 | Neural networks and their applications in industry Author :Sarma, Dhruba J.;Sarma, Sumita C. Source: DESIDOC Bulletin of Information Technology :20(1-2) ; 2000 ; pp.29-36 Abstract : The article looks at the necessity of artificial intelligence and more specifically neural computing systems in today's competitive business world. Some fundamentals of neural network architecture are discussed, followed by advantages of such networks. The domains of commercial applications of neural technology are highlighted. The various applications that neural networks have been put to and the potential possibilities that exist in a variety of civil and military sectors are tremendous. The national and international scenario and what neural technology holds for us in the future are also covered. Keywords : Neural networks;Artificial intelligence;India

 | Developing an Ontology for Encoding Disease Treatment Information in Medical Abstracts Author :Khoo, S.G. Christopher;Na, Jin-Cheon;Wang, Vivian Wei;Chan, Syin Source: DESIDOC Journal of Library and Information Technology :31(2) ; 2011 ; pp.103-115 Abstract : A disease-treatment ontology is being developed to model and represent treatment information found in medical abstracts. Treatment information extracted from medical abstracts and medical articles can then be encoded in this ontology and used for information retrieval, question-answering, summarisation and knowledge discovery. This paper explains the initial version of the ontology developed based on an analysis of 50 medical abstracts on colon cancer therapy retrieved from the Medline database. The ontology divides disease-treatment information into five classes—disease, treatment, condition, effect, and evidence. The sub-classes, properties and instances of these main classes are discussed with examples. Keywords : Artificial Intelligence

 | Current communication technologies: An overview Author :Ashok Kumar;Udaya Sankar, L. Source: DESIDOC Bulletin of Information Technology :12(3) ; 1992 ; pp.3-10 Abstract : Like most of the current interdisciplinary technologies, advances in computer and communication are influencing many different areas such as printing, photography and mass communication. As a reeult of these developments, in future, one may read newspaper on computer screen using electronic mail, use high definition or digital TV, filmless cameras, and telecommute to work.

 | Ontology Development Methods Author :Gokhale, Pratibha A.;Deokattey, Sangeeta;Bhanumurthy, K. Source: DESIDOC Journal of Library and Information Technology :31(2) ; 2011 ; pp.077-083 Abstract : An ontology defines a common vocabulary for researchers who need to share information in a specific domain. It includes interoperability of basic concepts in the domain and relations among them. The present paper takes a brief overview of different tools and methods for developing ontologies, their relationship with artificial intelligence, followed by a review of literature on the same. Method for developing an ontology on energy amplifiers is discussed in brief Keywords : Artificial Intelligence

 | Construction and Applications of Ontology: Recent Trends Author :Deshpande, Neela J.;Varalakshmi, R.S.R. Source: DESIDOC Journal of Library and Information Technology :31(2) ; 2011 ; pp.084-089 Abstract : The purpose of ontology is to achieve inter-operability by providing a common terminology and understanding of a given domain of interest, which in turn allows for the assignment of clear meaning to learning object. Ontologies are used in artificial intelligence, biomedical informatics, library science, chemistry and many other subjects. The purpose of this paper is to make the library professionals alert about the literature published on ontology and applications of ontology Keywords : Artificial Intelligence

 | A Passage to Ontology Tool for Information Organisation in the Digital Age Author :Patkar, Vivek Source: DESIDOC Journal of Library and Information Technology :31(2) ; 2011 ; pp.090-102 Abstract : To facilitate access to relevant documents and information has been the core of the library and information science (LIS) profession. In this regard tools like classification, cataloguing, and indexing formed the basis of library practice for a long time. These served particularly well for the material that was predominantly in the print form and required physical location for storage. New information sources, however, in contrast are increasingly in the electronic or digital form and stored on medium like computer hard disks requiring completely different strategy for access and management. Extension of the traditional bibliographic control tools as well as construction of new tools has therefore become pertinent. Ontology is one of the latest tools in this context. The paper discusses progress of information organising tools culminating in ontology, highlights the commonality of the concept of ontology and its applications among the fields of philosophy, computer science and LIS. It also discusses the select features of ontology development in practice and directions for features of ontology development in practice and directions for further work Keywords : Artificial Intelligence
