ABSTRACT = {In this paper, we present a method for extracting subontologies
from ELH ontologies for a set of symbols. The approach is focused
on the generation of upwardly abstracted definitions of concepts,
which is a technique for computing definitions expressed using 
closest primitive ancestors. The subontologies returned by the method
are evaluated for quality and compared to extracts computed with
locality-based modularisation and uniform interpolation. Our 
subontology generation method produces promising results in terms
of size and relevance to the needs of domain experts.}
