Domain Ontology Construction Using Web Usage Data
Thi Thanh Sang Nguyen, Haiyan Lu · Lecture notes in computer science · 2016
Ontologies play an important role in conceptual model design and the development of machine-readable knowledge bases. They can be used to represent various knowledge not only about content concepts, but also explicit and implicit relations. While ontologies exist for many application domains of websites, the implicit relations between domain and accessed Web-pages might be less concerned and unclear. These relations are crucial for Web-page recommendation in recommender systems. This paper presents a novel method developing an ontology of Web-pages mapped to domain knowledge. It will focus on solutions of semi-automating ontology construction using Web usage data. An experiment of Microsoft Web data is implemented and evaluated.
