| Over the past few years the number of bio-ontologies has rapidly increased. The evaluation of ontologies has long been a problematic issue. The growing number of ontologies makes the need for a strategy for evaluating quality more urgent. We propose a framework for evaluating the quality of bio-ontologies. This framework is inspired by a well-known software quality standard, which has been adapted to the needs of ontology evaluation. An example of how to use the framework, comparing two versions of the Open Biomedical Ontologies' Cell Type Ontology, is included as an illustration. |
