First, each concept is represented as a specific probability distribution which is estimated from its own instances. Then, the similarity of two concepts from different ontologies is measured by the KL distance between the corresponding distributions. Finally, the concept-mapping relationship between different ontologies is obtained. Compared with other traditional instance-based algorithms, the computing complexity of the proposed algorithm is largely reduced. Moreover, because it proposes different estimation and smoothing methods of the concept distribution for different data types, it is suitable for various concepts mapping with different data types. The experimental results on real-world ontology mapping illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.展开更多

Semantic matchmaking plays a vital role in the automated and dynamic discovery process of Semantic Web Services and consists in measuring the semantic distance between a requested service and an advertised one. In this paper, an innovative approach to effectively compute the semantic distance between Ontology Web Language for Services (OWL-S) annotated services is proposed. First, an edge-based method for measuring the semantic distance between Web Ontology Language (OWL) concepts is presented. Then, a comparison of the proposed measure and the one presented in a recent related work is made in order to show that our method is more efficient and fine-grained. Finally, some equations to compute semantic matchmaking of service capabilities, which are expressed in terms of inputs and outputs, are presented.展开更多
