On the evaluation of linguistic ontological models: An application on the SemQ ontology

This paper presents an approach for evaluating domain specific linguistic ontology. The approach used a set of questions pertaining to the internal structure of the ontology and employed to evaluate the SemQ linguistic ontology, an ontology for representing semantic oppositions in the Holy Quran. We believe following such an approach for evaluating linguistic ontologies will create a custom-specific evaluation approach underlying the needs of each ontology.
