مقایسه کارکرد نرم افزارهای طراحی هستی شناسی با تاکید بر زبان فارسی : طراحی نمونه اولیه هستی شناسی حوزه پزشکی مبتنی بر شواهد

هدف اصلی این پژوهش شناسایی نقاط قوت و ضعف نرم‏ افزارهای طراحی هستی‏ شناسی و کارکرد آن‏ها در زبان فارسی با استفاده از طراحی نمونه اولیه هستی‏ شناسی حوزه «پزشکی مبتنی ‏بر شواهد» است. این مقاله از نوع کاربردی است و از روش کتابخانه ‏ای و تحلیل محتوا برای گردآوری داده‏ ها استفاده شد. پنج نرم‏ افزار طراحی هستی‏ شناسی «کوگویی»، «سواپ»، «اوبو-ادیتور»، «آپولو»، و «پروتژ» به ‏لحاظ کارکرد و امکانات به ‏ویژه برای طراحی هستی‏ شناسی‏ های فارسی ارزیابی شده و مناسب‏ ترین ابزار برای طراحی هستی‏ شناسی «پزشکی مبتنی ‏بر شواهد» استفاده شد.در بررسی نرم ‏افزارها، «پروتژ» و «کوگویی» دارای امکانات و پشتیبانی بهتری بوده و استفاده از آن‏ها به‏ ویژه در طراحی هستی ‏شناسی به ‏زبان فارسی با مشکلات کمتری همراه بود. از آنجا که نرم‏ افزار «پروتژ» تطابق بیشتری با استانداردهای طراحی هستی ‏شناسی دارد، این نرم‏افزار برای طراحی هستی‏ شناسی «پزشکی مبتنی ‏بر شواهد» انتخاب شد و طی هفت گام مدل طراحی «نوی و مک‏گینساین» هستی ‏شناسی طراحی شد. با توجه به اینکه این هستی‏ شناسی نمونه اولیه بوده و تمام بخش ‏های آن نیاز به افزودن کلاس‏ها و روابط بیشتر دارد، پیشنهاد می‏شود در پژوهش‏ های آتی با توسعه این هستی‏ شناسی امکان استفاده از آن برای پایگاه ‏های اطلاعاتی این حوزه افزون ‏بر کاربرد آموزشی آن فراهم گردد.

comparing the functionality of ontology design software with an emphasis on persian language: designing an evidence-based medical ontology prototype

using tools describe clearly and accurately the steps, components and relationships between components of phenomena graphically or hierarchically is one of the conventional methods of education. ontology is a branch of philosophy for studying the nature of existence and give us a general picture of existence. in this article, by evaluation of some ontology designing software and selection of the best, we tried to provide a clear, formal and accurate description of the evidence-based medical field and the relationships between its components. therefore, the main goal of this research is to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the ontology designing software and their functionality in persian language by using the prototype design of ontology in the field of evidence-based medicine.this article is an applied research with library research and content analysis methods used to collect data. to identify ontology design software, a list of ontology design software was prepared by searching google and science direct document databases, world wide web consortium website, wikipedia, mohed’s article and various websites. 151 software were found, some were not restored and removed from the list. in the final review, 32 software were examined to select the most used and easiest software. kogoi, swap, obo-editor, apollo and protégé were selected as examples for the review. all of the softwares were installed, evaluated by reading the software training articles, the software guidebook and the reviews about and use of the software itself. the five investigated software were compared and by choosing the most suitable software, evidence-based medicine ontology was designed.in the review of the software, all programs are free to download and were written under java program. in terms of learning and using of software, protege program, obo-editor and kogoi are simpler and less complicated and have useful resources to learn the software. protege and kogoi have better features and support, and their use was associated with fewer problems, especially in the design of ontology in persian language. since protege software is more compatible with the standards of ontology design, this software was selected for the design of evidence-based medical ontology and was designed through 7 steps. considering that this ontology is a prototype, all its classes and relationships should be added. it is proposed to develop this ontology for future research.
