EAPB: entropy-aware path-based metric for ontology quality.

Journal: Journal of biomedical semantics
Published Date: Aug 10, 2018

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Entropy has become increasingly popular in computer science and information theory because it can be used to measure the predictability and redundancy of knowledge bases, especially ontologies. However, current entropy applications that evaluate ontologies consider only single-point connectivity rather than path connectivity, and they assign equal weights to each entity and path.
