Ontology Matching is one of the hottest topic within the Semantic Web of recent years. There is still ample of space for improvement in terms of performance. Furthermore, current ontology matchers mostly concentrate on simple entity to entity matching. However, matching of whole structures could bring some additional complex relationships. These structures of ontologies can be captured as ontology patterns. The main theme of this thesis is an examination of pattern-based ontology matching enhanced with ontology transformation and pattern-based ontology alignment evaluation. The former is examined due to its potential benefits regarding complex matching and matching as such. The latter is examined because complex hypotheses could be beneficial feedback as complement to traditional evaluation methods. These two tasks are related to four different topics: ontology patterns, ontology transformation, ontology alignment evaluation and ontology matching. With regard to those four topics, this work covers the following aspects: * Examination of different aspects of ontology patterns. Particularly, description of relevant ontology patterns for ontology transformation and for ontology matching (such as naming, matching and transformation patterns). * Description of a pattern-based method for ontology transformation. * Introduction of new methods for an alignment evaluation; including using patterns as a complex structures for more detailed analysis. * Experiments and demonstrations of new concepts introduced in this thesis. The thesis first introduces naming pattern and matching pattern classification on which ontology transformation framework is based. Naming patterns are useful for detection of ontology patterns and for generation of new names for entities. Matching patterns are basis for transformation patterns in terms of sharing some building blocks. In comparison with matching patterns, transformation patterns have transformation links that represent way how parts of ontology patterns are transformed. Besides several evaluations and implementations, the thesis provides a demonstration of getting complex matching due to ontology transformation process. Ontology transformation framework has been implemented in Java environment where all generic patterns are represented as corresponding Java objects. Three main implemented services are made generally available as RESTful services: ontology pattern detection, transformation instruction generation and ontology transformation.
