RESUMO

The recent developments related to knowledge management, the semantic web and the exchange of electronic information through the use of agents have increased the need for ontologies to describe, in a formal way, shared understanding of a given domain. For computers and people to work in cooperation it is necessary that information have well defined and shared definitions. Ontologies are enablers of that cooperation. However, ontology construction remains a very complex and costly process, which has hindered its use in a wider scale. This work presents a method for the semi-automatic construction of ontologies using texts of any domain for the extraction of concepts and relations. By comparing the relative frequency of terms in the text with their expected use and extracting specific linguistic patterns, the method identifies concepts and relations and specifies the corresponding ontology using OWL for further use by other applications.
