IKS BHU:About

This project explores the development of an Ontological Middleware (OM) designed to bridge the gap between contemporary learners and the knowledge contained within Indian Śāstras. By formalizing the inherent structure of heritage texts into ontologically-aligned Knowledge Graphs, the OM serves as a programmatic gateway. This provides developers and researchers with handles to discover, navigate, and query information that remains faithful to traditional Indian epistemological frameworks.

The project exposes the ontologies for the texts, as well as the ontologies for navigating the system that hosts the knowledge within these texts. This wiki is a intermediate-to-final product that showcases the project deliverables in a format that is user friendly (low learning curve, familiarity, ease of use for viewing editing moderating).
