Abstract. The benefit of light-weight reasoning in ontology matching has been recognized by a number of researchers resulting in alignment repair systems such as Alcomo and LogMap. While the general benefit of logical reasoning has been shown in principle, there is no systematic empirical evaluation analyzing (i) the impact of completeness of the rea-soning methods and (ii) whether approximate or optimal solutions to the conflict resolution problem have to be preferred. Using standard bench-mark data sets, we show that increasing the expressive power does im-prove the matching results and that optimal resolution methods slightly outperform approximate ones.

Abstract. The role of natural language is becoming in these years a more and more acknowledged aspect of the Semantic Web. Not limited to mere modeling and representation proposals, but backed by concrete use-cases and scenarios, the use of natural language is emerging through a plethora of approaches and solutions. Now that we have languages and protocols for modeling and publishing content, for querying, and for efficiently describing datasets and repositories (metadata), it is time for natural language to regain its due space and become a first-class-citizen in the Web of Data. Lexical resources need to comply with standard, unifying vocabularies upon which they can be discovered, chosen, evaluated and ultimately queried upon need. At the same time, NLP systems and components should pull their head out of their esoteric corner and become classifiable, discoverable and interactive elements in the Semantic Web, so that many language related tasks can be carried on more easily thanks to coordinating modules/agents sensible to this information. In this position paper, I will provide by first a quick outlook into the last years of language and ontologies and describe what the community has achieved by the state-of-the-art. I will then discuss open points, and try to draw conclusions, based on my perspective and contributions to this research field, towards the future of a more Language-Aware Semantic Web. 1

Abstract As a key representation model of knowledge, ontology has been widely used in a lot of NLP related tasks, such as semantic parsing, information extraction and text mining etc. In this paper, we study the task of ontology matching, which concentrates on finding semantically related entities between different ontologies that describe the same domain, to solve the semantic heterogeneity problem. Previous works exploit different kinds of descriptions of an entity in ontology directly and separately to find the correspondences without considering the higher level correlations between the descriptions. Besides, the structural information of ontology haven't been utilized adequately for ontology matching. We propose in this paper an ontology matching approach, named ERSOM, which mainly includes an unsupervised representation learning method based on the deep neural networks to learn the general representation of the entities and an iterative similarity propagation method that takes advantage of more abundant structure information of the ontology to discover more mappings. The experimental results on the datasets from Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative (OAEI 1 ) show that ER-SOM achieves a competitive performance compared to the state-of-the-art ontology matching systems. 1 The OAEI is an international initiative organizing annual campaigns for evaluating ontology matching systems. All of the ontologies provided by OAEI are described in OWL-DL language, and like most of the other participates our ERSOM also manages the OWL ontology in its current version. OAEI:

Abstract. With the increased use of ontologies in semantically-enabled applica-tions, the issue of debugging defects in ontologies has become increasingly im-portant. These defects can lead to wrong or incomplete results for the semantically-enabled applications. Debugging consists of the phases of detection and repairing. In this paper we introduce a system for repairing a particular kind of defects, i.e. missing relations in the is-a hierarchy of EL ontologies. 1
