About ONTOBRAS 2024

Ontology is an interdisciplinary field that studies concepts and theories that provide the basis for the construction of shared conceptualizations of specific domains. In recent years, we have noticed a growing interest in the application of ontologies for solving modeling and classification problems in various areas such as Computer Science, Information Science, Philosophy, Artificial Intelligence, Linguistics, Knowledge Management, Semantic Web, among others.

The Brazilian Ontology Research Seminar (ONTOBRAS) foresees an opportunity and provides a scientific environment in which researchers and professionals from the fields of Information Science and Computer Science can exchange knowledge about theories, methodologies, languages, tools, and experiences related to the theoretical foundation, development, and application of ontologies.

In its 17th edition, ONTOBRAS 2024 is part of a tradition that dates back to 2005 in Brazil, which was defined by the Brazilian Ontology Community as a unique, scientifically highly qualified forum for the presentation and discussion of ontologies and application cases in Brazil.

Support

The ONTOBRAS series has support from the International Association for Ontology and Applications (IAOA), a non-profit organization with the purposes of promoting interdisciplinary research and international collaboration at the intersection of philosophical ontology, linguistics, logic, cognitive science, and computer science. The IAOA also provides forums for the development of applications of ontological analysis to conceptual modeling, knowledge engineering, knowledge management, information-systems development, library and information science, scientific research, and semantic technologies in general. 

ONTOBRAS proceedings are published under IAOA Series at CEUR-WS.org since 2019, and the Brazilian seminar is part of IAOA events calendar.

Join IAOA and become part of this international community. Individual registrations are free of charge, and members enjoy a list of benefits, including free access to IOS Press publications relevant to the field of ontology:

  • Applied Ontology – An Interdisciplinary Journal on Ontological Analysis and Conceptual Modeling
  • Proceedings of the international conference on Formal Ontology in Information Systems (FOIS)
  • Proceedings of the international conference on Formal Ontology Meets Industry (FOMI)
