摘要作为科学论文内容的组成部分,论证结构揭示了科学论文内的重要观点、结论及其论证过程,是论文内蕴含的一类重要隐性知识。规范描述和准确表征论文内的论证结构,对于科学论文的语义增强、语义检索和基于文献的知识发现具有重要意义。本文针对科学论文的论证结构,基于通用的论证理论,在复用多个出版物相关本体的基础上,构建了一个新颖的论证本体(scientific paper argumentation ontology,SAO),包括7个核心类、13个扩展类和15种关系。为了评估SAO本体的可用性,本研究选择图书情报与生物医学领域的40篇科学论文进行了语义标注应用实验。统计结果表明,SAO本体具有较强的论证单元和论证结构的表达能力,不同领域的科学论文的论证结构相似,但存在一定差异。
