Comparative Analysis of Ontology Alignment Methodology

Context based searches is always the area which admires by different researchers. Ontology hence, is the way to develop such a semantic web. However, alignment is the way to properly align Ontologies to actually develop the semantic environment. Thus interoperability between different classes can be maintained in order to optimize the context based searches. There exist different methods to map the given Ontologies to make their classes or attributes unique. However, every of them have some drawbacks. We will critically analyze different published methods according to their common attributes. 1. In troduction T here exist different algorithms that can align the Ontology. The term “mapping” is referred when doing an alignment. Each has its own advantages and drawbacks. In this paper, we will define those methods, present work of other authors and critically analyze each method as per their common attribute in order to make an effective way to align the Ontology. This will enable other authors to analyze from the proposed dimension and subsequently refine to make it more effective.
