Generative Ontology Induction: Domain-Agnostic Schema Discovery from Document Corpora Using Large Language Models
Researchers present Generative Ontology Induction (GOI), a framework that leverages large language models to automatically generate structured ontologies from document corpora without relying on predefined schemas. GOI demonstrates 95-100% structural coverage across diverse domains, outperforming generic template-based approaches, as measured by a novel Node Coverage Score metric. The method is validated on four contrasting ontologies, showing robust performance even in unfamiliar domains.
Why it matters: This work offers a significant advance in automating ontology engineering, a longstanding bottleneck in knowledge-intensive AI systems, by enabling domain-agnostic schema discovery.
