Abstract
Ontology mapping is important when working with more than one ontology. Typically similarity considerations are the basis for this. In this paper an approach to integrate various similarity methods is presented. In brief, we determine similarity through rules which have been encoded by ontology experts. These rules are then combined for one overall result. Several boosting small actions are added. All this is thoroughly evaluated with very promising results.
