Item A GENERIC ONTOLOGY CREATION TOOL: A CASE STUDY ON(2022-02-28) Yılmaz, Ekrem Çağlar; Turhan, Çiğdem; Güray, CenkTo retrieve any information from the Web, a search has to be performed on billions of documents which are unorganized, unstructured and unreadable by machines. To overcome this problem, the data on the Web has to be formalized in a machine readable format. One of the solutions is to use the Semantic Web technology which provides structure and meaning to data on the Web. In order to provide machine readable and semantically identified information, the Semantic Web technology utilizes ontologies which include resources, properties and their relations to identify metadata about data. The current ontology editors require expertise to create, organize, edit and manage ontologies. In this study, a generic ontology creation tool is developed for users with no expertise in ontology creation. The tool which can be easily and effectively used at every level of a business gathers information about the ontology from a non-expert providing step by step guidance with user interfaces.The aim is to enable any employee of a firm to create an ontology in their domain to be able to share information in machine-readable form with the rest of his/her company or other companies. The tool is tested on users who have different working experiences in terms of years and sectors of business. The results are evaluated with statistical methods which show that on the average, the users are satisfied with the tool and are able to create ontologies in their own domains.Item A GENERIC ONTOLOGY CREATION TOOL: A CASE STUDY ON BUSINESS SECTORS(2022-03-01) Yılmaz, Ekrem Çağlar; Turhan, Çiğdem; Güray, CenkTo retrieve any information from the Web, a search has to be performed on billions of documents which are unorganized, unstructured and unreadable by machines.
