Abstract: In this article, the authors propose a new hybrid approach based on a continuous Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II) and a neural network to refine the alignment results. This approach consists of three phases: (i) pre-alignment phase which allows to identify the formats of input ontologies, to adapt them and to transform them into Ontology Web Language (OWL) in order to solve the problem of heterogeneity of representation. (ii) alignment phase which combines syntactic and linguistic matching techniques and methods, based on the relevant attributes per different points of syntactic and structural technic. (iii) The post-alignment phase which optimizes the matching by a hybrid technique of continuous NSGA-II and networks of neurons. This approach is compared with the greatest systems per the Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative (OAEI) standard. The experimental results appear that the proposed approach is effective.
