Content Structuring through Ontological Inquiry
• Understanding the world in categories
• Multiple Ontologies may exist
• Ontologies are leveled
• Different things become thinkable in different ontologies
Sanjay Goel
Categories by AristotleCategories by Aristotle
• Substance• Quantity• Quality• Place• Date• Posture• State• Action• Passivity
Sanjay Goel
Theories of categories• Atomistic
– Facts are not existentially dependent of each other
– Parts can be understood independently of each other
• Holistic– Facts are existentially dependent of each other
– Parts can not be understood independently of each other
– Truth is Totality : Hegel
Sanjay Goel
Contemporary Ontological problems
• New categories are evolving– e.g. Tendency, Intentionality and so on
• Creation of New categorical Systems
