Units are combined using notions of dimensional analysis that often conflate the combination of units with algebraic operations on real numbers. In this paper we present an alternative approach that shifts the focus to the connection between the units of measure and the physical objects and processes that are being measured. One of the key features of this approach is that it makes minimal ontological commitments with respect to the TUpperWare upper ontology – the only new classes that are introduced are the classes for the units of measure. We propose correct and complete axiomatizations for combining units of measure, and the correct axiomatization of the relationship between the units of measure and the existing","PeriodicalId":90829,"journal":{"name":"Formal ontology in information systems : proceedings of the ...

On Decomposition Operations in a Theory of Multidimensional Qualitative Space 多维定性空间理论中的分解运算

{"title":"On Decomposition Operations in a Theory of Multidimensional Qualitative Space","authors":"T. Hahmann","doi":"10.3233/978-1-61499-910-2-173","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3233/978-1-61499-910-2-173","url":null,"abstract":"Mereotopological relations, such as contact, parthood and overlap, are central for representing spatial information qualitatively. While most existing mereotopological theories restrict models to entities of equal dimension (e.g., all are 2D regions), multidimensional mereotopologies are more flexible by allowing entities of different dimensions to co-exist. In many respects, they generalize traditional spatial data models based on geometric entities (points, simple lines, polylines, cells, polygon, and polyhedra) and algebraic topology that power much of the existing spatial information systems (e.g., GIS, CAD, and CAM). Geometric representations can typically be decomposed into atomic entities using set intersection and complementation operations, with non-atomic entities represented as sets of atomic ones. This paper accomplishes this for CODI, a first-order logic ontology of multidimensional mereotopology, by extending its axiomatization with the mereological closure operations intersection and difference that apply to pairs of regions regardless of their dimensions. We further prove that the extended theory satisfies important mereological principles and preserves many of the mathematical properties of set intersection and set difference. This decomposition addresses implementation concerns about the ontology CODI by offering a simple mechanism for determining the mereotopological relations between complex spatial entities, similar to the operations used in algebraic topological structures. It further underlines that CODI accommodates both quantitative/geometric and qualitative spatial knowledge.","PeriodicalId":90829,"journal":{"name":"Formal ontology in information systems : proceedings of the ...

Considering Collectives: Roles, Members and Goals 考虑集体:角色、成员和目标

In previous work a taxonomy of collectives was presented that allowed a user to distinguish the different types of collectives. The taxonomy classified each collective according to five criteria: membership, coherence, location, differentiation of role and depth. However the taxonomy is found to be lacking in terms of: addressing how changes in membership affect the identity of the collective, recognising the importance of role, and its sensitivity to temporal scope. Drawing from existing research this paper discusses how a collective can only be sufficiently characterised by considering the relationship between a collective, its members, the roles that they play and the coherence criteria (i.e., the reason that we consider a phenomenon to be a collective). Preliminary updates are suggested for the taxonomy that will allow collectives to be sufficiently characterised.","PeriodicalId":90829,"journal":{"name":"Formal ontology in information systems : proceedings of the ...

To illustrate our method, we apply it to two of the best known relation sets studied in KRR: Allen's Interval Algebra and Region Connection Calculus. We also show that systematic exploration of definitional possibilities can yield interesting insights into relation sets that were originally defined in a more ad hoc way, and opens the possibility for discovering new vocabulary for extending or refining existing calculi or for developing completely new calculi.","PeriodicalId":90829,"journal":{"name":"Formal ontology in information systems : proceedings of the ...

An Intelligent Data Analysis Framework for Supporting Perception of Geospatial Phenomena 支持地理空间现象感知的智能数据分析框架

{"title":"An Intelligent Data Analysis Framework for Supporting Perception of Geospatial Phenomena","authors":"Fernando Roda, C.

In order to facilitate this interpretation, the development of a multipurpose Intelligent Data Analysis (IDA) framework for supporting geographical data perception is proposed here. The framework makes use of semantic technologies and relies on a novel knowledge model composed by a foundational ontology (DOLCE Ultra-Lite, also called DUL), three core reference ontologies (the Temporal Abstraction Ontology or TAO, the Semantic Sensor Network ontology or SSN and the SWRL Temporal Ontology or SWRLTO) and two specific domain ontologies (the Urban Ontology or URO and the Geographic Data ontology or GeoD, developed by our team). They play different and well specific roles in the whole process of perception. The paper shows how to apply SSN to manage measurements of geographical regions provided by satellite images processing software. In a similar way, TAO has been extended to deal with the abstractions resulting from geographical data interpretation. An example shows a SWRL based implementation of a perception process that gradually abstracts geographical features and objects.","PeriodicalId":90829,"journal":{"name":"Formal ontology in information systems : proceedings of the ...

Large-Scale Reasoning over Functions in Biomedical Ontologies 生物医学本体中功能的大规模推理

Expressing functions in biomedical ontologies currently uses formal representation patterns that renders basic reasoning tasks to fall in complexity classes beyond polynomial time, thereby limiting the potential of using knowledge-based methods for data integration, querying or quality control. Here, we propose an alternative representation pattern for expressing knowledge about biological functions, together with a biological and ontological justification, which can be expressed using the description logic EL++ and implemented using the OWL 2 EL profile. To demonstrate the utility of our account of biological functions, we apply it to all proteins contained in the SwissProt database and evaluate its utility with respect to answering complex queries as well with respect to the classification and query times.","PeriodicalId":90829,"journal":{"name":"Formal ontology in information systems : proceedings of the ...
