Bridging the Semantic and Lexical Webs: Concept-Validating and Hypothesis-Exploring Ontologies for the Nexus-PORTAL-DOORS System
Adam Craig, Seung-Ho Bae, Carl Taswell
The Nexus-PORTAL-DOORS System (NPDS) has been
designed with the Hierarchically Distributed Mobile Metadata
(HDMM) architectural style to provide an infrastructure
system for managing both lexical and semantic metadata
about both virtual and physical entities. We describe
here how compatibility between version 0.9 of the NPDS
schema, the new NPDS-interfacing ontologies, and the
domain-specific concept-validating hypothesis-exploring
ontologies allows NPDS to bootstrap the semantic web
onto the more developed lexical web. We then describe
how this system will serve as the foundation of a planned
platform for automated meta-analysis. Full Text
