Modeling and use of an ontology network for website recommendation systems

Abstract

The modeling of website recommendation systems involves the combination of many features: website domain, metrics of quality, quality criteria, recommendation criteria, user profile, and specific domain features. When specifying these systems, it must be ensured the proper interrelationship of all these features. In order to ensure the proper relationships of all these features, we propose an ontology network, the Salus ontology. This work presents the structure of each of the networked ontologies and the semantic relationships that exist among them. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
