This thesis occurs in the context of the semantic web and particularly the P2P ressource sharing software called Somewhere. One wants to automatically discover mappings between ontologies described on each peer. Approaches uses methods from data mining, especially based on metadatas of documents referenced, logical inferences on knowledge description through the network, and P2P aspect. We want to be complementary with existings lexicals approaches, and exploit both ontologies structures and instances data.
