Abstract

This paper describes an approach for identifying On tology components by using Self-Organizing Maps (SOM). Our system represents the knowledge con tained in a particular domain, any kind of digital archive, by assembling and displaying its ontology components. This novel approach provides a solu tion to the problem of semi-automatic ontology con struction, supports mechanisms that explore domains, and allows knowledge components to be displayed in a browsable manner. Further processing may be carried out on the extracted knowledge to be embedded on the semantic web for software agents to use.
