由于最近在线可访问的生物医学数据和工具的数量激增,查找和检索相关信息不是一件容易的事情。生命科学语义网的愿景解决了这些困难。语义网的一个关键技术是本体。近年来,许多生物医学本体被开发出来,其中许多本体包含重叠的信息。为了能够使用多个本体,它们必须对齐或合并。在本文中,我们提出了一个框架对齐和合并本体。此外,我们开发了一个系统对齐和合并生物医学本体(SAMBO)的基础上,这个框架。该框架也是迈向可用于对调整战略及其组合进行比较评价的一般框架的第一步。在本文中,我们评估了不同的策略及其组合的质量和处理时间,并比较SAMBO与其他两个系统。(C)2006年爱思唯尔B。版权所有© 2016
Due to the recent explosion of the amount of on- line accessible biomedical data and tools, finding and retrieving the relevant information is not an easy task. The vision of a Semantic Web for life sciences alleviates these difficulties. A key technology for the Semantic Web is ontologies. In recent years many biomedical ontologies have been developed and many of these ontologies contain overlapping information. To be able to use multiple ontologies they have to be aligned or merged. In this paper we propose a framework for aligning and merging ontologies. Further, we developed a system for aligning and merging biomedical ontologies (SAMBO) based on this framework. The framework is also a first step towards a general framework that can be used for comparative evaluations of alignment strategies and their combinations. In this paper we evaluated different strategies and their combinations in terms of quality and processing time and compared SAMBO with two other systems. (C) 2006 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
