Toward proactive social inclusion powered by machine learning

Emilio Serrano, Mari Carmen Suárez-Figueroa, Jacinto González-Pachón, Asunción Gómez-Pérez

Knowledge and Information Systems > 2019 > 58 > 3 > 651-667

The fight against social exclusion is at the heart of the Europe 2020 strategy: 120 million people are at risk of suffering this condition in the EU. Risk prediction models are widely used in insurance companies and health services. However, the use of these models to allow an early detection of social exclusion by social workers is not a common practice. This paper describes a data analysis of over...

Natural Language-Based Approach for Helping in the Reuse of Ontology Design Patterns

Lecture Notes in Computer Science > Knowledge Engineering: Practice and Patterns > Knowledge Patterns and Knowledge Representation > 32-47

Experiments in the reuse of Ontology Design Patterns (ODPs) have revealed that users with different levels of expertise in ontology modelling face difficulties when reusing ODPs. With the aim of tackling this problem we propose a method and a tool for supporting a semi-automatic reuse of ODPs that takes as input formulations in natural language (NL) of the domain aspect to be modelled, and obtains...

How to Write and Use the Ontology Requirements Specification Document

Mari Carmen Suárez-Figueroa, Asunción Gómez-Pérez, Boris Villazón-Terrazas

Lecture Notes in Computer Science > On the Move to Meaningful Internet Systems: OTM 2009 > Managing Ontologies > 966-982

The goal of the ontology requirements specification activity is to state why the ontology is being built, what its intended uses are, who the end-users are, and which requirements the ontology should fulfill. The novelty of this paper lies in the systematization of the ontology requirements specification activity since the paper proposes detailed methodological guidelines for specifying ontology requirements...

Common Pitfalls in Ontology Development

María Poveda, Mari Carmen Suárez-Figueroa, Asunción Gómez-Pérez

Lecture Notes in Computer Science > Current Topics in Artificial Intelligence > Knowledge Representation and Engineering > 91-100

The so-called Ontology Design Patterns (ODPs), which have been defined as solutions to ontological design problems, are of great help to developers when modelling ontologies since these patterns provide a development guide and improve the quality of the resulting ontologies. However, it has been demonstrated that, in many cases, developers encounter difficulties when they have to reuse the correct...

A Pattern Based Approach for Re-engineering Non-Ontological Resources into Ontologies

Andrés García-Silva, Asunción Gómez-Pérez, Mari Carmen Suárez-Figueroa, Boris Villazón-Terrazas

Lecture Notes in Computer Science > The Semantic Web > Ontology Modeling and Management > 167-181

With the goal of speeding up the ontology development process, ontology engineers are starting to reuse as much as possible available ontologies and non-ontological resources such as classification schemes, thesauri, lexicons and folksonomies, that already have some degree of consensus. The reuse of such non-ontological resources necessarily involves their re-engineering into ontologies. Non-ontological...

Scheduling ontology development projects

Data & Knowledge Engineering > 2016 > 102 > C > 1-21

In the ontology engineering field, key aspects of real-world business contexts are not normally taken into account. One of these crucial aspects is that of planning and scheduling. Software engineering practitioners use different approaches and tools for planning and scheduling software development projects, whereas their counterparts in ontology engineering encounter many problems to create project...

Methodological guidelines for reusing general ontologies

Mariano Fernández-López, Asunción Gómez-Pérez, Mari Carmen Suárez-Figueroa

Data & Knowledge Engineering > 2013 > 86 > Complete > 242-275

Currently, there is a great deal of well-founded explicit knowledge formalizing general notions, such as time concepts and the part_of relation. Yet, it is often the case that instead of reusing ontologies that implement such notions (the so-called general ontologies), engineers create procedural programs that implicitly implement this knowledge. They do not save time and code by reusing explicit...

Unified Access to Media Metadata on the Web

IEEE MultiMedia > 2013 > 20 > 2 > 22 - 29

The goal of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Media Annotation Working Group (MAWG) is to promote interoperability between multimedia metadata formats on the Web. Audio-visual data is omnipresent on today's Web, but different interaction interfaces and especially diverse metadata formats prevent unified search, access, and navigation. MAWG has addressed this issue by developing an interlingua ontology...

The landscape of multimedia ontologies in the last decade

Mari Carmen Suárez-Figueroa, Ghislain Auguste Atemezing, Oscar Corcho

Multimedia Tools and Applications > 2013 > 62 > 2 > 377-399

Many efforts have been made in the area of multimedia to bridge the so-called “semantic-gap” with the implementation of ontologies from 2001 to the present. In this paper, we provide a comparative study of the most well-known ontologies related to multimedia aspects. This comparative study has been done based on a framework proposed in this paper and called FRAMECOMMON. This framework takes into account...

A network of ontology networks for building e-employment advanced systems

Boris Villazón-Terrazas, Jaime Ramírez, Mari Carmen Suárez-Figueroa, Asunción Gómez-Pérez

Expert Systems With Applications > 2011 > 38 > 11 > 13612- 13624

This paper presents the development of a network of ontology networks that enables data mediation between the Employment Services (ESs) participating in a semantic interoperability platform for the exchange of Curricula Vitae (CVs) and job offers in different languages. Such network is formed by (1) a set of local ontology networks that are language dependent, in which each network represents the...
