最新标签本体：标签和民俗分类法语义模型

The State of the Art in Tag Ontologies:A Semantic Model for Tagging and Folksonomies

当前,人们越来越关注协作化标签系统中标签数据的表示和共享。传统的标签(指随意标注的、没有与结构化本体相关联的标签)由于语言和语法的差异以及录入错误等,不适于做协作化处理。而且标签反映的是用户个人的观点,也不对同义词、词形变化或者其他对照映射关系做规范处理。因此笔者认为,标签的常规处理方法对语义协作的贡献非常有限,即便是有,要让计算机实现自动共享也是极其困难的。在语义层面上讨论数种协作标签标注的方法,提出一个标签协作标注和设计民俗分类法的概念模型,同时比较已有的标签本体,提出一个评价标准,并参照该标准讨论这些标签本体的优缺点。

There is a growing interest into how we represent and share tagging data in collaborative tagging systems. Conventional tags, meaning freely created tags that are not associated with a structured Ontology, are not naturally suited for collaborative processes, due to linguistic and grammatical variations, as well as human typing errors. Additionally, tags reflect personal views of the world by individual users, and are not normalised for synonymy, morphology or any other mapping. Our view is that the conventional approach provides very limited semantic value for collaboration. Moreover, in cases where there is some semantic value, automatically sharing semantics via computer manipulations is extremely prob- lematic. This paper explores these problems by discussing approaches for collaborative tagging activities at a semantic level, and presenting conceptual models for collaborative tagging activities and folksonomies. We present criteria for the comparison of existing tag Ontologies and discuss their strengths and weaknesses in relation to these criteria.
