Discoverable Agent Knowledge -- A Formal Framework for Agentic KG Affordances (Extended Version)
Terry R. Payne, Valentina Tamma, Enrico Daga
Two decades ago, the Semantic Web Services community was asked how agents with different ontological commitments could discover, compose, and invoke web services coherently. The re…
Knowledge Graph Re-engineering Along the Ontological Continuum (extended version)
Enrico Daga, Valentina Tamma, Terry Payne
Knowledge graphs have become the primary vehicle for data integration and are critical to the success of modern AI, but the diversity of KG modelling practices, from lightweight vo…
Characterising LLM-Generated Competency Questions: a Cross-Domain Empirical Study using Open and Closed Models
Reham Alharbi, Valentina Tamma, Terry R. Payne +1
Competency Questions (CQs) are a cornerstone of requirement elicitation in ontology engineering. CQs represent requirements as a set of natural language questions that an ontology…
The AnIML Ontology: Enabling Semantic Interoperability for Large-Scale Experimental Data in Interconnected Scientific Labs
Wilf Morlidge, Elliott Watkiss-Leek, George Hannah +7
Achieving semantic interoperability across heterogeneous experimental data systems remains a major barrier to data-driven scientific discovery. The Analytical Information Markup La…
IDEA2: Expert-in-the-loop competency question elicitation for collaborative ontology engineering
Elliott Watkiss-Leek, Reham Alharbi, Harry Rostron +6
Competency question (CQ) elicitation represents a critical but resource-intensive bottleneck in ontology engineering. This foundational phase is often hampered by the communication…
A Comparative Study of Competency Question Elicitation Methods from Ontology Requirements
Reham Alharbi, Valentina Tamma, Terry R. Payne +1
Competency Questions (CQs) are pivotal in knowledge engineering, guiding the design, validation, and testing of ontologies. A number of diverse formulation approaches have been pro…
