2. 1. Fostering User Involvement in Ontology Alignment and Alignment Evaluation

   Author : Valentina Ivanova; Patrick Lambrix; Nahid Shahmehri; Fabien Gandon; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Knowledge representation; ontology; ontology engineering; ontology debugging; ontology matching; ontology matching evaluation; user interfaces; human-computer interaction; large and high-resolution displays;

   Abstract : The abundance of data at our disposal empowers data-driven applications and decision making. The knowledge captured in the data, however, has not been utilized to full potential, as it is only accessible to human interpretation and data are distributed in heterogeneous repositories.

4. 2. Bioclipse : Integration of Data and Software in the Life Sciences

   Author : Ola Spjuth; Jarl Wikberg; Mark Wilkinsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bioclipse; integration; life sciences; bioinformatics; cheminformatics; chemoinformatics; eclipse; rich client; xmpp; qsar-ml; web service; standard; ontology; Bioinformatics; Bioinformatik;

   Abstract : New high throughput experimental techniques have turned the life sciences into a data-intensive field. Scientists are faced with new types of problems, such as managing voluminous sources of information, integrating heterogeneous data, and applying the proper analysis algorithms; all to end up with reliable conclusions.

   Abstract : This thesis is about whether it is a good idea to place monetary value on nature, to remedy the fact that we treat it as having no particular value to us humans, although it clearly has. The thesis is based on five research papers that can be said to position themselves on opposite sides in the debate on monetisation of nature. READ MORE

6. 4. Semi-automatic Ontology Construction based on Patterns

   Author : Eva Blomqvist; Kurt Sandkuhl; Henrik Eriksson; Ralf-D Kutsche; Enrico Motta; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

   Abstract : This thesis aims to improve the ontology engineering process, by providing better semiautomatic support for constructing ontologies and introducing knowledge reuse through ontology patterns. The thesis introduces a typology of patterns, a general framework of pattern-based semi-automatic ontology construction called OntoCase, and provides a set of methods to solve some specific tasks within this framework.
