In the paper we discuss the idea of ontology reuse as a way of fast prototyping of new concepts. In particular, we propose that instead of building a complete ontology describing certain concepts from the very beginning, it is possible and advisable to reuse existing resources. We claim that the available online resources such as Wikidata or wordnets can be used to provide some hints or even complete parts of ontologies aiding new concepts definition. As a proof of concept, we present the implementation of an extension to the Ontolis ontology editor. With this extension we are able to reuse the ontologies provided by Wikidata to define the concepts that have not been previously defined. As a preliminary evaluation of the extension, we compare the amount of work required to define selected concepts with and without the proposed ontology reuse method. |
