 Ontology evolution
 Abstract: Unless considering ontologies as transcendental and perfect,
 they need to evolve. This may be because the world they represent
 evolves or the purpose they fulfill requires it. In general, what
 triggers evolution is the inadequacy of an ontology. Restoring it may be
 carried out by human designers or automatic means, but it is worthwhile
 that they follow rules. In this short presentation, we will discuss two
 techniques that may help evolving ontologies: belief revision and
 artificial cultural evolution. How they are different and how they are
 alike.
