The influence of similarity between concepts in evolving biomedical ontologies for mapping adaptation.
Year: 2014
Type: article
Abstract: Biomedical ontologies continuously evolve which demands maintain associated mappings up-to-date. This article studies whether similarity calculated between values of concept attributes issued from successive ontology versions plays a role in deciding mapping adaptation actions. We empirically analyse the evolution of official mappings established between large biomedical ontologies. The results point out the relevance of this factor for mapping adaptation.
