**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.
