Study on food safety ontology reasoning application based on Jena

This study constructs a food safety ontology which adopts OWL (Web Ontology Language) to represent food safety knowledge in a structural way in order to help knowledge requesters clearly understand food safety knowledge; subsequently designs some ontology reasoning rules for deducing food safety knowledge in order to share and reuse relevant food safety knowledge effectively; finally implement an ontology-based food safety knowledge reasoning mechanism. Results of this study facilitate the food safety knowledge storage, management and sharing to provide knowledge requesters with accurate and comprehensive food safety knowledge for problem solving and decision support.
