LPG Semantic Ontologies: A Tool for Interoperable Schema Creation and Management

Abstract

Ontologies are essential for the management and integration of heterogeneous datasets. This paper presents OntoBuilder, an advanced tool that leverages the structural capabilities of semantic labeled property graphs (SLPGs) in strict alignment with semantic web standards to create a sophisticated framework for data management. We detail OntoBuilder’s architecture, core functionalities, and application scenarios, demonstrating its proficiency and adaptability in addressing complex ontological challenges. Our empirical assessment highlights OntoBuilder’s strengths in enabling seamless visualization, automated ontology generation, and robust semantic integration, thereby significantly enhancing user workflows and data management capabilities. The performance of the linked data tools across multiple metrics further underscores the effectiveness of OntoBuilder.
