New OAEI Track for Defence and National Security Ontology Alignment
A new track has been launched for the Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative (OAEI), concentrating on the realm of defence and national security. This track includes eight matching tasks, consensus alignments, and carefully curated silver-standard mappings. The consensus alignments result from combining outputs from various advanced ontology alignment systems, while the silver-standard is created through the manual verification of the consensus alignment along with a selection of unique mappings. The initiative catalogs over 60 ontologies that are publicly accessible in this area, tackling interoperability challenges due to the domain's complexity and specialization. This effort is detailed in an arXiv paper (arXiv:2608.05867) that examines these ontologies, with the goal of enhancing interoperability among different defence and national security ontologies.
