Abstract

This paper describes a work in constructing two models of knowledge representation (KR) in aiming to do evaluation of their achievement in contributing to increase performance of retrieving information on English Quran domain. Due to many approaches available to construct a KR in providing data for information retrieval process, there is a need to find out in what model the KR could provide a valuable contribution for retrieving information. We focused on ontology-based KR and graph database-based KR. We use Quranic Arabic corpus that available at http://www.corpus.quran.com as a source to build the KR. We extracted several data from it i.e. English token, token location, and token Part of Speech (POS). Protégé is used to construct the ontology and Neo4j is utilized in developing the graph database. Both KR models will be equipped in developing of an English Quran Question Answering system in order to evaluate their benefit.
