Title
BOWiki: Ontology-based Semantic Wiki with ABox Reasoning
Abstract
Claim. This paper presents the semantic wiki BOWiki, that uses a ontology to verify the content of semantical dat added by the user. The BOWiki is a semantic Wiki, designed to eliminate the need for costly and time consuming manual expert database curation, while providing users with an automated reasoning system to verify the consistency of newly added content to the knowledgebase (KB). A semantic wiki built on an ontological foundation can provide users with information about particular types of entities and how they relate to one another. Automated reasoners can be adapted for use within an ontologically based semantic wiki, in order to verify whether newly submitted information is consistent with existing KB content, prior to incorporating the new information into the KB (5). The reasoner is also useful for querying the data. The BOWiki combines an ontologically based semantic wiki with an automated Pellet reasoner to deliver users a collaboratively curated and consistent KB. Although originally targeted to serve the biological community, the BOWiki can be used in any domain.
