Ranking ontologies in the Ontology Building Competition BOC 2014

Due to the constantly increasing amount of ontologies available, the need for tools supporting ontology evaluation and ranking is crucial. In this paper, we present a Web tool for evaluating and ranking ontologies. The ontologies are evaluated against various structural and semantic metrics. We describe the metrics developed for the ranking system and present the system's results in the context of the Ontology Building Competition 2014 - a learning environment for developing ontologies.
