Exploring a Large Language Model for Transforming Taxonomic Data into OWL: Lessons Learned and Implications for Ontology Development
- 用ChatGPT-4从GBIF提取数据并生成OWL代码
- 自动生成算法比手动提示更高效,但受数据错误影响
- 适合需要快速构建生物分类知识库的研究者
由于物种分类体系持续变化,管理本体中科学名称极具挑战,尤其在涉及数千个名称时人工维护成本过高。本文探讨利用ChatGPT-4自动化构建农业产品类型本体(APTO)中的:Organism模块,以实现物种分类。方法包括:通过BrowserOP插件向ChatGPT-4发送一系列提示完成任务,或引导其设计可执行的Python算法。前者存在扩展性瓶颈,后者虽提升效率却受原始数据拼写错误干扰。研究显示,大型语言模型在自动化处理分类数据方面潜力巨大,能显著提升本体开发效率,尽管仍需解决数据质量与系统稳定性问题。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Managing scientific names in ontologies that represent species taxonomies is challenging due to the ever-evolving nature of these taxonomies. Manually maintaining these names becomes increasingly difficult when dealing with thousands of scientific names. To address this issue, this paper investigates the use of ChatGPT-4 to automate the development of the :Organism module in the Agricultural Product Types Ontology (APTO) for species classification. Our methodology involved leveraging ChatGPT-4 to extract data from the GBIF Backbone API and generate OWL files for further integration in APTO. Two alternative approaches were explored: (1) issuing a series of prompts for ChatGPT-4 to execute tasks via the BrowserOP plugin and (2) directing ChatGPT-4 to design a Python algorithm to perform analogous tasks. Both approaches rely on a prompting method where we provide instructions, context, input data, and an output indicator. The first approach showed scalability limitations, while the second approach used the Python algorithm to overcome these challenges, but it struggled with typographical errors in data handling. This study highlights the potential of Large language models like ChatGPT-4 to streamline the management of species names in ontologies. Despite certain limitations, these tools offer promising advancements in automating taxonomy-related tasks and improving the efficiency of ontology development.
