Ontoloogiapõhiseid

Ontoloogiapõhiseid is an Estonian term that translates to "ontology-based" in English. It refers to approaches, systems, or methodologies that are founded upon or utilize ontologies. An ontology, in the context of information science and artificial intelligence, is a formal, explicit specification of a shared conceptualization. It defines a set of concepts within a domain and the relationships between those concepts.

Ontology-based systems aim to represent knowledge in a structured and machine-readable format. This allows for more sophisticated data processing, reasoning, and knowledge sharing. For example, in ontology-based data access, a system uses an ontology to understand the structure and semantics of disparate data sources, enabling users to query them in a unified way without needing to understand the underlying technical details of each source.

The applications of ontology-based approaches are wide-ranging. They are found in areas such as semantic web technologies, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, bioinformatics, and information retrieval. By providing a common understanding of a domain, ontologies help to improve interoperability between different systems and facilitate the creation of more intelligent applications. The development and use of ontology-based solutions emphasize the importance of clear definitions and structured knowledge representation for achieving specific computational goals.
