Abstract: Goals & Objectives
OntologySummit2014 Theme: "Big Data and Semantic Web Meet Applied Ontology"
This is our 9th Ontology Summit, a joint initiative by NIST, Ontolog, NCOR, NCBO, IAOA & NCO_NITRD with the support of our co-sponsors.
Since the beginnings of the Semantic Web, ontologies have played key roles in the design and deployment of new semantic technologies. Yet over the years, the level of collaboration between the Semantic Web and Applied Ontology communities has been much less than expected. Within Big Data applications, ontologies appear to have had little impact.
This year's Ontology Summit is an opportunity for building bridges between the Semantic Web, Linked Data, Big Data, and Applied Ontology communities. On the one hand, the Semantic Web, Linked Data, and Big Data communities can bring a wide array of real problems (such as performance and scalability challenges and the variety problem in Big Data) and technologies (automated reasoning tools) that can make use of ontologies. On the other hand, the Applied Ontology community can bring a large body of common reusable content (ontologies) and ontological analysis techniques. Identifying and overcoming ontology engineering bottlenecks is critical for all communities.
Ontology Summit 2014 will pose and address the primary challenges in these areas of interaction among the different communities. The Summit activities will bring together insights and methods from these different communities, synthesize new insights, and disseminate knowledge across field boundaries.
Following earlier Ontology Summit practice, the synthesized results of this season's discourse will be published as a Communique.

[10:36] GaryBergCross: Note, for the 2nd session of track A Content Reuse, John Sowa has agreed to be a speaker.
[10:36] Mike Bennett: @Gary great!
[10:37] GaryBergCross: On the site the Track A references have links to pages and documents.
[10:36] anonymous morphed into Lamar Henderson
[10:36] Dan Brickley: does anyone have VNC working on OSX?
[10:47] Peter P. Yim: @DanBrickley ... yes, I have vnc working on my Macbook Air ... I have been
successfully using "Chicken of the VNC (cotvnc)" as my vnc client there (
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cotvnc/ ) - see also:
http://community.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?CweAdmin/CollaborationToolSupport#nidAR3
[10:48] Peter P. Yim: @DanBrickley ... your problem (with vnc) may be in your corporate firewall and not the viewer, though
[10:49] Dan Brickley: I'm on home ISP. Can discuss later :)
[10:48] Dan Brickley: thanks PeterYim. For today I'll present slides without seeing what you see.
[10:49] Peter P. Yim: that's perfectly fine ... vnc shared-screen is strictly optional (helps make sure
you prompt slide advances, though)
[10:41] FabianNeuhaus-1 morphed into Fabian Neuhaus
[10:42] anonymous1 morphed into Siew Lam
[10:42] Tim Finin: Here's a question I think we must address: Many big data applications require or
invite statistical and probabilistic models and reasoning. How can/will be address this?
[10:50] Amanda Vizedom: @Tim, I agree; many are pursuing statistical *or* ontological reasoning
approaches, but few are pursuing the hybrid approaches that seem to have so much potential. The
PR-OWL group at GMU have been developing Bayesian + Ontological approaches for years, but I don't
know to what extent they have worked with Big Data problems.
[10:54] Peter P. Yim: @TimFinin ... I trust Ken Baclawski, (one of) our Track D co-champion(s), should
have a lot (knowledge and connections) to bring to the table in those aspects
[11:28] Ken Baclawski: @TimFinin: Regarding your earlier questions, these issues would fit in Track D.
I have examined these issues in the past, and it would be good to try dealing with them in the context of Big Data.
[10:48] Tim Finin: Another problem that axioms can introduce is producing inconsistencies ...
[10:49] Dan Brickley: (re global constraints, - yes that's why schema.org property/type associations
don't use rdfs:domain + rdfs:range)
[10:49] QuentinReul: and use of axioms makes the separation of concerns (modelling vs.
implmentation) and re-use difficult
[10:50] Mike Bennett: @Quentin good point, perhaps we can draw this point out in the Track A
conversations?
[10:52] QuentinReul: @Mike I think that it is an inevitable topic for improving re-use
[10:53] QuentinReul: DL is one potential issue, but deep biding to philosophical entities (e.g. DOLCE) is another one
[10:55] Mike Bennett: @Quentin quite so. What is most appropriate for an ontology for a given
application may work for or against its re-use by someone in another application. Likewise the
philosophical commitments need to be consistent, or frameable within some broader, consistent set of
partitions / theories.
[10:55] Anatoly Levenchuk: @Tim, Amanda: it can be good to know about "hybrid" methods. E.g. usual
statistical data is in arrays/tables. How we can help with triples and ontologies?! Or we have deep
learning that not look like too far from ontology (features) discovery but not look too close the same time.
[10:57] QuentinReul: @Mike Have you heard about "Just Enough" Ontology Engineering (
http://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1108/1108.1488.pdf ). Although an interesting paper, it lacks
guidelines on tools / mechanisms to dissiminate the model and thus increase re-use
[10:59] Mike Bennett: @Quentin I have not. We should look into this as part of our deliberations.
[10:59] Mike Bennett: Apologies, have to drop off now.
