Proposal for semantic metric to assess the quality of ontologies
D. Sathya, K. R. Uthayan · 2011
Existing web retrieve the relevant information based on its syntactic nature. But the information retrieval is not that much efficient. Semantic Web, the extension of current web is providing a solution to this problem. The semantic web depends on Ontology which provides an efficient meaning based search and information retrieval available through the web. Ontology is a test bed of semantic web, capturing knowledge about a certain area via providing relevant concepts and relations between them. Since the Semantic Web is heavily relies on Ontology we have to evaluate the quality of Ontology. Quality metrics are essential to evaluate the quality. Metrics are based on structure and the semantic level. At present the Ontology evolution is based only on structural metrics, which has not been very appropriate in providing desired results. This proposal concentrates on identifying the ontology, which ensures high accuracy. So the main aim is to design a Web interface for evaluating the quality of ontology by new semantic metric.
