Predicting and Scoring Links in Anatomical Ontology Mapping

Abstract

The paper presents a work performed in the area of automatic and semi-automatic ontology mapping. A method for inferring additional cross-ontology links while mapping anatomical ontologies is described and the results of some experiments performed with various external knowledge sources and scoring schemes are discussed as well.
