Construction of the Ontology Design for Political Parties’ Ideological Characteristics

Abstract

We construct an ontology design of political parties’ ideological characteristics. The ontology is basically constructed from the concept lattice that has been built regarding the ideo-logical characteristics of the parties. Moreover, we also perform knowledge acquisition from pertinent studies concerning political parties’ identities. We also conduct correctness checking for the resulting ontology to check whether it is correct in accordance with the previously built concept lattice. The analysis results show that the ontology is correct with respect to the canonical basis of implication rules resulted from the associated formal context and concept lattice.
