Open mic - Vojtěch Svátek: OntoDESIDE and PatOMat2 - Using Ontologies to Support Circular Economy

Open mic took place on Friday 8th November 2024 hosted by Vojtěch Svátek from the University of Economics in Prague. The topic of the speech is using of ontologies to support circular economy, using tools OntoDESIDE and PatOMat2.

The goal of the Onto-DESIDE is addressing challenges that prevent sharing of data and making it usable by both humans and machines. In particular, the focus is on helping the industry share knowledge in order to transition to a more circular model of economy. Prof. Svátek and his colleagues contribute, among other things, by helping to create a semi-automated way of mapping the vocabularies of various industry domains using transformation patterns.

To facilitate this goal, PatOMat2 - a pattern-based ontology transformation tool - has been developed. Prof. Svátek will discuss the motivation and principles of using patterns in ontology mapping and transformation. At the end of the session, a short demo of PatOMat2 will be presented.
