Designing the Ontology of XML Documents Semi-automatically

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 3644))

Abstract

Recently as XML is becoming the standard of exchanging web documents and public documentations, XML data are increasing in many areas. And the semantic web based on the ontology is appearing for the exact information retrieval. The ontology for not only the text data but also XML data is being required. However, the existing ontology has been constructed manually and it is time and cost consuming. Therefore in this paper, we propose the semi-automatic ontology generation method using the data mining technique, the association rules. Applying the association rules to the XML documents, we intend to find out the conceptual relationships to construct the ontology. Using the conceptual ontology domain level extracted from the XML documents, we construct the ontology by using XML Topic Maps (XTM) automatically.
