In this paper, we present a heuristic mapping method and a prototype mapping system that support the process of semi-automatic ontology mapping for the purpose of improving semant...
Background: The Gene Ontology has become an extremely useful tool for the analysis of genomic data and structuring of biological knowledge. Several excellent software tools for na...

Background: Ontologies and taxonomies are among the most important computational resources for molecular biology and bioinformatics. A series of recent papers has shown that the G...
: In recent years, as a knowledge-based discipline, bioinformatics has moved to make its knowledge more computationally amenable. After its beginnings in the disciplines as a techn...
Most of existing ontologies construction tools support construction of ontological relations (e.g. taxonomy, equivalence, etc.) but they do not support construction of domain rela...

in ontology is quite abstract and often based on toy-examples to the point that the gap between the work of theoreticians and the needs of real applications is too wide to be cross...
Full comprehension of language comes about by understanding the meaning and the emotion behind the communication. Understanding the meaning of language is the goal of natural lang...

This paper proposes a definition, scope and topics of construction informatics--a discipline also known as `construction IT' or `communication and information technologies in...
An ontology is a formal conceptualization of a domain, specifying the concepts of the domain and the relations between them. It is however not a straight forward task to use this ...
