Guidedi Kaladzavi, Papa Fary Diallo, Kolyang, Moussa Lo

TL;DR
This paper introduces OntoSOC, a sociocultural knowledge ontology based on Human Activity Theory, designed to organize social data and facilitate community knowledge sharing through a semantic social web platform.
Contribution
It presents a novel ontology modeling approach grounded in HAT for organizing sociocultural data in a participative social web system.
Findings
Ontology enables organized sociocultural data management
Facilitates information retrieval via semantic layer
Supports community knowledge sharing and co-construction
Abstract
This paper presents a sociocultural knowledge ontology (OntoSOC) modeling approach. OntoSOC modeling approach is based on Engestrom Human Activity Theory (HAT). That Theory allowed us to identify fundamental concepts and relationships between them. The top-down precess has been used to define differents sub-concepts. The modeled vocabulary permits us to organise data, to facilitate information retrieval by introducing a semantic layer in social web platform architecture, we project to implement. This platform can be considered as a collective memory and Participative and Distributed Information System (PDIS) which will allow Cameroonian communities to share an co-construct knowledge on permanent organized activities.
