Ontology mapping reuse based on neighboring concepts similarity
Min Liu · Computer Integrated Manufacturing Systems · 2010
To reduce the redundant similarity calculations and improve the mapping discovery,by considering the neighboring similarity among the concepts to be investigated and the concepts in the existing mapping which could infer the new mappings,an ontology mapping reuse algorithm was proposed.Firstly,a semantic bipartite graph be-tween the concepts'profile was established.Then,the neighboring concepts similarity from the best match of the bi-partite graph was obtained.Finally,inspired by the similarity transmission among neighboring concepts,the new mapping among the concepts was decided by their neighboring similar concepts'existing mapping.Experimental re-sults showed that the proposed algorithm could improve the mapping discovery.
