Abstract. We propose a general method and novel algorithmic techniques to facilitate the integration of independently developed ontologies using mappings. Our method and techniques...
Although a feature model can represent commonalities and variabilities in a very concise taxonomic form, features in a feature model are merely symbols. Mapping features to other m...
We present Optima, a state of the art general purpose tool for ontology alignment that automatically identifies and matches relevant concepts between ontologies. The tool is supp...
At present, the researchers are making great effort to search for a general purpose resolution for image segmentation. Most of the approaches we are using now are somewhat ineffic...
—This paper deals with the Space Mapping (SM) approach to engineering design optimization. We attempt here a theoretical justification of methods that have already proven efficie...
