Refimprove date August 2007 Expert subject Philosophy date November 2008 In philosophy , a core ontology is a basic and minimal ontology consisting only of the minimal concepts required to understand the other concepts. It must be based on a core glossary in some human language so humans can comprehend the concepts and distinctions made. Each natural language tends to rely on its own conceptual metaphor structure, and so tends to have its own core ontology according to W. V. Quine . It could be said also to represent the moral core of a human linguistics linguistic culture , and to self correct so as to better represent core cultural ideas. Such a core ontology is a key pre requisite to a more complete foundation ontology , or a more general philosophical sense of ontology. Most applicable to education teaching , e.g. the Longmans defining dictionary of the simplest meanings of 2,000 English words is used to define the 4,000 most basic English idiom s this is a core glossary of the English language , which permits access to the core ontology the idioms . Core ontologies is a concept that is used in information science as well. For example the CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model CIDOC CRM is referred to as a core ontology.

Cognitive ontology is ontology study of being which begins from features of human cognition directly, as opposed to its collective summary which is reflected in language . The more radical forms of it challenge also the central position of mathematics as just another language which bias es human cognition.

Ontology merging defines the act of bringing together two conceptually divergent ontology computer science ontologies or the instance data associated to two ontologies. This is similar to work in database merging schema matching . This merging process can be performed in a number of ways, manually, semi automatically, or automatically. Manual ontology merging although ideal is extremely labour intensive and current research attempts to find semi or entirely automated techniques to merge ontologies. These techniques are statistically driven often taking into account similarity of concepts and raw similarity of instances through textual string metrics and semantic knowledge. These techniques are similar to those used in information integration employing string metrics from open source similarity libraries such as SimMetrics .
