Participation on Research Projects

SpeedUp - BMBF funded Project (05/2009 - *)
- The MCI-Ontology (Mass Casualty Incident) is a formal DL-based ontology developed in the SpeedUp project.
  The ontology is currently focused on concepts of German fire and medical rescue services.
BMBF/ESF funded EXIST-SEED Project (09/2006 - 09/2007) :
- OSOTIS: Academic Video Search (Automated Annotation and Search in Multimedia Presentations FKZ: 03ESFTH045 )
Local ECCC-Mirror with NPBibSearch, an ontology augmented bibliographic search engine.
In NPBibSearch two ontologies supports the retrieving methods in this search engine:
- NPTheory.owl^{(1.7 MB)} is a knowledge base on NP-complete decision problems.
  They covert a list of over 450 decision problems and theirs reference papers in Dublin Core style.
- ComplexityZoo.owl^{(0.5 MB)}, a flat ontology realisation of kinds of particular complexity classes
  (currently amount of 462), based on the QWiki-page ComplexityZoo. This ontology is imported
  into the NPTheoryOntology for purpose of complexity classes references.
  
  Note: Both ontologies are still experimental and will be updated once in a (long) while...
