A Consensus-Based Method for Solving Concept-Level Conflict in Ontology Integration

摘要

Ontology reuse has been an important factor in developing shared knowledge in Semantic Web. The ontology reuse enables knowledge sharing more easily between intelligent ontology-based systems. However, this cannot completely reduce conflict potentials in ontology integration. This paper presents a method based on the consensus theory and a evaluation function of similarity measure between concepts which is used for a proposed algorithm for ontology integration at the concept level.
