Ontologías regulatorias
From EmergiaWiki
Regulatory ontologies are a type of ontologies concerned with the description of rules and regulations within the social world, such as e-government, or e-commerce.
The call of papers for the Second International Workshop on Regulatory Ontologies (WORM 2004) celebrated in Larnaca, Cyprus, in 2004, gave the following explanation:
"Modeling and deploying regulatory knowledge has some specifics that differentiate it out from other kinds of knowledge modeling: reasoning methods and application scenarios, the legal weight (/order) of regulations, parsing legal texts requires special semantic patterns, the sensitivity in cross-boarder regulations, etc."
The issues of interest of the workshop included:
- Engineering of regulatory ontologies: conceptual analysis, representation, modularization and layering, reusability, evolution and dynamics, etc;
- Multilingual and terminological aspects of regulatory ontologies;
- Models of legal reasoning (from ontological viewpoint): regulatory compliance, case-based reasoning, reasoning with uncertainty, etc.
- Sensitivity on and harmonization of regulations;
- Regulatory metadata and content standardization (e.g. legal-XML/LeXML,ADR/ODR-XML,...);
- Regulatory ontologies of: property rights, persons and organizations, legal procedures, contracts, legal causality, etc;
- Task models for socially regulated activities;
- Experiences with projects and applications involving regulatory ontologies in legal knowledge based systems, legal information retrieval, e-governments, e-commerce;
- Automated extraction of Information from regulatory documents.
