General ontology learning framework

摘要

In order to reduce the costs of the ontology construction, a general ontology learning framework (GOLF) is developed. The key technologies of the GOLF including domain concepts extraction and semantic relationships between concepts and taxonomy automatic construction are proposed. At the same time ontology evaluation methods are also discussed. The experimental results show that this method produces better performance and it is applicable across different domains. By integrating several machine learning algorithms, this method suffers less ambiguity and can identify domain concepts and relations more accurately. By using generalized corpus WordNet and HowNet, this method is applicable across different domains. In addition, by obtaining source documents from the web on demand, the GOLF can produce up-to-date ontologies.
