Abstract

While building the large-scale domain ontology, the traditional manually-based construction method is low efficient and not feasible. In order to construct the large scale domain-ontology automatically; therefore, proposed a two stage method for large scale Chinese domain-ontology automatic construction by merging the thesaurus and online encyclopedia together. On the first stage, fuzzy mapping the thesaurus to OWL and construct the domain rough-ontology; on the second stage, including the following steps: (i) Concept Mapping and Pruning, (ii) deciding attribute from Chinese encyclopedia and (iii) rough-ontology self-Adaptive and expansion. Practice has proved that the system has the feasibility and robustness on achieving the large scale domain ontology automatic and rapid construction.
