创建受控词汇表(如用于知识组织和访问的本体)的需求已在各个领域得到广泛认可。尽管本体构建中不可或缺地需要全面的领域知识,但大多数本体构建软件工具都是为知识工程师设计的,而不是为领域专家使用的。现有的软件很少解决不同领域专家的意见和源文献中术语使用的差异。OTO软件是基于敏捷原则开发的。通过软件发布和用户反馈的迭代,添加了新功能并修改了现有功能,以使该工具更直观,更有效地用于小型和大型数据集。该软件是开源的,用Java构建。本体术语组织器(OTO; http://biosemantics.arizona.edu/OTO/)是一个用户友好的、基于网络的、促进共识的开源应用程序,用于通过将术语拖放到适当的位置来组织域术语。该应用程序是专为用户与特定领域的知识,如生物学,但没有深入的本体构建技能。具体来说,OTO可用于在任何领域中建立术语之间的is_a、part_of、同义词和顺序关系,这些关系反映了源文献中的术语使用情况,并基于多个专家的意见。组织的术语可以被馈送到正式本体中以提高它们的覆盖率。OTO上组织的所有数据集都是公开的。OTO已被用来组织从北美植物群和中国植物群植物群的30卷中提取的术语,以及不同分类群的一些较小的数据集。用户反馈表明,该工具是高效和用户友好的。作为开源软件,应用程序可以修改,以适应不同领域的不同术语组织需求。
The need to create controlled vocabularies such as ontologies for knowledge organization and access has been widely recognized in various domains. Despite the indispensable need of thorough domain knowledge in ontology construction, most software tools for ontology construction are designed for knowledge engineers and not for domain experts to use. The differences in the opinions of different domain experts and in the terminology usages in source literature are rarely addressed by existing software. OTO software was developed based on the Agile principles. Through iterations of software release and user feedback, new features are added and existing features modified to make the tool more intuitive and efficient to use for small and large data sets. The software is open source and built in Java. Ontology Term Organizer (OTO; http://biosemantics.arizona.edu/OTO/) is a user-friendly, web-based, consensus-promoting, open source application for organizing domain terms by dragging and dropping terms to appropriate locations. The application is designed for users with specific domain knowledge such as biology but not in-depth ontology construction skills. Specifically OTO can be used to establish is_a, part_of, synonym, and order relationships among terms in any domain that reflects the terminology usage in source literature and based on multiple experts’ opinions. The organized terms may be fed into formal ontologies to boost their coverage. All datasets organized on OTO are publicly available. OTO has been used to organize the terms extracted from thirty volumes of Flora of North America and Flora of China combined, in addition to some smaller datasets of different taxon groups. User feedback indicates that the tool is efficient and user friendly. Being open source software, the application can be modified to fit varied term organization needs for different domains.
