The role of Adam Politzer (1835-1920) in the history of Otology.
The American journal of otology, 2000Co-Authors: Albert MudryAbstract:Purpose To study and understand the contribution made by Adam Politzer (1835-1920) to 20th century Otology and analyze his place in the history of Otology. Method A study of his four reference works, some of his hundreds of publications in medical journals, and diverse publications written about him. Results All areas of Otology have been studied, compiled, and improved through his assorted publications, notably his atlas of otoscopy published in 1865, the first work of its kind, expanded and reedited in 1896; his 10 tables of the anatomy of the ear amended in 1873; his textbook of the diseases of the ear, which was first published in two volumes in 1878 and 1882 and subsequently reedited four times as one volume, the last time being in 1908; his anatomy and histology book published in 1889; and his book on the history of Otology, which up to now is the most complete tome existing on the subject, edited in two volumes in 1907 and 1913. No other has been as prolific as he. He invented, in particular, a revolutionary method of making the eustachian tube permeable--a method that made him famous and carries his name. He also developed an acoumeter to measure hearing and was the first to describe certain pathologic conditions histologically, of which otosclerosis is one. Conclusion Politzer is certainly the greatest otologist of the 19th century and probably one of the greatest of all time. His influence on the 50 years of Otology has never been equaled. He deserves a double mention in the history of Otology: as an otologist and as a historian. It is in his honor that the International Society of Otology bears his name.

Contribution of Ambroise Paré (1510-1590) to Otology.
The American journal of otology, 1999Co-Authors: Albert MudryAbstract:Purpose of Study: To analyze Ambroise Pare's otologic knowledge and thus his contribution to Otology. Method: Written materials on Otology, taken from the fourth and final edition of Ambroise Pare's complete works, were reviewed. These works were published in French in 1585, which was during his lifetime. This study also includes a review of the international literature on the subject. Results: Ambroise Pare did not have as much effect on Otology as he did on 16th Century surgery. Nevertheless, his otologic knowledge was vast for the period, and he developed numerous treatments for auricular traumas. Conclusion: Because of his long experience as a war surgeon, Ambroise Pare's contribution to the discipline of the treatment of auricular traumas is undeniable.

The future of Otology
Journal of Laryngology and Otology, 2019Co-Authors: Robert K. Jackler, Taha A. JanAbstract:The field of Otology is increasingly at the forefront of innovation in science and medicine. The inner ear, one of the most challenging systems to study, has been rendered much more open to inquiry by recent developments in research methodology. Promising advances of potential clinical impact have occurred in recent years in biological fields such as auditory genetics, ototoxic chemoprevention and organ of Corti regeneration. The interface of the ear with digital technology to remediate hearing loss, or as a consumer device within an intelligent ecosystem of connected devices, is receiving enormous creative energy. Automation and artificial intelligence can enhance otological medical and surgical practice. Otology is poised to enter a new renaissance period, in which many previously untreatable ear diseases will yield to newly introduced therapies. This paper speculates on the direction Otology will take in the coming decades. Making predictions about the future of Otology is a risky endeavour. If the predictions are found wanting, it will likely be because of unforeseen revolutionary methods.

Research on Information Integration Based on Multiple Layers Ontology Approach
Computer Engineering, 2008Co-Authors: Xiao Tian-yuanAbstract:In order to resolve the semantic heterogeneous problem among dynamic information sources,existing information integration methods based on ontology is analyzed,and Multiple Layers Ontology Approach (MLOA) which contains global ontology layer,domain ontology layer and local ontology layer is presented. MLOA overcomes the faults of existing methods,simplifies the construction of global ontology,can integrate dynamic information sources which have different views on a domain,and support reusing existing ontology. MLOA makes it possible to integrate large-scale semantic heterogeneous information sources.

Research on Ontologies in Multi Agent System of Reconfigurable Assembly Line
Computer Simulation, 2007Co-Authors: Xiao Tian-yuan, Cims EAbstract:Ontology is significant for providing communication content language in multi agent manufacturing platform. Requirement of multi agent manufacturing ontology for reconfigurable assembly line was analyzed, and conclusion was made that providing general assembly knowledge and supporting reconfiguration procedure are two important issues and accordingly assembly line ontology was classified as general knowledge ontology and reconfiguration ontology. Reconfigurable assembly line of automotive transmission was made as background and ontology modeling based on this practical manufacturing background was studied. General knowledge ontology was defined by terminology abstraction and property design, Ontology modeling methods were applied to describe relation of product family, assembly process, assembly equipment and assembly line configuration. Also reconfiguration ontology was constructed by performatives reflecting assembly operational knowledge during system reconfiguration and was used to specify the assembly ability of agents. This ontology was used in the multi agent system of reconfigurable assembly line.

OTM Workshops - Ontology Evaluation through Usability Measures
Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2009Co-Authors: Núria CasellasAbstract:Current ontology methodologies offer guidance towards knowledge acquisition, ontology development (design and conceptualization), formalization, evaluation, evolution and maintenance. Nevertheless, these methodologies describe most of expert involvements within ontology validation rather vaguely. The use of tailored usability methods for ontology evaluation could offer the establishment of certain quality measurements and aid the evaluation of modelling decisions, prior ontology implementation. This paper describes the experimental evaluation of a legal ontology, the Ontology of Professional Judicial Knowledge (OPJK), with the SUS questionnaire, a usability evaluation questionnaire tailored to ontology evaluation.
