Current techniques of intelligent information access have surpassed the mere provision of static information. They attempt to overcome the limitations of traditional content delivery processes by exploiting information retrieval techniques. While the existing literature has extensively explored the adoption of these techniques, comparatively little notice has so far been taken of their application as ontology transformations. This paper aims to explore levels of intelligent information access from a practical perspective. Applying the theoretical framework of information retrieval techniques, we identify and define levels of information access and propose respective ontology transformations. For this purpose, we decided to use an ontology-editing tool for modeling, transforming and displaying information about the domain of Smart Homes.
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.
