It combines ideas from Gärdenfors's Conceptual Spaces Model and Edmund Husserl's philosophical insights concerning ontology and dependency. We put forth a possible architecture for general ontologies based on a "horizontal" (dependency-based) and a "vertical" (abstraction-based) arrangement of the concepts in the ontology.
