On the Process of Building a Process Systems Engineering Ontology Using a Semi-Automatic Construction Approach

This work presents a novel systematic approach for the construction of domain ontologies. The suggested approach uses a semi-automatic construction methodology. For this study, parent-child concept pairs are taken from a previous work. Novel contributions include building and completing branches, introducing new relations, and resolving inconsistencies and contradictions. For the process systems engineering (PSE) domain the ISA88 Standard is chosen as a promising starting point for automatic text processing. Finally, this work concludes with a discussion of the ISA88 Standard based on the conclusions that can be obtained from the application of this semi-automatic construction methodology.

Not all the questions are (equally) difficult: An hybrid approach to CQA in Arabic

In the past we faced the problem of Community Question Answering using an unified approach. Some of the questions, however, are easier to be approached by a conventional rule-based system. In this paper we explore this direction.
