WiseOWL: A Methodology for Evaluating Ontological Descriptiveness and Semantic Correctness for Ontology Reuse and Ontology Recommendations

ArXi:2604.12025v1 Announce Type: new The Semantic Web standardizes concept meaning for humans and machines, enabling machine-operable content and consistent interpretation that improves advanced analytics. Reusing ontologies speeds development and enforces consistency, yet selecting the optimal choice is challenging because authors lack systematic selection criteria and often rely on intuition that is difficult to justify, limiting reuse. To solve this, WiseOWL is proposed, a methodology with scoring and guidance to select ontologies for reuse.
