Abstract
In this paper we describe a plug-in (OntoLT) for the widely used Protégé ontology
development tool that supports the interactive extraction and/or extension of
ontologies from text. The OntoLT approach provides an environment for the integration
of linguistic analysis in ontology engineering through the definition of
mapping rules that map linguistic entities in annotated text collections to concept
and attribute candidates (i.e. Protégé classes and slots). The paper explains
this approach in more detail and discusses some initial experiments on deriving
a shallow ontology for the neurology domain from a corresponding collection of
neurological scientific abstracts.
