Ontology-Based Contextual AI Evaluations (OB-CAIE) Methodology

The Ontology-Based Contextual AI Evaluations (OB-CAIE) methodology introduces a structured approach to AI evaluation by defining clear testing coverage and balancing human expertise with automation. It employs two ontologies—the Domain‑Specific Ontology (DSO) outlining what is tested, and the Evaluation Process Ontology (EPO) detailing how it is tested—to create a tractable problem space that can be applied to single or multiple AI evaluations. OB‑CAIE enables traceable, visualizable failure points and incorporates human judgment at scientifically grounded junctures where machine input is insufficient.

When CQs Go Wrong: Challenges in CQ Verification with OE-Assist

arXiv:2606. 24619v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Competency Questions (CQs) are the central component of CQ-verification, an established process in which an ontology is evaluated against a set of natural language questions to determine whether the intended purpose of the ontology has been properly modelled.

Constraint-Driven Context Engineering: Designing Domain Interfaces for AI Systems

The paper introduces Constraint-Driven Context Engineering (CDCE), a design approach that treats domain constraints as primary drivers for creating AI system interfaces. CDCE identifies, characterises, and operationalises constraints to determine necessary context assets and their representations, improving the quality and domain appropriateness of AI-generated solutions. A comparative multiple‑case study across education, healthcare, and finance demonstrates CDCE’s applicability and shows how constraint characteristics shape the resulting interfaces.

Beyond Benchmarks: LLM Evaluation with an Anthropomorphic and Lifecycle-oriented Roadmap

The paper argues that large language models (LLMs) are evaluated too narrowly, focusing on isolated technical metrics rather than holistic, developmental, and societal aspects. It proposes a diagnostic ontology that links evaluation dimensions to the LLM training pipeline, turning evaluation into a root‑cause analysis tool. The authors introduce an anthropomorphic framework—IQ, PQ, EQ, and VQ—to assess LLM capabilities, operationalize it with a modular architecture, and validate it through meta‑analysis of over 200 benchmarks, outlining key challenges and future directions.

Ontology-Grounded, Reasoner-Verified Benchmarks for Evaluating LLM Reasoning in Scientific AI

The paper introduces a pipeline that automatically creates ontology‑grounded multiple‑choice question benchmarks for evaluating large language models (LLMs) on logical reasoning tasks in scientific AI. By using OWL 2 ontologies, correct answers are guaranteed by design and distractors are generated and formally verified as incorrect through an OWL reasoner. Experiments on three ontologies—Pizza, PMDco, and DOID—yielded 112, 2,491, and 15,216 MCQs, respectively, with high natural‑language quality and challenging zero‑shot performance for six LLMs.

Ontology-supported AI Model and Dataset Management

The paper introduces an ontology-supported platform designed to facilitate the exchange, usage, and analysis of AI models and datasets. It addresses the need for effective management of AI assets in industrial settings by providing a structured framework that reduces semantic gaps. A real‑time critical systems use case demonstrates the platform’s practical utility.