[11:00] QuentinReul: I also have to drop off
[11:01] Ed Bernot: Sorry, I too have to drop off. Great session, thanks!
[11:00] anonymous morphed into Sub
[11:05] Dan Brickley: [referring to Dan's own Track E presentation] shortest talk yet?
[11:05] Dan Brickley: I was tempted to give a Google perspective, but will do that later, with
datasets / APIs and other materials.
[11:05] Amanda Vizedom: @Dan, you must have lightening talk experience. :-)
[11:08] Dan Brickley: We used to do a lot of lightning talk sessions at W3C in the RDF Interest Group, yes :)
[11:10] Amanda Vizedom: [amused by my own typo. perhaps "lightening" is some mix of "lightning" and "enlightening." ;-)]
[11:07] Marcia Zeng: @DanBrickley: What will be Schema.org's role in relation to this Summit's theme?
[11:10] Dan Brickley: Re schema.org, I'll put together some materials. It is a little difficult for
teams who don't have a complete Web crawl since the data is scattered over 5+ million sites, but
there are some possibilities. It might be particularly interesting for the 'variety' problem.
[11:11] Dan Brickley: Do you think this could be useful? here is a Google custom search -
https://www.google.com/cse/publicurl?cx=003736913799082383568:8pkugzvixsw - over (200 or so) sites
that use the type http://schema.org/Museum
[11:11] Marcia Zeng: @Dan, thanks for the answer.
[11:11] Dan Brickley: (Easy to make such engines for any schema.org type)
[11:13] Marcia Zeng: @Dan, I think it is useful. A way to 'filter in' first.
[11:15] Marcia Zeng: @Dan, we found Google Image kind of search very useful for cultural heritage
related sources. That is a kind of typed search.
[11:14] Michael Grüninger: @QuentinReul: I didn't quite get your point -- are you saying that axioms
make reuse difficult?!
[11:14] Eric Stephan: Thank you! Sorry I have to drop off early.
[11:16] Leo Obrst: @All: we are looking for additional co-champions for some of the tracks, including
Track D: Tackling the Variety Problem in Big Data, Team R: Public Relations, and Team M: Program
Management (includes operations, logistics, production). So please consider these if you'd like to
have greater input into this Ontology Summit.
[11:17] Oliver Kutz: trying
[11:20] Marcia Zeng: Have to drop off now. Thanks a lot!
[11:25] Tim Finin: I think an Ontology Summit Facebook group or page would be a good way to get
announcements and reminders to the participants and wider community
[11:28] Simon Spero: @PeterYim: I can help on getting the semantic wiki instance going
[--:--] Peter P. Yim: (responded later on email) great, Simon! come to our organizing committee meeting
tomorrow, so we can talk more about it
[11:28] Amanda Vizedom: Tweeting has begun using #ontologysummit2014
[11:29] Ram D. Sriram: I need to leave right now. Tim Finin will be giving the Symposium Co-chair
remarks.
[11:30] Amanda Vizedom: I have also started using the #ontologysummit2014 hashtag on Google+, though
I may be the only one so far.
[11:31] Christine Kapp: Thank you Peter I have emailed you a question about Program Management and
administrivia - I need to drop now thank you very much
[--:--] Peter P. Yim: (responded later on email) great, Christi! come to our organizing committee
meeting tomorrow, so we can talk more about it
[11:33] Tim Finin: The #ontologysummit2014 tag uses up 1/2 a tweet! How about something shorter, e.g. #ontosum
[11:35] Amanda Vizedom: @Tim, indeed, I have been saying so for a couple of years, to no consensus.
Perhaps we can make that suggestion and try to get sufficient agreement via the mailing list.
[11:39] Frank Loebe: @Amanda: You may consider a vote on the hashtag within this chatroom, for
immediate feedback from the current audience. But perhaps this does not include everyone intended.
[11:40] Amanda Vizedom: @Frank, not a bad idea. I'd say that would be in the domain of the PR team. Peter?
[11:39] Les Morgan: Does the project have a Google+ presence? Many tech folk would follow it there.
[11:40] Les Morgan: I already circulated an item about the Summit there and got a few nibbles.

- Discussions and Q & A:
- Nominally, when a presentation is in progress, the moderator will mute everyone, except for the speaker.
- To un-mute, press "*7" ... To mute, press "*6" (please mute your phone, especially if you are in a noisy surrounding, or if you are introducing noise, echoes, etc. into the conference line.)
- we will usually save all questions and discussions till after all presentations are through. You are encouraged to jot down questions onto the chat-area in the mean time (that way, they get documented; and you might even get some answers in the interim, through the chat.)
- During the Q&A / discussion segment (when everyone is muted), If you want to speak or have questions or remarks to make, please raise your hand (virtually) by clicking on the "hand button" (lower right) on the chat session page. You may speak when acknowledged by the session moderator (again, press "*7" on your phone to un-mute). Test your voice and introduce yourself first before proceeding with your remarks, please. (Please remember to click on the "hand button" again (to lower your hand) and press "*6" on your phone to mute yourself after you are done speaking.)
