This paper presents a new ontology mapping method. This
method addresses the case in which a non-structured ontology is to be
mapped with a structured one. Both ontologies are composed of triplets
of the form (object, characteristic, value). Structured means that the
values describing the objects according to a given characteristic are hierarchically
organized using the a kind of relation. The proposed method
uses fuzzy conceptual graphs 8 to represent and map objects from a
source ontology to a target one. First, we establish a correspondence
between characteristics of the source ontology and characteristics of the
target ontology based on the comparison of their associated values. Then,
we propose an original way of translating the description of an object of
the source ontology using characteristics and values of the target ontology.
The description thus translated is represented as a fuzzy conceptual
graph. Finally, a new projection operation is used to find mappings between
translated objects and actual objects of the target ontology. This
method has been implemented and the results of an experimentation
concerning the mapping of ontologies in the field of risk in food are presented.
