Ontology specific visual canvas generation to facilitate sense-making-an algorithmic approach

Abstract

Ontologies are domain-specific conceptualizations that are both human and machine-readable. Due to this remarkable attribute of ontologies, its applications are not limited to computing domains. Banking, medicine, agriculture, and law are a few of the non-computing domains, where ontologies are being used very effectively. When creating ontologies for non-computing domains, involvement of the non-computing domain specialists like bankers, lawyers, farmers become very vital. Hence, they are not semantic specialists, particularly designed visualization assistance is required for the ontology schema verifications and sense-making. Existing visualization methods are not fine-tuned for non-technical domain specialists and there are lots of complexities. In this research, a novel algorithm capable of generating domain specialists’ friendlier visualization canvas has been explored. This proposed algorithm and the visualization canvas has been tested for three different domains and overall success of 85% has been yielded
