Abstract

This paper presents an evaluation of state of the art black box justification finding algorithms on the NCBO BioPortal ontology corpus. This corpus represents a set of naturally occurring ontologies that vary greatly in size and expressivity. The results paint a picture of the performance that can be expected when finding all justifications for entailments using black box justification finding techniques. The results also show that many naturally occurring ontologies exhibit a rich justificatory structure, with some ontologies having extremely high numbers of justifications per entailment.
