Popis: Liver diseases pose a significant global health burden, impacting a substantial number of individuals and exerting substantial economic and social consequences. Rising liver problems are considered a fatal disease in many countries, such as Egypt, Molda, etc. The objective of this study is to construct a predictive model for liver illness using Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) and detection rules derived from a decision tree algorithm. Based on these rules, events are detected through batch processing using the Apache Jena framework. Based on the event detected, queries can be directly processed using SPARQL. To make the ontology operational, these Decision Tree (DT) rules are converted into Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL). Using this SWRL in the ontology for predicting different types of liver disease with the help of the Pellet and Drool inference engines in Protege Tools, a total of 615 records are taken from different liver diseases. After inferring the rules, the result can be generated for the patient according to the DT rules, and other patient-related details along with different precautionary suggestions can be obtained based on these results. Combining query results of batch processing and ontology-generated results can give more accurate suggestions for disease prevention and detection. This work aims to provide a comprehensive approach that is applicable for liver disease prediction, rich knowledge graph representation, and smart querying capabilities. The results show that combining RDF data, SWRL rules, and SPARQL queries for analysing and predicting liver disease can help medical professionals to learn more about liver diseases and make a Decision Support System (DSS) for health care.
