ThOR Ontology

The objective of ThOR Ontology is to provide a vocabulary for building lexicons and thesauri for a same domain. The OWL implementation of the ThOR Ontology is designed to provide an implementation artifact to structure a knowledge base (or knowledge graph), being suitable for Semantic Web and Linked Data applications. The ThOR Ontology uses concepts from SKOS, Ontolex, and Lexinfo, complementing them for accomplishing the purpose of being used for representing a lexicon that can be further transformed into a thesaurus using a specific tool built for this purpose, the Ontolex2SKOS.

ThOR stands for “Thesaurus and Ontology Representation”. The ThOR Project was a collaboration project that happened in 2021 between the Zorginstituut Nederland (ZIN) – the Dutch National Health Care Institute – and the Conceptual and Cognitive Modeling Research Group (CORE) from the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano (Unibz).

More information about the developed work is available in our published paper.
