Ontology-Based Semantic Similarity Measure with Concept Lattice

Abstract:

Semantic similarity measure has always been one of the important contents in artificial intelligence. This paper puts the ontology as the research object, and measure the semantic similarity between two ontologies in view of concept lattice. Firstly, concept lattice is introduced to similarity measure, and the thought of the ontology-based semantic similarity measure with concept lattice was given. Next, the solution of the measure was described, which includes generating a formal context of heterogeneous ontologies, constructing the corresponding formal context of formal context to fetch the formal context in concept lattice, and using irreducible infimum theory to calculate the similarity value of heterogeneous ontology concept. Finally, we employed a sample to verify the measure method. The results showed the method can effectively compute the semantic similarity between the ontologies, and the method proposed is valid and feasible.
