International audienceInconsistency measure is an activity related to the ontology evolution. Being a coherent entity, an ontology must change and a modification operation in ontology could generate inconsistencies in its other parts. It is then important to measure these inconsistencies and follow the impact propagation. In this paper, we propose an inconsistency measure of an ontological change and its propagation effects on the other entities of the ontology. The measure is based on the weight of the dependencies between concepts in a community. Ontology is divided into communities which are a set of concepts that have preferential relations. To follow the impact propagation, we propose a process that uses the Change-and-Fix' approach to mark the impacted entities
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.
