Ontology construction of a certain domain is an important step in applying
the Semantic web. A number of software tools adapted for building domain
ontologies of most wide-spread natural languages are available, but
accomplishing that for any given natural language presents a challenge. Here
we propose a semi-automatic procedure to create ontologies for different
natural languages. Our approach utilizes various software tools available on
the Internet most notably DODDLE-OWL - a domain ontology development tool
implemented for English and Japanese languages. By using this tool, WordNet,
Prot?g? and XSLT transformations, we propose a general procedure to
construct domain ontology for any natural language.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
