Evaluating PSI Ontologies by Mapping to the Common Sense

Abstract

Abstract: The paper presents the results of mapping of PSI Ontologies family to the foundational ontologies: WordNet, SUMO and DOLCE. The two main outcomes of the presented research are: reported manual technique may be used as initial evaluation of ontology claiming to be gold standard for a new domain; and: usage of mentioned foundational ontologies for alignment of ontologies family of a given domain has shown differences between SUMO and DOLCE, two formal upper-level ontologies of common sense knowledge. The research reported was performed in the frame of our PSI project 1.
