Grenoble Alpes, France Ontology evolution Abstract: Unless considering ontologies as transcendental and perfect, they need to evolve. This may be because the world they represent evolves or the purpose they fulfill requires it. In general, what triggers evolution is the inadequacy of an ontology. Restoring it may be carried out by human designers or automatic means, but it is worthwhile that they follow rules. In this short presentation, we will discuss two techniques that may help evolving ontologies: belief revision and artificial cultural evolution. How they are different and how they are alike.
