“…Their modelling approach was limited to a basic categorization of dances based on their associated accomplishments, such as dresses, festivals, regions, instruments, and so on, with no facility to add other information about the dances (i.e., one could only categorize dances using the ontology).

“…Chau and Thuy (2018) adopted the same approach for their Vietnamese folk dance ontology. Telli et al (2018) used a collection of images replicating dance movements in Vietnamese dances and created the ontology so that queries can be run to retrieve those images for specific dance movements. An ontology for traditional dances should be representative of the required accomplishments to reprise the dance, as well as the aesthetic feel of the dance and the associated religious or social or seasonal beliefs of the related community with the dance, all of which are missing in the consulted developed ontologies.…”

Purpose Systematic organization of domain knowledge has many advantages in archiving, sharing and retrieval of information. Ontologies provide a cushion for such practices in the semantic Web environment. This study aims to develop an ontology that can preserve the knowledge base of traditional dance practices. Design/methodology/approach It is hypothesized that an ontology-based approach for the chosen domain might boost collaborative research prospects in the domain. A systematic methodology was developed for modeling the ontology based on the analytico-synthetic rule of library classification. Protégé 5.2 was used as an editor for the ontology using the Web ontology language combined with description logic axioms. Ontology was later implemented in a local GraphDB repository to run queries over it. Findings The developed ontology on traditional dances (OTD) was tested using the dances of the Rabha tribes of North East India. Rabha tribes are from an indigenous mongoloid community and have a robust presence in Southeast Asian countries, such as Myanmar, Thailand, Bangladesh, Bhutan and Nepal. The result from HermiT reasoner found the presence of no logical inconsistency in the ontology, while the OOPS! pitfall checker tool reported no major internal inconsistency. The induced knowledge base of traditional dances of the Rabha’s in the developed OTD was further validated based on some competency questions. Research limitations/implications In the growing trend of globalization, preservation of the cultural knowledge base of human societies is an important issue. Traditional dances reflect a strong base of the cultural heritage of human societies as they are closely related to the lifestyle, habitat, religious practices and festivals of a specific community. Originality/value The current study is exclusively designed, keeping in mind the variables of traditional dance domain based on a survey of the user- and domain-specific needs. The ontology finds probable uses in traditional knowledge information systems, lifestyle-based e-commerce sites and e-learning platforms.

The aim of this paper is to highlight two important issues related to the annotation and querying of Intangible Cultural Heritage video datasets. First, we focus on ontology completion by annotating dance videos. In order to build video training sets and to enrich the proposed ontology, manual video annotation is performed based on background knowledge formalized in an ontology, representing a semantics of a traditional dance. The paper provides a case study on Malaysian Zapin dances. Second, we address the question of how can end-users efficiently query the datasets of annotated videos that are built.
