Combining Semantic Wikis and Controlled Natural Language
Tobias Kuhn
TL;DR
AceWiki leverages controlled natural language to facilitate user-friendly creation and editing of ontologies, translating ACE texts into formal logic and enabling non-experts to effectively contribute.
Contribution
This paper introduces AceWiki, a semantic wiki that uses Attempto Controlled English to simplify ontology management for non-experts, with automatic translation into formal logic.
Findings
Ordinary users can effectively use AceWiki without prior training
ACE texts are automatically translatable into first-order logic and OWL
AceWiki enables easy web-based ontology editing
Abstract
We demonstrate AceWiki that is a semantic wiki using the controlled natural language Attempto Controlled English (ACE). The goal is to enable easy creation and modification of ontologies through the web. Texts in ACE can automatically be translated into first-order logic and other languages, for example OWL. Previous evaluation showed that ordinary people are able to use AceWiki without being instructed.
