Description
Axiomé is developed as a Protégé-OWL plug-in and has five main functional areas. These are available as sub-tabs within the plug-in:
- Rule Graph tab that provides a graph structure to browse and explore the SWRL rule base
- Rule Visualization tab to visualize individual rules
- Rule Paraphrasing tab that displays an English-like text explanation for each rule
- Rule Categorization tab to automatically categorize rules in a rule base
- Rule Elicitation tab that provides a graphical templates to acquire new rules based on analysis of existing rules in a rule base.
A Rule Browser component is permanently displayed to show a tree-table representation of the SWRL rules in an ontology. This tree-table enables users to explore the rule base and launch any of five sub-tabs for the rule or group being explored.
Installation
The Axiomé plug-in is available and installed as one of the Protégé default plug-ins from version 3.4.2 of Protégé. To activate Axiomé, it should be checked in Project -> Configure -> Tab Widgets. To install Axiomé for older versions of Protégé, download Axiomé and unzip the zip file in the "plugins" folder in the Protégé directory.
