Abstract

In this paper, we discuss problems related to the basic Semantic Web methodologies that are based on predicate logic and related formalisms. We discuss complementary and alternative approaches. In particular, we suggest how the Self-Organizing Map can be a basis for making the Semantic Web more semantic.
