Abstract

Visualization of ontology alignment and ontology entity is becoming a method to help Solve the problem of semantic heterogeneity. This paper first introduces the basic concepts of ontology and ontology matching, and then illustrates the importance of ontology visualization technique. The existing partial visualization tools are discussed respectively in two aspects of visualization of ontology alignment and visualization entity on ontology. Finally, four researching directions on ontology visualization technique are pointed out for the future work.
