Ontology modeling with domain experts
Pascal Hitzler
Wright State University
Abstract. In this talk we will discuss lessons learned from several years’
experience in modeling ontologies with domain experts. In particular, we
will emphasize on quality aspects which make it easier to reuse ontologies
and linked data published based on ontologies. We argue that modular-
ization based on ontology design patterns improves quality control and at
the same time simplifies information exchange between domain experts
and ontology engineers.
Speaker Bio. Pascal Hitzler is a (full) Professor and Director of Data Sci-
ence at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Wright State
University in Dayton, Ohio, U.S.A. From 2004 to 2009, he was Akademischer
Rat at the Institute for Applied Informatics and Formal Description Methods
(AIFB) at the University of Karlsruhe in Germany, and from 2001 to 2004 he
was postdoctoral researcher at the Artificial Intelligence institute at TU Dres-
den in Germany. In 2001 he obtained a PhD in Mathematics from the National
University of Ireland, University College Cork, and in 1998 a Diplom (Master
equivalent) in Mathematics from the University of Tbingen in Germany. His re-
search record lists over 300 publications in such diverse areas as semantic web,
neural-symbolic integration, knowledge representation and reasoning, machine
learning, denotational semantics, and set-theoretic topology. He is Editor-in-
chief of the Semantic Web journal by IOS Press, and of the IOS Press book
series Studies on the Semantic Web. He is co-author of the W3C Recommenda-
tion OWL 2 Primer, and of the book Foundations of Semantic Web Technologies
by CRC Press, 2010 which was named as one out of seven Outstanding Academic
Titles 2010 in Information and Computer Science by the American Library As-
sociation’s Choice Magazine, and has translations into German and Chinese. He
is on the editorial board of several journals and book series and on the steering
committee of the RR conference series and the NeSy workshop series, and he
frequently acts as conference chair in various functions, including e.g. General
Chair (RR2012), Program Chair (AIMSA2014, ODBASE2011, RR2010), Track
Chair (AAAI-15, ESWC2015, ESWC2013, ESWC2011, ISWC2010), Workshop
Chair (K-Cap2013), Sponsor Chair (ISWC2013, RR2009, ESWC2009). For more
