Abstract

Existing approaches for ontology mapping are known of having limited accuracy, as they are basically based on generic schematic relations (such as Isa and Part-of), and ignore the usage context as well as the logic of the involved operation. To overcome this limitation, this paper proposes a novel approach for ontology mapping that uses concepts substitution semantics to resolve concepts incompatibilities in a context-sensitive manner. Experiments results show that the proposed approach is more accurate than existing generic ontology mapping approaches. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
