An approach to express measurement results in ontologies of facts

Éric Benoît, Cedric Deffo Sikounmo, Stéphane Perrin · Journal of Physics Conference Series · 2018

Ontologies give a convenient framework to model complex systems. They are especially efficient to perform reasoning on these systems but the alignment of ontology based model with the empirical world can be questionable. Considering that alignments of a model with the empirical world is performed by the way of a measurement, the uncertainty related to such process must be considered. The goal of this paper is to present a solution that includes measurement results in an ontology even if this one modifies the structure of the ontology.
