Abstract

The aim of this paper is to propose a new coefficient of integrity I_{new} for improving N_{Plus} measure which is an improvement of the T_{Ngom} measure. In N_{Plus} measure, the coefficient of integrity used (I) decreases and tends to 0 fastly when we just add some concepts for extendind set of resemblance of ontologies. To fix this problem, we introduce R, the coefficient of representativeness of concepts added in the ontology for its extension. I_{new} decreases slowly compared to I and depends to the cardinality of the ontology extended and the number of concepts added to it too.
