COMPLEX INFORMATION OBJECTS REPOSITORY AS A COMPONENT OF THE SEMANTIC ANALYTIC-INFORMATION WEB-ORIENTED SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT

Introduction.  The paper examines the issue of reusing ontological knowledge in semantic analytical and informational web-oriented systems and analyzes the problems that arise in the process of searching for and exporting such knowledge from external ontologies. It proposes to create a repository of complex information objects, which should expand the functionality of services provided by ontology repositories, and provide opportunities to search for elements of such ontologies at the content level, taking into account the semantics of the relationships between them. The work states the basic requirements for such a repository, analyzes the technologies that can be used to replenish it, and offers some examples of areas of its practical use. The proposed approach consideres on a practical example of the creation of a semantic directory for finding educational materials, which is oriented towards functioning in an open web environment and exporting information from external sources. The prototype of the system is implemented on the basis of the semantic extension of wiki technology, and the elements of the structure of complex information objects processed in the system are obtained from relevant external ontologies.

The purpose of the paper is to develop algorithms and methods of using formalized ontological knowledge of the subject area for the creation of applied semantically oriented information and analytical systems, to export knowledge from external ontologies, to create a repository of complex information objects with extended functionality of services.

The results. Development of the concept of a repository of complex information objects for applied systems of artificial intelligence, which provides a search for instances of various ontological classes connected by certain types of semantic relations. Improvement of existing functionalities of ontology repositories due to export of knowledge about the structure of CIO from external sources of knowledge and semantically marked documents. The developed algorithms and methods of creating repositories of complex information objects make it possible to analyze complex collections of different classes of information objects, interconnected by relationships, restrictions and rules for semantic analytical and informational web-oriented systems. The basic requirements for the repository are formed and the method of its replenishment is presented. The obtained results make it possible to create original intelligent information systems for artificial intelligence in the field of big data processing, cyber security, competence analysis when creating professional groups for the implementation of an innovative project, human resources management, finance and business, for companies that work with dynamically changing content of documents (jurisprudence , standardization, state authorities), national security, defense and military spheres.

Conclusions.  The proposed original approach, algorithms and method for improving the repository of complex information objects, expanding its functionality and ensuring its replenishment due to the export of knowledge from external sources (Wikipedia, encyclopedias, dictionaries, repositories of scientific publications, directories) and semantically marked documents and tracking dynamic changes occurring in these sources and documents. A prototype of the semantic web-oriented system “e-Textbook” is created, which ensures the selection of relevant textbooks for teachers and students of educational institutions for work programs of educational disciplines. The application of ontologies and data in the “e-Textbook” system based on the semantic analysis of metadata and the determination of the semantic similarity of structural data models (ontologies, data) and the formation of a ranked set of related ontologies to solve the tasks.

Keywords: wiki, knowledge-oriented information resource, ontology, formal ontology model, intelligent information system, ontology repository, complex information object.
