Abstract:
Semiotic mapping is the part of semantic quality of business processes. Semantic quality is crucial for business processes validation. It related to correctness and completeness of the business processes in problem domain. Semantic quality is concerned with semantic similarity measurement between two words and concepts. Semantic similarity is current area which is expanded widely, it attempts to calculate relatedness between words, ideas, sentences and documents. Comparability among two words is a proportion of the likeliness of their meanings, computed depends on the ideas and their relationships in ontology and taxonomy. In our research we applying some similarity measures on activity labels of model for improve the Model quality, Model matching, Model validation and it can help in generation of process models. We applying the WordNet based similarity measures between Activity labels of process models and extracted Activity labels from textual description of process models. In this research we conduct the semiology mapping of syntactic/string based and semantic based. In syntactic similarity we conduct the term based similarity in which we apply the Cosine similarity and in semantic similarity we conduct the knowledge based similarity that consists of relatedness and similarity measures. We only applying the similarity measures that consists of path length. Path length consists of WUP and path. We proposed to use cosine WUP and path similarity measures on labels for semiology mapping.
