Abstract

Knowledge graphs and ontologies represent information in a variety of different applications. One use case, the Intelligence, Surveillance, & Reconnaissance: Mutli-Attribute Task Battery (ISR-MATB), comes from Cognitive Science, where researchers use interdisciplinary methods to understand the mind and cognition. The ISR-MATB is a set of tasks that a cognitive or human agent perform which test visual, auditory, and memory capabilities. An ontology can represent a cognitive agent’s background knowledge of the task it was instructed to perform and act as an interchange format between different Cognitive Agent tasks similar to ISR-MATB. We present several modular patterns for representing ISR-MATB task instructions, as well as a unified diagram that links them together.

Notes

  1. 1.

    A schema diagram is an informal, but intuitive way for conveying information about the structure and contents of an ontology. We use a consistent visual syntax for convenience, detailed in Fig. 2.

  2. 2.

    See https://raw.githubusercontent.com/undiffagents/uagent/develop/ontology/uagent.owl.

  3. 3.

    See https://daselab.cs.ksu.edu/content/domain-ontology-instruction.

  4. 4.

    [9] is a modular ontology design library; it contains a set of frequently used patterns and respective documentation.
