“…However, as Bateman points out "the path towards viable ontologies is one that is irreconcilably connected to natural language" [2]. With this view to ontology construction being largely adopted in practice [3], multilinguality is increasingly evident in ontologies as experts with various natural language preferences build knowledge representations in multilingual organisations [4], government regulations [5], medical practice [6], to just name a few. As a result, notable research can be seen in the area of multilingual ontology acquisition [7], linguistic enrichment of ontologies [8] and ontology localisation [9].…”

Using Pseudo Feedback to Improve Cross-Lingual Ontology Mapping

Translation techniques are often employed by cross-lingual ontology mapping (CLOM) approaches to turn a cross-lingual mapping problem into a monolingual mapping problem which can then be solved by state of the art monolingual ontology matching tools. However in the process of doing so, noisy translations can compromise the quality of the matches generated by the subsequent monolingual matching techniques. In this paper, a novel approach to improve the quality of cross-lingual ontology mapping is presented and evaluated. The proposed approach adopts the pseudo feedback technique that is similar to the well understood relevance feedback mechanism used in the field of information retrieval. It is shown through the evaluation that pseudo feedback can improve the matching quality in a CLOM scenario.

Similarly, not enough evidence exists with regard their role as contributors to multilingual web accessibility. This paper presents the initial results of a study carried out with the goal of clarifying localisers' involvement in the achievement of web accessibility. Data gathered suggest that (1) localisation experts should have web accessibility knowledge as part of their skills set; and that (2) localisers' participation in multilingual web assessment for accessibility would be of added-value for evaluators. RESUM (Cap a una definició del paper del localitzador en la consecució de llocs web multilingües més accessibles) Tenir coneixements sobre accessibilitat no constitueix habitualment un requisit per a desenvolupar tasques de localització de forma professional. D'igual manera, existeix poca informació sobre el paper que podria tenir el localitzador en la consecució d'una web més accessible. Les dades incloses en aquest article, recollides a partir d'una enquesta realitzada a experts en accessibilitat web indiquen que (1), els localitzadors haurien d'adquirir coneixements sobre accessibilitat com a part de la seva formació i que (2), les seves competències professionals podrien de ser rellevants durant l'avaluació de l'accessibilitat web de llocs web multilingües.

“…The second way is mostly used within the lexical semantics community, e.g. WordNet [MBFGM90], Termintography [KTT03]. Notice that both ways are (or should be) well formalized and map-able to first order logic, and thus can be seen as logical theories.…”

Abstract. This chapter presents a methodological framework for ontology engineering (called DOGMA), which is aimed to guide ontology builders towards building ontologies that are both highly reusable and usable, easier to build and to maintain. We survey the main foundational challenges in ontology engineering and analyse to what extent one can build an ontology independently of application requirements at hand. We discuss ontology reusability verses ontology usability and present the DOGMA approach, its philosophy and formalization, which prescribe that an ontology be built as separate domain axiomatization and application axiomatizations. While a domain axiomatization focuses on the characterization of the intended meaning (i.e. intended models) of a vocabulary at the domain level, application axiomatizations focus on the usability of this vocabulary according to certain application/usability perspectives and specify the legal models (a subset of the intended models) of the application(s)' interest. We show how specification languages (such as ORM, UML, EER, and OWL) can be effectively (re)used in ontology engineering.
