Readings

 * YU Methods in Bio Ontologies
 * B. Chandrasekaran et al. What are ontologies and why do we need them?

Class Notes
Yu’s approach to ongologies- are they disjoint:


 * 1) .Approach- Cognitive- ways we see the world through our distillation
 * 2) .Approach – Realist- ways of seeing the natural world, through language that is widely accepted in a domain

The Pragmatism of an ontology—to what extent are they supposed to help us? Not just help, but what are they supposed to do?
