The ambiguities of it, and the different concepts the agents possess, give rise to imperfect understanding among them: How closely concepts in ontology OA map1 to which of KEY WORDS: Ontology matching, natural language, concept similarity, degree of understanding, imperfect knowledge. ♦ Each concept and relation has as name (or has associated) words from a natural language, since the ontology tries to represent a part of the other agent's knowledge of such concept, to be called in §3.1 the similarity value (sv). Case a) Agent P (with ontology OP, figure 1) wants to find the most similar concept to cA = onion Examples of confusion and similarity (sim') for two concepts of the same ontology OP, figure 1. Concept similarity measures the understanding between two agents. ./cache/work_i3q4vd2cqfgf5basystouk4g3a.pdf ./txt/work_i3q4vd2cqfgf5basystouk4g3a.txt
