Re: Calculating concept distance in an ontology

Besides the ontology alignment literature, there are also some papers (and
even systems) on similarity of concepts and instances within one ontology:



(SimPack Framework) Bernstein, A., Kaufmann, E., Bürki, C., Klein, M.,
2004.

Object Similarity in Ontologies: A Foundation for Business

Intelligence
Systems and High-Performance Retrieval.

In: 25th Int. Conf. on Information
Systems



Oldakowski, R., Bizar, C., 2005. SemMF: A Framework

for Calculating
Semantic Similarity of Objects Represented

as RDF Graphs, Poster at the 4th
Int. Semantic

Web Conference



Culmone, R., Rossi, G. and Merelli, E., 2002.
An Ontology

Similarity Algorithm for BioAgent (Poster),

NETTAB02 Agents
in Bioinformatics, Bologna



and last but not least, our own approach as
described in:



Hefke, M., Zacharias, V., Biesalski, E., Abecker A., Wang,
Q., Breiter, M.

An extendable Java Framework for Instance Similarities in
Ontologies

In: 8th International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems,
23 - 27, May 2006, Paphos - Cyprus 

(so its not really published yet, but
I could send it to you)



or



Maedche, A., Zacharias, V.:

Metadata in the Semantic Web

Conference on Machine Learning (ECML'02) and 6th European Conference on Principles
