Project No.2. „Ontology-based knowledge engineering technologies suitable for web environment”. Project leader Dr.habil.sc.comp. Janis BARZDINS

To develop the ontology-based modelling technologies and tools for knowledge analysis suitable for web environment. Ontology-based modelling technologies and tools that are suitable for web environment will be developed for creating ontologies that are descriptions of the accumulated knowledge presented in formal yet very understandable way for the end user – in a graphical and natural language manner. Formal knowledge descriptions in a form of ontologies would also serve as a basis for the end user for formulating clear queries and depicting their results. For understanding data collected in a natural language, methods of semantic web and computational linguistics will be used, such as FrameNet situation formalization together with CDC (Cross Document Co-reference) approach.

To explore and develop semantic web technologies for knowledge formalization, reuse and sharing. Transformation methods for knowledge structure models will be developed to carry out the alignment of models, as well as methods for the analysis of models’ syntax, semantics, and structure should be developed in order to determine the degree of overlapping and compatibility between models and, finally, methods are needed for the separation of specific models, that allow sharing, reusing and automating the development of study materials and grading.

Automated analysis of knowledge structure models will be improved by extending the functionality of the I4S tool, which allows to make the acquired knowledge fully usable for the determination of the functional state of complex heterogeneous systems, risks associated with it and for the prediction of consequences caused by potential faults

Novel methods and algorithms are developed for solving the following tasks: assessment of the importance of elements, representation of logical operators, and interpretation of inference rules for the analysis of the knowledge about complex heterogeneous systems structures.

To develop the technology of e-services and e-health data processing solutions to increase their security and availability. Ontology-based knowledge access rights modelling technology, which allows to use the semantic technologies in areas where the increased security level of data processing solutions is needed, e.g., data privacy in the e-health, will be developed.

Ontology-based linked data technologies will be explored and developed for applications of e-management and e-health.

Methodology and demonstration prototype of the framework will be developed for the integration of semantic web services in traditional websites for the usage in various problem domains such as e-logistics, that enables permanent control of structural quality and interoperability of systems; thus allowing avoiding unwanted side effects of changes by timely detecting their likelihood, as well as to ensure flow of knowledge adequate to changes

Methods for accessing data of large volume that are based on models and domain-specific ontologies will be developed using a novel data query and visualization methods suitable for web environment. Method for application of business process models in analysing program run-time events will be developed to increase the level of information system security.

On July 8, 3 pm Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science will host a seminar in auditorium 210 , titled: „Development of ontology-based knowledge engineering technologies suitable for web environment” as part of the “Cyber-physical systems, ontologies and biophotonics for safe&smart city and society” (SOPHIS), a program funded by the National Research Program.
