Ontologies in Amine Platform: Structures and Processes
[chapter]
2006
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
A resolution of this conflict is proposed, where Ontology is considered as a special case of CK (i.e. a formal CK). ...
By this "rehabilitation" of Ontology to "CK Base", we extend "by the way" the meaning and scope of Ontology to include "CK-based Ontology". ...
They have developed also "Domain-specific Ontologies" like "Ontology for Physics", "Ontology for Biology", "Ontology for Medicine", "Ontology for Math", etc. as well as "Ultra-domain-specific Ontologies ...

Ontological realism and classification: Structures and concepts in the Gene Ontology
2014
Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology
The Gene Ontology (hereafter GO) is such a formal vocabulary, which is used for the indexing of gene products from any species. ...
It has been widely used in molecular biology research for more than a decade; the PubMed database had more than 5,000 references to the GO, and its applications, at the beginning of 2013, and the initial ...
The OBO Foundry and its members adhere to a set of principles for ontology development (OBO Foundry 2011), grounded in the framework of Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) which offers an extended philosophical ...

Pragmatic phenomenological types
2015
Progress in Biophysics and Molecular Biology
The intent is to further practical tools that can be used in the clinical context. An example proposes a formal type system that would support this kind of reasoning, including in machines. ...
We approach a well-known problem: how to relate component physical processes in biological systems to governing imperatives in multiple system levels. ...
Acknowledgements This paper has been greatly improved by suggestions from anonymous reviewers plus input from the editors and other associates. ...

Evolution of a Foundational Model of Physiology: symbolic representation for functional bioinformatics
2004
Studies in Health Technology and Informatics
We describe the need for a Foundational Model of Physiology (FMP) as a reference ontology for "functional bioinformatics". ...
The FMP will serve as a symbolic representation of biological functions initially pertaining to human physiology and ultimately extensible to other species. ...

Finding Our Way through Phenotypes
2015
PLoS Biology
Despite a large and multifaceted effort to understand the vast landscape of phenotypic data, their current form inhibits productive data analysis. ...
The lack of a community-wide, consensusbased, human-and machine-interpretable language for describing phenotypes and their genomic and environmental contexts is perhaps the most pressing scientific bottleneck ...
For epidemiological studies, environment may refer to features in the physical proximity, such as to a nuclear plant, or relate to prior personal behavior, such as a history of smoking. ...

Geographical categories: an ontological investigation
2001
International Journal of Geographical Information Science
The data suggest, rather, a special role in determining the subject-matter of scienti c geography for the concept of what can be portrayed on a map. ...
The results yield an ontology of geographical categories-a catalogue of the prime geospatial concepts and categories shared in common by human subjects independently of their exposure to scienti c geography ...
We also wish to thank the student subjects and their instructors for participating in the study. ...

Systemic Semantics: A Systems Approach to Building Ontologies and Concept Maps
2018
Systems
To this end, this paper lays the groundwork for a community effort to develop an 'Ontology of Systemology'. ...
The outcome of this paper is therefore twofold: We show the value in applying a systems perspective to ontology development in any discipline, and we provide a starting outline for an Ontology of Systemology ...
Acknowledgments: We would like to thank the two anonymous reviewers of this paper for their helpful comments, which have greatly aided us in improving the structure and clarity of this paper. ...

Language and Idealism
2021
Academicus : International Scientific Journal
Within this field, the techniques of contemporary formal logic are exalted because they allow us to build artificial languages which - at least theoretically - eliminate the ambiguities of everyday speech ...
In the philosophical inquiry adopted by logical empiricists, analysis of scientific language becomes something similar to a metaphysical endeavor which is meant to establish the bounds of sense, and this ...
Our standard for appraising basic changes of conceptual scheme must be, not a realistic standard of correspondence to reality, but a pragmatic standard (on this theme see Duhem). ...
