The Lightweight Domain Ontology Construction of Sichuan Cuisine Service

The domain ontology has been widely applied in various fields, but the Sichuan cuisine service (SCS). In this paper, a novel lightweight domain ontology of the SCS (DO-SCS) is artificially constructed to promote the extraction and sharing of knowledge (e.g., the service recommendation). First, the proposed DO-SCS consists of three concept levels which are extended from the root one, namely the SCS. Second, the ontologies in each level are given appropriate features with the inheritance principle. Third, the relations among the level-1 ontologies are constructed by their features. Finally, the visualization of ontologies, features, and relations are present to improve the readability. Through the evaluations of industry experts, our DO-SCS can support the fusion of Sichuan cuisine in various industries.
