Difference between the Ontology discussed in philosophical literature and Ontology in computer science
Ontology is known as the branch of philosophy concerned with the study of the nature of being. The ontology discussed in philosophical themes studies concepts such as existence, being, becoming, and reality. However, when computer scientists are referring to “an ontology” they mean a computer implementation of humanlike knowledge; a set of concepts and categories in a subject area or domain that shows their properties and the relations between them. Ontologies are descendants of the semantic networks in Artificial Intelligence.
