A Brief State of the Art for Ontology Authoring
This work provides a snapshot and review of existing CNLs, which is incremental as it summarizes and evaluates current approaches without introducing new methods.
The paper reviews the state-of-the-art in Controlled Natural Languages (CNLs) for ontology authoring, addressing the challenge of building the Semantic Web by enabling non-experts to create ontologies through user-friendly methods.
One of the main challenges for building the Semantic web is Ontology Authoring. Controlled Natural Languages CNLs offer a user friendly means for non-experts to author ontologies. This paper provides a snapshot of the state-of-the-art for the core CNLs for ontology authoring and reviews their respective evaluations.
