Contextes :
  • Candidates for artifact washes should be exceptional in depositional and recovery context, anything less only furthers the ambiguity of interpretation.
  • Ambiguity may arise when multiple terms are used to mean the same thing, or when one term is used with multiple meanings (synonym, anonyms, is-a relation, part-of relation, and location).
  • Ontology is a formal definition of the domain and annotation based on ontology, by removing ambiguity from definition, makes integration between different sources of information possible.
