The model consists of four meta-classes: <nowiki>TypeSort</nowiki>, <nowiki>QuasitypeSort</nowiki>, <nowiki>RoleSort</nowiki>, and <nowiki>PhaseSort</nowiki>. It is intended to enrich the semantics of ontological classes by embedding abstract-level domain independent knowledge (called meta-knowledge) into OWL ontologies.

Welcome to the Protege Ontology Library!

This page is organized into the following groupings:

If your ontology is available in multiple formats, please feel free to link to it from multiple sections.

Please make insertions in alphabetical order. Thank you !!!


OWL ontologies

Information on how to open OWL files from the Protege-OWL editor is available on the main Protege Web site. See the Creating and Loading Projects section of the Getting Started with Protege-OWL Web page. Other ways to search for OWL ontologies include using Google: http://www.google.com/search?q=filetype:owl+owl, or the new Semantic Web search engine called Swoogle.

  • bhakti.owl: An OWL ontology for the transcendental states of consciousness experienced by practitioners of bhakti-yoga, a form of Vedic consciousness engineering.
  • Biochemical Ontologies: Over 30 ontologies for knowledge representation and reasoning across scientific domains. Ontologies are normalized into non-disjoint primitive skeletons and complex class expressions for DL reasoning. Ontologies describe atoms, bonds, molecules, macromolecules and the processes they participate in.
  • BioPAX: An OWL ontology for biological pathways, which is primarily used to exchange data between pathway resources.
  • BIRNLex: An ontology created by and for the Biomedical Informatics Research Network (BIRN) in order to provide a shared semantic framework in which to annotate BIRN data related to multi-resolutional, cross-species studies of neurodegenerative disease. BIRNLex follows the OBO Foundry best practices and makes use of other OWL-based OBO ontologies.

This domain includes information about K-12 students, teachers, schools, districts, enrollments, assessments, USDA food and nutrition programs, and on-line courses. Includes approximately 400 data elements. A case study will be presented at the Semantic Technology conference in March 2006. Feedback -> http://www.danmccreary.com.
