Ontologies formalise how the concepts from a given domain are interrelated. Despite their clear potential as a backbone for explainable AI, existing ontologies tend to be highly incomplete, which acts as a significant barrier to their more…
Competency question (CQ) elicitation represents a critical but resource-intensive bottleneck in ontology engineering. This foundational phase is often hampered by the communication gap between domain experts, who possess the necessary…
In this study we propose a framework to characterize documents based on their semantic flow. The proposed framework encompasses a network-based model that connected sentences based on their semantic similarity. Semantic fields are detected…
Situation awareness is a crucial cognitive skill that enables individuals to perceive, comprehend, and project the current state of their environment accurately. It involves being conscious of relevant information, understanding its…
The Internet and the Web are now an integral part of the way most modern societies, and corresponding political systems, work. We regard Political systems as the formal and informal political processes by which decisions are made concerning…
We propose a novel framework to facilitate the on-demand design of data-centric systems by exploiting domain knowledge from an existing ontology. Its key ingredient is a process that we call focusing, which allows to obtain a schema for a…
We present DINGO (Data INtegration for Grants Ontology), an ontology that provides a machine readable extensible framework to model data for semantically-enabled applications relative to projects, funding, actors, and, notably, funding…
Trees -- i.e., the type of data structure known under this name -- are central to many aspects of knowledge organization. We investigate some central design choices concerning the ontological modeling of such trees. In particular, we…
Explainable Artificial Intelligence (AI) focuses on helping humans understand the working of AI systems or their decisions and has been a cornerstone of AI for decades. Recent research in explainability has focused on explaining the…
The future grid will be highly complex and decentralized, requiring sophisticated coordination across numerous human and software agents that manage distributed resources such as Demand Response (DR). Realizing this vision demands…
This paper presents a systematic survey on existing literature and seminal works relevant to the application of ontologies in different aspects of Cloud computing. Our hypothesis is that ontologies along with their reasoning capabilities…
Human conversations naturally evolve around related concepts and scatter to multi-hop concepts. This paper presents a new conversation generation model, ConceptFlow, which leverages commonsense knowledge graphs to explicitly model…
The logic of information flows (LIF) has recently been proposed as a general framework in the field of knowledge representation. In this framework, tasks of procedural nature can still be modeled in a declarative, logic-based fashion. In…
Nowadays, a huge amount of knowledge has been amassed in digital agriculture. This knowledge and know-how information are collected from various sources, hence the question is how to organise this knowledge so that it can be efficiently…
In applied mathematics and related disciplines, the modeling-simulation-optimization workflow is a prominent scheme, with mathematical models and numerical algorithms playing a crucial role. For these types of mathematical research data,…
Measurement of the semantic relatedness or likeness between terms, words, or text data plays an important role in different applications dealing with textual data such as knowledge acquisition, recommender system, and natural language…
Enterprise information systems have adopted Web-based foundations for exchanges between heterogeneous programmes. These programs provide and consume via Web APIs some resources identified by URIs, whose representations are transmitted via…
The Distributed Ontology Language (DOL) is currently being standardized within the OntoIOp (Ontology Integration and Interoperability) activity of ISO/TC 37/SC 3. It aims at providing a unified framework for (1) ontologies formalized in…
Information flow analysis is a powerful technique for reasoning about the sensitive information exposed by a program during its execution. While past work has proposed information theoretic metrics (e.g., Shannon entropy, min-entropy,…
Class algebra provides a natural framework for sharing of ISA hierarchies between users that may be unaware of each other's definitions. This permits data from relational databases, object-oriented databases, and tagged XML documents to be…
