A Novel Approach for Ranking Ontologies on the Semantic Web

In this paper, a novel approach ARRO (approach for ranking and retrieval ontologies) has been proposed for ranking ontologies on the semantic Web. The hierarchy of the ontology is regarded as one of the most important measures for ranking ontologies in ARRO. The semantic relations among the classes of the ontologies will be measured and the logic views of the query terms are formed. ARRO can combine the logic inference and ranking together through the logic view. At the end of the paper, experiments are performed and the validation of ARRO is proven
