Abstract: This article presents an industry-ready ontology for the machine learning domain, which is named “ML Ontology”. While based on lightweight modelling languages, ML ontology provides novel features including built-in queries and quality assurance, as well as sophisticated reasoning. With ca. 700 individuals that define key ML concepts and ca. 5000 RDF triples, ML Ontology ranks among the largest domain-specific ontologies for ML. An experiment to estimate the correctness and completeness of ML terminology included in ML Ontology indicates an F1-score of 0.83. A benchmark evaluating query performance reveals query response times far below 100 ms even for complex queries and memory consumption below 3.5 MB. Its industry-readiness is demonstrated by benchmarks as well as two use case implementations within a data science platform. ML Ontology is open source and published under an MIT license.
