Ontologies are conceptual models identifying the concepts of a domain. They contain machine "understandable" descriptions of the relations between the concepts.</p> <p>ONKI is published and maintained by <a href="http://www.seco.tkk.fi/" target="_blank" class="blue">Semantic Computing Research Group SeCo</a>.
