We in this paper propose a semantic search system using the basic ontology in Korean medicine field. The basic ontology provides a formalization of medicinal materials, formulas, and diseases of Korean medicine. Recently, many studies for the semantic search system have been proposed. However, they do not support the semantic search and reasoning in the domain of Korean medicine because they do not have the Korean medicine ontology. Our system provides the semantic search features of semantic keyword recommendation, associated information browsing, and ontology reasoning based on the basic ontology. In addition, they also have the features of ontology search of a form of table and graph, synonym search, and external Open API supports. The general search engines usually provide search results for the simple keyword, while our system can also provide the associated information with respect to search results by using ontology so that can recommend more exact results to users.

We in this paper design and implement a traditional korean medicine diagnosis system based on basic ontology. If doctors put the symptoms or tongues or pulses of a patient in the diagnosis system, they can be recommended for the diagnosis results. To support the doctors decision, the diagnosis system make the inference based on the basic ontology and compute the similarity between symptoms of patient and those of ontology. The diagnosis systems also provide the learning mechanism about diagnosis results which save the results in the ontology and reuse them in the next diagnosis. Thus, doctors can share their knowledge for the diagnosis by exchanging their ontology each other. In future, we will expand the knowledge of the basic ontology continuously so that doctors can get the more accurate diagnosis results. We also implement the prescription function and integrate it to the diagnosis system.

This study proposed an SCA advice system. It is an ontology-based recommender that provides advice on appropriate computer curricula based on the behavior of high school students. The three computer curricula at Chiang Mai Rajabhat University include computer science (CS), information technology (IT), and web programming and security (WEB). This study aims to design the ontology framework for an SCA advice system. The system considers three core ontologies: student, computer-curriculum, and advice. After analyzing student behaviors, the behavior types of CS, IT, and WEB were determined to be SB-2, SB-1, and SB-5, respectively. All subjects in these three curricula were analyzed and grouped into seven groups. Their curricula were synthesized in terms of basic skills, basic knowledge, and characteristics. Finally, advice results can be obtained by consolidating the curriculum nature of the CS, IT, and WEB curricula.

Methodology of ontology building based on Web resources will not only reduce significantly the ontology construction period, but also enhance the quality of the ontology. Remarkable progress has been achieved in this regard, but they encounter similar difficulties, such as the Web data extraction and knowledge acquisition. This paper researches on the characteristics of ontology construction data, including dynamics, largeness, variation and openness and other features, and the fundamental issue of ontology construction - formalized representation method. Then, the key technologies used in and the difficulties with ontology construction are summarized. A software Model-OntoMaker (Ontology Maker) is designed. The model is innovative in two regards: (1) the improvement of generality: the meta learning machine will dynamically pick appropriate ontology learning methodologies for data of different domains, thus optimizing the results; (2) the merged processing of (semi-) structural and non-structural data. In addition, as known to all wetland researchers, information sharing is vital to wetland exploitation and protection, while wetland ontology construction is the basic task for information sharing. OntoMaker constructs the wetland ontologies, and the model in this work can also be referred to other environmental domains.

Currently, basic simple search techniques for curriculum are being implemented. But curriculum information retrieval applying ontology technologies is still weak level. In this paper, the curriculum of university was divided into the liberal arts and majors, and we proposed frame model by these methodes and designed management system to construct ontology. This management system was composed of ontology input system and ontology web service system. Ontology input system constructed curriculum of department into ontology by administrator and we designed web service system to retrieve curriculum by students. We validated ontology designed for curriculum using ontology tool.

In order to improve the integrating accuracy and to elevate the serviceability of the KM(Korean Medicine) ontology constructed by the Korea Institute of Oriental Medicine, this research simplified the many-to-many corresponding relationship between groups of methods of treatment and groups of accompanied symptoms from disease ontology and categorized systematically the relationship. We first extracted the combinations of methods of treatment and accompanied symptoms from the KM ontology, then categorized the attributes of combinations that their frequencies were over 10 times by analyzing KM terms definition and the basic KM theory. We constructed the classification hierarchy having 14 kinds of classification in 4 steps and extracted 450 meaningful combinations. This research improved the integrating accuracy and elevated the serviceability of KM information by the classification system.

With the advancement of information technology and increasing diversity in medical field, there are ongoing researches on ontology based intelligent medical system in Oriental medicine field. Intelligent diagnostic support system uses ontology to give a structure to complex medical knowledge and personal medical history so that we can make diagnosis more scientific, and provide better medical services. In this paper, we suggest an ontology that structuralize three knowledge types basic medical data, clinical trial data, and personal health information, which can be used as important information for individually tailored diagnosis. Especially in Oriental medicine diagnosis, both patient's symptoms of illness and physical constitution play a great role; it can lead to distinct diagnosis depending on their combination. Thus, it is much needed to have a diagnostic support system that uses personal health history and physical constitution along with basic medical data and clinical trial data in the field. In this paper, we implemented an Oriental medicine diagnostic support system that provides individualized diagnosis service to each patient by building an ontology on Oriental medicine focused on individual physical constitution and disease information.

Recently XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is becoming the standard for exchanging the documents on the web. And as the amount of information is increasing because of the development of the technique in the Internet, semantic web is becoming to appear for more exact result of information retrieval than the existing one on the web. Ontology which is the basis of the semantic web provides the basic knowledge system to express a particular knowledge. So it can show the exact result of the information retrieval. Ontology defines the particular concepts and the relationships between the concepts about specific domain and it has the hierarchy similar to the taxonomy. In this paper, we propose the generation of semi-automatic ontology based on XML documents that are interesting to many researchers as the means of knowledge expression. To construct the ontology in a particular domain, we suggest the algorithm to determine the domain. So we determined that the domain of ontology is to extract the information of movie on the web. And we used the generalized association rules, one of data mining methods, to generate the ontology, using the tag and contents of XML documents. And XTM (XML Topic Maps), ISO Standard, is used to construct the ontology as an ontology language. The advantage of this method is that because we construct the ontology based on the terms frequently used documents related in the domain, it is useful to query and retrieve the related domain.

The virtual world is simulated in terms of agents and the environment as the real world. Agents are able to perceive and recognize objects as well as components of the environmental elements in the virtual world. As a result, they are able to autonomously act in terms of their decision. They generate diverse situation that make the user to feel familiarity as they would be have like human beings. Such situations are constructed in terms of the concepts of the entities, relations and activities, and agents accordingly recognize the situations in terms of these concepts. In this paper, we propose the method to recognize and represent the shapes which are the most important feature among objects. Various shapes are represented in terms of primitive shapes and their spatial relations in depth. We use distance, direction, and orientation in order to represent basic spatial relation. In order to simplify basic signal processing, objects dynamically send messages of self information to agents, and refer to ontology as the knowledge base of the virtual world. Agents perceive the information from objects by comparing with schematic knowledge and instance knowledge in ontology.

As the requirement of Semantic Web and knowledge management has been rising, ontology developments have been carried out actively. Ontology is now at the point that systematic developing standardization should be made up like the developing a large scale software. Yet, It has not been made to optimize and standardize ontology development methodologies. In this study, to compare ontology development methodologies, METHONTOLOGY, CommonKADS, OTK in foreign countries and EOE in Korea are selected. The evaluating method is to introduce CMM-I version 1.1 framework. Ontology development methodologies have been evaluated in process areas that introduce for CMM-I maturity level 2 and 3. The purpose of this study is to find matured process and weak process in ontology development methodology on the view of process maturity, and suggests the areas to be Improved in it. The result of this study can be applied as basic data to establish and improve ontology development methodology.
