous to allow software to infer new facts without an intervention by human beings the end users of the software system . This distinction does not apply to the ontology philosophical term , because in philosophy all inference is performed by human beings. Accordingly, from the point of view of computer science , philosophers do only weak ontology, except to the degree that their work converges with mathematics , Boolean logic , and other subfields in which automatic reasoning is known to be possible. By this standard which evolved as artificial intelligence methods became more sophisticated, and computers were used to model high human impact decisions most database s use weak ontologies. A weak ontology is adequate for many purposes, including education , where one is teaching a set of distinctions and trying to induce the power to make those distinctions in the student. Stronger ontologies only tend to evolve as the weaker ones prove deficient.
