Abstract

This article presents the creation of an ontology describing Bulgarian folklore. The ontology has been developed based on the CCO (Cataloging Cultural Objects) standard. CCO leads us to provide data content standards. The set of ontologies is a knowledge base used by intelligent agents. One of the main problems with systems and developments describing different cultural and/or historical sites is the difficulty in sharing information between individual societies or systems. The use of standards greatly facilitates the dissemination of data. The CCO standard provides clear and precise definitions of the individual attributes that an object must possess. The ontologies developed by Protégé are designed in such a way as to meet the requirements of the standard. The created ontologies describe 7 folklore areas with specific ones being: music, dances and musical instruments. The work on creating this ontology directs us to create web applications of the developed ontologies.

Highlights

  • Ontology and Cataloging Cultural Objects(CCO)Semantics in the field of information technology explores the meaning of things

  • It provides a wide range of axioms that can be created and typological groups of Bulgarian folklore be defined with as much detail as possible

  • Seven ontologies were created according to the Cataloging of Cultural Objects (CCO) standard (Baca et al, 2006)

Summary

Introduction

Ontology and Cataloging Cultural Objects(CCO)Semantics in the field of information technology explores the meaning of things. The Web Ontology Language (OWL) ontology is based on Description Logics (DLs) – a class of formal languages used to represent knowledge. The development of semantic models leads to a better expression of the meaning of data in those models, making them simpler to learn and fit them for usage by Case, with more realism and detailed descriptions when digitalizing real world objects.
