Abstract:

We defined the ontology models accurately with functional description language by analyzing the fruits of researches on ontology definition, and further, proposed a novel method of formal ontology definition, put forward a closed ontology algebra definition by defining the grade of similitude relevance between ontologies, and gave a formal description of ontology algebra with functional description language.

Key words: ontology definition, formal description, ontology algebra
