Towards a methodology for ontology based model engineering
Nicola Guarino,Chris Welty +1 more
TL;DR: This paper discusses the recent work towards developing a methodology for ontology-based model engineering, and demonstrates how these techniques can be used to analyze properties, which clarifies many misconceptions about taxonomies and helps bring substantial order to ontologies.
Restructuring WordNet's Top-Level: The OntoClean approach
TL;DR: The result is a “cleaned-up” WordNet, which is meant to be conceptually more rigorous, cognitively transparent, and efficiently exploitable in several applications.

Conceptual analysis of lexical taxonomies: the case of WordNet top-level
TL;DR: An analysis and an upgrade of WordNet's top-level synset taxonomy are proposed, which is meant to be more conceptually rigorous, cognitively transparent, and efficiently exploitable in several applications.
Proceedings Article
Formalizing ontological commitments
TL;DR: A formal definition of ontological commitment is presented which aims to capture the very basic ontological assumptions about the intended domain, related to issues such as identity and internal structure.
