TY - CONF TI - Terminology Harmonization in Industry Classification Standards AB - Terminology as a research area has shifted from portraying terms as lexical units to a concept-oriented approach. Accordingly, the process of terminology harmonization has to cope with the concept orientation of term entries. One approach to harmonization is the integration of several terminologies into one centralized terminology repository, which is either formalized as a conceptual system or points to such systems. In contrast, we propose an approach adopting the linked data strategy by linking resources that preserve the initial terminologies with the corresponding lexical items and the related ontology concepts. As ontologies traditionally link concepts but not the natural language designation of concepts, we propose a model that utilizes terminologies for terminological and ontology lexicons for morpho-syntactic information. We illustrate our suggested approach, applying it to closely related but competing industry classification standards.
