Probabilistic Ontology Learner in Semantic Turkey

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 5883))

Abstract

In this paper we present the Semantic Turkey Ontology Learner (ST-OL), an incremental ontology learning system, that follows two main ideas: (1) putting final users in the learning loop; (2) using a probabilistic ontology learning model that exploits transitive relations for inducing better extraction models.
