Abstract

Ontology has been regarded as the core technology of the semantic web. However, non-experts still have difficulties in participating in ontology generation. So, the growing need for public participation in ontology generation has arisen. We propose a method in which the public may participate in ontology generation by adopting the ACO (Ant Colony Optimization) algorithm. We demonstrate that the ontology generated by the proposed method is satisfactory to justify our method: precision and recall of the ontology are about 94.44 and 99.6 % respectively. The suggested method enables the construction of the semantic web environment with non-experts in the field of ontology engineering.
