Unsupervised Terminological Ontology Learning based on Hierarchical Topic Modeling
In this paper, we present hierarchical relationbased latent Dirichlet allocation (hrLDA), a data-driven hierarchical topic model for extracting terminological ontologies from a large number of heterogeneous documents. In contrast to traditional topic models, hrLDA relies on noun phrases instead of unigrams, considers syntax and document structures, and enriches topic hierarchies with topic relations. Through a series of experiments, we demonstrate the superiority of hrLDA over existing topic models, especially for building hierarchies. Furthermore, we illustrate the robustness of hrLDA in the settings of noisy data sets, which are likely to occur in many practical scenarios. Our ontology evaluation results show that ontologies extracted from hrLDA are very competitive with the ontologies created by domain experts.

Agentic Retrieval of Topics and Insights from Earnings Calls
Tracking the strategic focus of companies through topics in their earnings calls is a key task in financial analysis. However, as industries evolve, traditional topic modeling techniques struggle to dynamically capture e…
Hierarchical Retrieval with Out-Of-Vocabulary Queries: A Case Study on SNOMED CT
SNOMED CT is a biomedical ontology with a hierarchical representation, modelling terminological concepts at a large scale. Knowledge retrieval in SNOMED CT is critical for its application but often proves challenging due…
A semi automatic annotation approach for ontological and terminological knowledge acquisition
We propose a semi-automatic method for the acquisition of specialised ontological and terminological knowledge. An ontology and a terminology are automatically built from domain experts{'} annotations. The ontology forma…
Semi-Automatic Terminology Ontology Learning Based on Topic Modeling
Ontologies provide features like a common vocabulary, reusability, machine-readable content, and also allows for semantic search, facilitate agent interaction and ordering & structuring of knowledge for the Semantic Web …
Hierarchical Graph Topic Modeling with Topic Tree-based Transformer
Textual documents are commonly connected in a hierarchical graph structure where a central document links to others with an exponentially growing connectivity. Though Hyperbolic Graph Neural Networks (HGNNs) excel at cap…
