Ontology plays an essential role in recognizing the meaning of the information in Web documents. It has been shown that extracting concepts is easier than building relationships among them. For a defined set of concepts, many existing algorithms produce all possible relationships for that set. This makes the process of refining the relationships almost impossible. A new algorithm is needed to reduce the number of relationships among a defined set of concepts produced by existing algorithms. This article contributes such an algorithm, which enables a domain-knowledge expert to refine the relationships linking a set of concepts. In the research reported here, text-mining tools have been used to extract concepts in the domain of e-commerce laws. A new algorithm has been proposed to reduce the number of extracted relationships. It groups the concepts according to the number of relationships with other concepts and provides formalization. An experiment and software have been built, proving that reducing the number of relationships will reduce the efforts needed from a human expert.

“…Such as a variety of methodologies for building ontologies (Aussenac-Gilles 2001; Blazquez et al 2001;Holsapple and Joshi 2002;Kayed and Colomb 2002;Pinto et al 1999;Pinto and Martins 2000), methodologies for ontology reengineering (Klein 2001), methodologies for ontology learning (Kietz et al 2000), methodologies for ontology evaluation (Gruninger and Fox 1995;Guarino and Welty 2000;Kalfoglou and Robertson 1999), methodologies for ontology evolution Klein and Fensel 2001;Noy and Klein 2002), and methodologies and techniques for ontology mapping, merging, and alignment (Kalfoglou and Schorelmmer 2003;Noy and Musen 2000). The establishment of a consensual and unified methodology is difficult, as is suggested by the existence of a variety of methodologies, each developed for a specific purpose.…”

Abstract:Ontologies, taxonomies, and other semantic resources, are used in a variety of sectors to facilitate knowledge reuse and information exchange between people and applications. In recent years, the need to access multiple semantic resources has led to the development of a variety of projects and tools aiming at integrating existing resources. This paper describes the methodology used during the FUNSIEC project, to develop an open infrastructure for the European Construction sector (OSIECS). This infrastructure aims towards facilitating integration among Construction related semantic resources, providing a base for the development of a new generation of e-services for the domain.

“…Though various studies and experience exist on developing ontology building models, no standard methodologies, specifications and approaches exist in this field (Corcho, Fernández-Ló pez, & Gó mez-Pérez, 2003;Kayed & Colomb, 2002). In practice, it is difficult to devise models that are widely accepted by domain experts (Hui & Yu, 2005).…”

“…The question then arises of whether textual analysis can be performed to derive conceptual tags and hierarchies of ontology. When interpreting past findings (Gillam et al, 2005;Jiang, Ogasawara, Endoh, & Sakurai, 2003;Kayed & Colomb, 2002;Richards & Simoff, 2001;van der Vet & Mars, 1998), it is useful to understand that the challenge of building ontologies is not a single issue. We argue that these elicitation problems are logically distinct, with each having a different focus on how ontology editors should achieve the extraction goal.…”
