Based on a logical reasoning process and a graphic user-defined process, Smartch provides four kinds of search services. They are basic search, concept search, graphic user-defined query and association relationship search. The experimental results show that compared with the traditional search engine, the recall and precision of Smartch are improved. Graphic user-defined queries can accurately locate the information of user needs. Association relationship search can find complicated relationships between concepts. Smartch can perform some intelligent functions based on ontology inference.展开更多

However, classical description logics are limited when dealing with imprecise concepts and roles, thus providing the motivation for this work. In this paper, we present a type-2 fuzzy attributive concept language with complements (ALC) and provide its knowledge representation and reasoning algorithms. We also propose type-2 fuzzy web ontology language (OWL) to build a fuzzy ontology based on type- 2 fuzzy ALC and analyze the soundness, completeness, and complexity of the reasoning algorithms. Compared to type-1 fuzzy ALC, type-2 fuzzy ALC can describe imprecise knowledge more meticulously by using the membership degree interval. We implement a semantic search engine based on type-2 fuzzy ALC and carry out experiments on real data to test its performance. The results show that the type-2 fuzzy ALC can improve the precision and increase the number of relevant hits for imprecise information searches.展开更多
