以本體論為基礎推論室內空氣與環境品質知識庫之設計與應用

Design and application of an ontology-based indoorair quality and indoor environmental quality knowledge base

無論是工作或是居家休憩，國人每天約有80~90%的時間處於室內環境中，且世界衛生組織定義病態建築症候群（Sick Building Syndrome, SBS）主要起因於建築物室內空氣品質（Indoor Air Quality, IAQ）污染，導致使用者出現各種不適症狀。對於民眾而言，室內環境的優劣程度，不僅會影響工作品質及效率，更會對人體身心健康造成危害。本研究以本體論（Ontology）分析環境中影響人體健康的危害因子，範圍包含了室內空氣與環境品質的管理，並輔以住宅健診的實務與教研經驗，除了將常見的室內環境危害因子與其造成人體不適的疾病症狀建立連結，讓管理者能容易的瞭解環境危害與人體疾病之間的關聯性外，亦設計了具操作性的知識管理架構，並將其以知識庫方式應用於職場環境的管理系統中，協助物業管理者診斷與分析環境現況，並提供正確的健診衛教與處理方案，以期建構正確有效的室內環境管理作業。

Taiwanese people spend 80%-90% of their time in indoor environments, either at home or in the workplace. The World Health Organization defined the major cause of sick building syndrome as the pollution of indoor air quality, which causes people to experience various forms of discomfort. For the public, indoor environmental quality not only affects the quality and efficiency of work, but also harms physical and mental health. Based on ontology, this study analyzed the environmental risk factors influencing human health. The scope included indoor air and environmental quality management, as well as practical, teaching, and research experiences in building health diagnosis. In addition to linking prevalent indoor environmental risk factors to resulting forms of physical discomfort to enable managers to easily understand the correlation between environmental hazards and diseases, we designed an operable knowledge management structure and applied the structure to the management systems of working environments in the form of a knowledge base. The proposed system can help property managers diagnose and analyze current environmental situations, as well as provide accurate health diagnosis, health education, and solution measures to construct appropriate and effective operation of indoor environmental management.
