    • References
    • Domain
    • Application
  • Developing an Ontology
    • Engineering Practices
    • Manual vs. Machine Aided
    • Problems using Natural Language terms/phrases as symbols
    • Definitions – How they should be created
  • Analyses
    • Linguistic
    • Ontological
  • Architecture
    • Ontological
    • Information Systems/Infrastructure

Discussion

[12:12] Alex Shkotin: important topic: Finite Structure with numbers and strings to "What is being developed?" of Ontology Development theme. To support let me mention that nowadays The Graph mostly directed one is very popular. Usually such a graph has vertices and edges attributed by identifiers, numbers and strings.

[12:13] Alex Shkotin: I got it

[12:22] Alex Shkotin: if GB-C has bad bandwidth we should all switch off video

[12:43] Alex Shkotin: KG developers think that ontology is a part of KG ~ schema.

[13:09] Dr Ravi Sharma: it was interesting discussion captured as recording on zoom session on today's conference page.

[13:09] Dr Ravi Sharma: Thanks to all participants,
