Abstract:
Ontologies are set to play a vital role in the "Semantic Web", extending syntactic interoperability to semantic interoperability by providing a source of shared and precisely defined terms. An ontology is a formal representation of a set of concepts within a domain and the relationships between those concepts. It is used to reason about the properties of that domain, may be used to define the domain. Firstly, constructs concepts of sports domain ontology for sports named entities and sports related entities (objects), named entities relation (relationships) and entities instances (attribute) for the sports domain terms. In this sports domain ontology, addition to the relationships of concepts in the taxonomy, the non-taxonomic relationships between the concepts have been also built. In this paper, we present information retrieval from Sports Domain Ontology has done by using the First-Order Logic (FOL) and retrieve related concepts from it.
