Ontologies and rules are usually loosely coupled in knowledge representation formalisms. In fact, ontologies use open-world reasoning while the leading semantics for rules use non...
This paper presents a computational self-organizing model of multi-modal information, inspired from cortical maps. It shows how the organization in a map can be influenced by the ...
An important question for the upcoming Semantic Web is how to best combine open world ontology languages, such as the OWL-based ones, with closed world rule-based languages. One o...
This paper presents a lexical model dedicated to the semantic representation and interpretation of individual words in unrestricted text, where sense discrimination is difficult t...
Expert systems (ESs) are complex information systems that are expensive to build and difficult to validate. Numerous knowledge representation strategies such as rules, semantic net...
