Abstract

In the medical field, for the purpose of diagnosis and treatment of diseases, building knowledge base has received a lot of attention. The most important thing to build a knowledge base is representing the knowledge accurately. In this paper we suggest a knowledge representation method using Ontology technique with the datasets obtained from the domestic papers on Alzheimer disease that has received a lot of attention recently in the medical field. The suggested Ontology for Alzheimer disease defines all the possible classes: lexical information from journals such as 'author' and 'publisher' research subjects extracted from 'title', 'abstract', 'keywords', and 'results'. It also included various semantic relationships between classes through the Ontology properties. Inference can be supported since our Ontology adopts hierarchical tree structure for the classes and transitional characteristics of the properties. Therefore, semantic representation based query is allowed as well as simple keyword query, which enables inference based knowledge query using an Ontology query language 'SPARQL'.

의료 분야에서는 질병의 진단과 치료를 목적으로 하는 지식베이스 구축에 관심이 높다. 이러한 목적의 지식베이스를 구축하는데 가장 중요한 것은 정확하게 지식을 표현하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 온톨로지를 이용해 최근 의료 분야에서 많은 관심을 받고 있는 알츠하이머 질병과 관련한 국내 논문들을 대상으로 지식을 표현하는 방법을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 온톨로지 기반 지식 표현 방법은 저자, 발행기관 등과 같은 서지 정보에서 추출한 클래스들은 물론 논문의 제목, 초록, 키워드, 결론에서 추출한 연구 주제와 관련된 클래스들을 모두 정의하고 프로퍼티를 통해 클래스들간의 다양한 의미적 관계를 포함하고 있다. 그리고 클래스들간의 계층 관계와 프로퍼티의 이행적 특성도 포함하고 있기 때문에 이를 이용한 추론을 지원한다. 따라서 단순한 키워드 검색뿐만 아니라 의미에 기반을 둔 지식 검색이 가능하다. 또한 온톨로지 검색 언어인 SPARQL을 이용해 추론을 통한 지식 검색 요청을 보다 쉽게 표현할 수 있다.
