DESCRIPTION
This course is for absolute beginners in ontology. It provides an introduction to the Protégé 4.2 ontology editor, details of which can be found here.
It will begin with a brief introduction to ontology building, and to the use and importance of ontologies, with examples from medicine and defense. This will be followed by an introduction to the Web Ontology Language (OWL). The bulk of the course will consist of an interactive introduction to the use of Protégé in building an ontology. No background in the use of computer languages and programming is presupposed. All sessions will be highly interactive.

The tutorial is designed for participants having little to no experience in creating ontologies using computers. The goal is to provide a sufficiently broad covering of OWL, Protégé, and other semantic web technologies so that participants can be immediately productive and have an understanding of the range of technologies that they build upon to support their own projects.
Day 1 will begin with an introduction to the theory and best practices of ontology development delivered by Barry Smith. Following this introduction will be a survey of the Web Ontology Language (OWL) that can be used to express the content of an ontology. The remainder of the day will turn to the more practical matter of using Protégé to write an ontology in OWL, including how to import terms from other ontologies using the MIREOT method. An example ontology will be created in this section of the course and participants will have the opportunity to acquire hands-on experience in the use of Protégé.
Day 2 will demonstrate how to enhance the capabilities of the standard version of Protégé with plugins, including the use of OWL-reasoners and the SPARQL Query Language for RDF to expand and explore ontologies. The course will conclude with a comparison of Protégé with the Free Edition of TopBraid Composer ™ and a brief overview of common problems arising from the use of OWL to express an ontology.
It will familiarize participants with:
- the use of the Protégé-OWL editor to create and maintain ontologies
- enhancing Protégé with plugins
- OWL reasoning and the use of the query language SPARQL
During the hands-on portion of the course, participants will learn how to navigate the latest version of the Protégé tool set, which supports the full OWL 2 standard.
Background Reading
- A short but useful introductory tutorial on Protege-OWL can be found at Getting Started with Protege 4.
- A more comprehensive treatment is provided in Matthew Horridge's Protege-OWL Tutorial.
- Barry Smith's Ontology Page, including links to audio and video presentations, and a page containing introductory material on ontology.
FACULTY BIOS
Ron Rudnicki has a background in the areas of software quality assurance, database programming, application development and data warehousing. For the last 6 years he has developed ontologies for the Biometric Identity Management Agency, Army Net-Centric Data Strategy Center of Excellence (ANCDS CoE), and the IARPA Knowledge and Discovery Program. He is currently employed as a Senior Research Scientist at CUBRC, Inc.
Alan Ruttenberg is Director of the University at Buffalo Clinical and Translational Data Exchange. He is a prominent contributor to ontology research, and especially in the use of Semantic Web technology for integrating and querying biomedical knowledge.
Barry Smith is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy in the University at Buffalo. He has published many papers on theoretical and applied ontology and is involved in multiple ontology projects in the biomedical, military and other domains.
