Using ontologies as a faceted browsing for heterogeneous cultural heritage collections

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

Abstract

In this paper we present a project regarding the possible use of multi-ple and interconnected OWL ontologies (GO!, HiCo, and Proles) in order to explore the semantic content of heterogeneous digital collections (a digital li-brary, a full-text scholarly edition, and a relational database) in the cultural her-itage domain (Geolat, Vespasiano da Bisticci Letters, and Zeri photo archive). The aim is to discover knowledge by revealing, through facets, possible latent connections - or even contradictory statements - between data, moving from person, places and dates in an event-centric dimension determined by a context-oriented perspective.
