“…Several models exist for ontology representation such as the lexical model. In this article, we use the lexical model formalized in [12]. A model of lexical ontology is defined as a set O = <S, L> where S is the structure and L the lexical level.…”

“… if H c (Ci, Cj) then pji = 1 and pij = 0 ;  if σR(Ci, Rk, Cj) then pji = 1 and pij = 0. We don't address in our approach attribute relationships and these values are justified by the results of our work in [12]. We considered that three relationships can spread impacts to the target entities.…”

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
