Abstract

Ontology refers to relationship-based hierarchical descriptions of concepts within a particular domain. Ontology, in the field of medicine, describes the concepts of medical terminologies and the relation between them, thus, enabling the sharing of medical knowledge. This paper aims to develop an ontology-based healthcare hierarchy and point out the research scope towards the chatbot application. The research scope includes the integration of the ontology-based healthcare hierarchy in the chatbot application by the establishment of relationships among individuals and real-world entities.
