Methodology For Ontology Evaluation

Ontology research today involves interdisciplinary collaborations, where contributions are drawn from researchers in the fields of philosophy (e.g., metaphysics, epistemology), linguistics, mathematics, logic, computer science, and the natural sciences. In philosophy, an ontology is "a system of categories accounting for a certain vision of the world" (Guarino, 1998, p. 2) and is independent of a particular language. In computer science or ontological engineering, an ontology is a engineering artifact that is a constituted of a set of terms and predicates that have an intended meaning or denotation, and are used to describe a certain reality (Guarino, 1998, p. 2). An ontology in this sense is commonly expressed in a formal system that includes a clear syntax and semantics, as well as rules for deduction.
