用操作指标自动扩展知识图谱,降低维护成本。
COntExt: Towards Context-Aware Ontology Extension from Operational Metrics
- 基于指标上下文预测概念归属、关系类型和属性分配。
- 在4个安全领域本体上,性能优于仅依赖本体的基线方法。
- 适合需要低成本维护本体的组织或系统集成团队。
组织越来越多地以结构化、机器可读格式定义操作指标,用于监控系统、流程和合规性。这些指标定义隐含编码了领域知识,如概念、属性和关系,常超出正式本体所涵盖的内容。然而,操作指标目录与本体知识之间的关联仍依赖人工、随意且费力。我们提出 COntExt 框架,通过输入结构化指标定义,利用其上下文智能建议如何将引用的概念和属性整合到现有本体中。该框架将扩展问题分解为三个子任务:父类预测、关系类型预测和数据属性赋值。在四个网络安全本体上评估不同算法表现,结果表明,基于指标推导的上下文能显著提升关系类型预测与数据属性赋值的建议质量。研究证明,操作指标目录是实用且未被充分挖掘的本体扩展来源,可使组织以远低于人工工程的成本维持本体更新。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Organizations increasingly define operational metrics in structured, machine-readable formats to monitor systems, processes, and compliance. These metric definitions implicitly encode domain knowledge, such as referencing concepts, properties, and relationships, that often extends what is captured in formal ontologies. Yet the connection between operational metric catalogues and ontological knowledge remains manual, ad-hoc, and labor-intensive. We present COntExt, a framework for context-aware ontology extension that takes structured metric definitions as input and suggests how referenced concepts and properties should be integrated into an existing ontology, utilizing the context of these metrics. The framework defines the extension problem as three sub-tasks: parent class prediction, relation type prediction, and data property assignment. Across four cybersecurity ontologies, we evaluate different algorithms for each task. Our results show that metric-derived context improves the suggestions over ontology-context baselines for relation type prediction and data property assignment. Our work demonstrates that operational metric catalogues are a practical and underexploited source for ontology extension. This work enables organizations to maintain their ontologies at a significantly lower cost than manual engineering.
