A Description of Legal Interpretations in Risk Management with the Use of Ontology Alignment Formalisms

The paper has two goals: firstly, we explain how ontology mapping formalisms can be used to denote the many interpretations of a given legal concept; secondly, we provide a short case, justifying the potential need of using such formalisms in modern legal knowledge models. This approach may be especially useful for coding knowledge about specific legal cases. Keywords. Risk management, legal concepts, semantic modeling, travel insurance, ontology alignment.
