  Journal of animal science. 86(6):1485-91.

Bio-ontologies, in particular, play a central role in the annotation, integration, analysis, and interpretation of biological data. Missing from the number of bio-ontologies is one that includes phenotypic trait information found in livestock species. As a result, the Animal Trait Ontology (ATO) project being carried out under the auspices of the USDA-National Animal Genome Research Program is aimed at the development of a standardized trait ontology for farm animals and software tools to assist the research community in collaborative creation, editing, maintenance, and use of such an ontology. The ATO is currently inclusive of cattle, pig, and chicken species, and will include other livestock species in the future. The ATO will eventually be linked to other species (e.g., human, rat, mouse) so that comparative analysis can be efficiently performed between species.

• On the Decidability of Role Mappings Between Modular Ontologies

  Authors: Jie Bao, George Voutsadakis, Giora Slutzki, Vasant Honavar

  Many semantic web applications require support for mappings between roles (or properties) defined in multiple independently developed ontology modules. Distributed Description Logics (DDL),Many semantic web applications require support for mappings between roles (or properties) defined in multiple independently developed ontology modules. Distributed Description Logics (DDL), and Package-based Description Logics (P-DL), offer alternative logical formalisms that support such mappings using bridge rules between roles and importing of roles respectively. We prove that (a) variants of DDL that allow negated roles or cardinality restrictions in bridge rules or inverse bridge rules that connect ALC ontologies are undecidable; (b) A variant of P-DL ALCHIO(~)P that support role mappings between ontology modules in ALCHIO(~) (an extension of ALC that allows general role inclusions, inverse roles, nominals and negated roles) is decidable.

We show several such modeling scenarios including relational modeling, object-oriented modeling, and rules. It is proposed that semantic wiki can be used as a platform for fast semantic web application development. As proof-of-concept applications, we show several use cases, including literature management and semantic blog, developed on the top of semantic wiki.

In such cases, an agent might want to hide a part of its ontology while sharing the rest. However, prohibiting any use of the hidden part of the ontology in answering queries from other agents may be overly restrictive. We provide a framework for privacy- preserving reasoning in which an agent can safely answer queries against its knowledge base using inferences based on both the hidden and visible part of the knowledge base, without revealing the hidden knowledge. We show an application of this framework in the widely used special case of hierarchical ontologies.
