TaBIIC2: Interactive Building of Ontological Taxonomies using Weighted Self-Organizing Maps
The paper presents TaBIIC2, a tool designed for the interactive construction of ontological taxonomies using weighted self-organizing maps. This approach aims to bridge the gap between manual and automatic methods for building taxonomies from tabular data. By identifying clusters and their definitions, the tool offers users more control over the taxonomy-building process.
- ▪TaBIIC2 enables the progressive and interactive construction of taxonomies.
- ▪The tool uses weighted self-organizing maps for clustering.
- ▪It aims to provide a balance between manual analysis and automatic methods.

At the core of an ontology is the taxonomy of concepts and subconcepts that represent specific entities, which can be complex to build. In many cases, information is available in the form of records describing the characteristics of relevant entities, i.e., tabular data.
