Researchers working in various domains are focusing on extracting information from data sets by data mining techniques. However, data mining is a complicated task, including multiple complex processes, so that it is unfriendly to non-computer researchers. Due to the lack of experience, they cannot design suitable workflows that lead to satisfactory results. This article proposes an ontology-based approach to help users choose appropriate data mining techniques for analyzing domain data. By merging with domain ontology and extracting the corresponding sub-ontology based on the task requirements, an ontology oriented to a specific domain is generated that can be used for algorithm selection. Users can query for suitable algorithms according to the current data characteristics and task requirements step by step. We build a workflow to analyze the Acid-Base State of patients at operative measures based on the proposed approach and obtain appropriate conclusions.
