Ontology Verbalization
A subtask of natural language generation that converts formal axioms in an ontology, such as class inclusions, property constraints and instance assertions, into readable natural language text.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Traditional ontology verbalization methods mostly rely on rule-based or template-based techniques, can only handle strictly formalized schema axioms, and produce rather rigid descriptions that struggle to convey richer contextual semantics.
Ontology verbalization is a subtask of natural language generation whose goal is to convert formal axioms in an ontology (such as class inclusions, property constraints, and instance assertions) into readable natural language text.
Early template-based ontology verbalization methods map SubClassOf(A, B) directly to "A is a subclass of B"; such methods are highly controllable and produce deterministic output, but rely heavily on manually written template libraries and struggle to cover complex or unconventional axiom patterns.
