What (bio-)ontologies are for
6
what molecular function ?
what disease process ?
need for semantic annotation of data
7
need for semantic annotation of data
through labels (nouns, noun phrases)which are algorithmically processable

ontologies are legends for data

ontologies are legends for images

what brain region ?
what brain function ?

xi = vector of measurements of gene i k = the state of the gene ( as “on” or “off”)θi = set of parameters of the Gaussian model......
ontologies are legends for mathematical equations

annotation using common ontologies can yield integration of image data
23
annotation using common ontologies can support comparison of image data
24
truth
25
simple representations can be true
26
there are true cartoons
27
a cartoon can be a veridical representation of reality
28
Cartographic Projection
29
maps may be correct by reflecting topology, rather than geometry
30
a fully labeled image can be aneven more veridical representation of reality
an image can be a veridical representation of reality
31
cartoons, like maps, always have a certain threshold of granularity
32
grain resolution
33
grain resolution serves cognitive accessibility
we transform true imagesinto true cartoons
34
instances vs. types
35
two kinds of annotations
36
names of instances
37
names of types
38
pathway maps are representations of complexes of types
39
molecular images and radiographic images are
representations of instances

There is only one realitybut many different representations thereof, including many different ontologies
different ontologies can be simultaneously veridical, e.g. because of non-overlapping domains, or because of differential selection
(“multi-perspectivalism”)
51
Reality exists before any representation
R
And also most structures in reality are there a priori
52
The ontologist becomes with a mental representation (‘Bild’)
R
B1
Some portions of reality escape his attention.
53
R
a part of which he concretizes in an ontology
O1
B1
#1
both mental representation and ontology refer to the same reality

A second ontologist makes a different selection

Veridical ontologies can always be mapped by taking reality as
benchmark

but ontologies can be non-veridical, because of different
kinds of errors
errors of mismatch with reality
errors of understanding
errors of coding
