Recent work in Ontology learning and Text mining has mainly focused on engineering methods to solve practical problem. In this thesis, we investigate methods that can substantially...
Abstract. The task of information extraction can be seen as a problem of semantic matching between a user-defined template and a piece of information written in natural language. T...
Abstract. State of the art formalisms for distributed ontology integration provide ways to express semantic relations between concepts belonging to different ontologies. However, t...
Abstract. In this paper we apply a formal ontological framework in order to deconstruct two prominent approaches to navigation from cognitive robotics, the Spatial Semantic Hierarc...
This paper presents a specifically database-inspired approach (called DOGMA) for engineering formal ontologies, implemented as shared resources used to express agreed formal semant...
