Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative - OAEI-2024 CampaignOAEI

Conference track

Conference track contains 16 ontologies from the same domain (conference organization). These ontologies are suitable for ontology matching task because of their heterogenous character of origin. This year we will get the support from the MELT framework (see MELT evaluation for OAEI 2024). For list of planned evaluation methods see section below. Seven ontologies are involved in the reference alignment: Cmt, ConfTool, Edas, Ekaw, Iasted, Sigkdd, Sofsem.

Results

Results will be available according to the schedule.

Data set

Data set is available from this web-page (see below). You can either download them and try them on your own, but, finally, you have to create a package or a Web service of your tool based on MELT (see MELT evaluation for OAEI 2024). For running the Conference testsuite you will have to specify the following input parameters:

Conference Testsuite

Additionally, we have three experimental test cases with regard to matching the cross-domain DBpedia ontology to three OntoFarm ontologies. We merely focus on entities of DBpedia ontology (dbo) from DBpedia namespace (therefore we prepared filtered DBpedia ontology), i.e. http://dbpedia.org/ontology/ and three selected ontologies from OntoFarm: confof, ekaw, sigkdd.

The collection of ontologies is dealing with conference organization. They have been developed within OntoFarm project. 16 ontologies are included; the last one (linklings.owl) is in the OWL 2 profile. Each of them is shortly described in the following table. Ontologies have been based upon three types of underlying resources:

Name is derived from name of conference or conference organisation tool. For downloading this ontology, just click on its name or you can download all ontologies at once.
DL expressivity was obtained by Pellet reasoner.

These ontologies are in English. Based on this collection multilingual collection MultiFarm have been made and included into the OAEI campaign as MultiFarm track. Further, three ontologies (Cmt, Ekaw and Sofsem) from this track has been added into the complex matching track.

Modalities

Participants will use MELT framework to deliver their results (see MELT evaluation for OAEI 2024). Alignments will be evaluated based on

The confidence values for all matches in the crisp reference alignment are 1.0, while the uncertain version of the reference alignment has confidence values that reflect the degree of agreement of a group of twenty people on the validity of the match. Crisp reference alignment contains 21 alignments (test cases), which corresponds to the complete alignment space between 7 ontologies (Cmt, ConfTool, Edas, Ekaw, Iasted, Sigkdd, Sofsem) from the data set. This is a subset of all ontologies within this track (16). Total number of possible test cases is hence 120. There are three variants of reference alignment:

Furthermore, participants can directly submit their 'interesting individual correspondences' ('nuggets') which could represent complex correspondences to organizers of this conference track, for contacts please see below. These correspondences will be evaluated manually. There is also a track targetting complex correspondences see Complex.

Schedule

The schedule is available at the OAEI main page.
