A framework for Islamic knowledge via ontology representation

Ontology is one of the essential topics in the scope of an important area of current computer science and Semantic Web. Ontologies present well defined, straightforward and standardized form of the repositories (vast and reliable knowledge) where it can be interoperable and machine understandable. There are many possible utilization of ontologies from automatic annotation of web resources to domain representation and reasoning task. Ontology is an effective conceptualism used for the semantic web. However there is none of the research try to construct an ontology from Islamic knowledge which consist of Holy Quran, Hadiths and etc. Therefore as a first stage, we try to identify the framework of Islamic Knowledge in order to develop an ontology, and method for extracting an Islamic concept.

Finally, we discuss about the experiment that have been conducted.

Rules and Natural Language Pattern in Extracting Quranic Knowledge

The extraction of Quranic knowledge is a challenging task since the Quran is different from human literature. The unique arrangement of its texts has made the task of directly accessing its meaning, which is rich in its linguistics and multi-layered meanings, difficult if done without the use of other resources such as the Hadith. Hence, this paper describes the extraction of the first layer and the use of natural language pattern in extracting the knowledge of Quranic English translation texts using natural language processing techniques. Evaluation is performed using the true positive, false positive and false negative metrics and encouraging results have been obtained.
