This work describes a visual system for managing ontologies in the RDF formalism, providing a number of features for creating, updating and deleting elements and instances via a user-friendly graphical interface, along with a set of advanced operators that can be applied upon them. These operators implement mechanisms for ontology instance matching and integration, ontology enrichment with semantically-related concepts, as well as question answering in natural language, with the purpose of discovering knowledge from the underlying ontologies. SEMANTO may display and manage RDF ontologies via SPARQL endpoints, including user-defined ontologies and subsets of Linked Open Data. SEMANTO has been experimented upon against ontological schema and instances derived from a knowledge model for learning management systems and from a learning application for online dispute resolution.

Abstract
This work describes a visual system for managing ontologies in the RDF formalism, providing a number of features for creating, updating and deleting elements and instances via a user-friendly graphical interface, along with a set of advanced operators that can be applied upon them. These operators implement mechanisms for ontology instance matching and integration, ontology enrichment with semantically-related concepts, as well as question answering in natural language, with the purpose of discovering knowledge from the underlying ontologies. SEMANTO may display and manage RDF ontologies via SPARQL endpoints, including user-defined ontologies and subsets of Linked Open Data. SEMANTO has been experimented upon against ontological schema and instances derived from a knowledge model for learning management systems and from a learning application for online dispute resolution.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
