Folksonomies to Support Coordination and Coordination of Folksonomies

Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), 2018
Members of highly-distributed groups in online production communities face challenges in achieving coordinated action. Existing CSCW research highlights the importance of shared language and artifacts when coordinating actions in such settings. To better understand how such shared language and artifacts are, not only a guide for, but also a result of ...

Folksonomy Formation

Computer, 2011
Tags, words or short phrases attached to items on the Internet, organize the social Web. Unlike expert-maintained taxonomies such as the Dewey Decimal Classification, tags evolve organically based on the collective action of individual users. The collection of tags in a tagging system, called a folksonomy, can vary widely from site to site.

Folksonomy

2010
This chapter discusses folksonomies as a novel way of indexing documents and locating information based on user generated keywords. Folksonomies are considered from the point of view of knowledge organization and representation in the context of user collaboration within the Web 2.0 environments. Folksonomies provide multiple benefits which make them a

MAP-based image tag recommendation using a visual folksonomy

open access: yesPattern Recognition Letters, 2010
Descriptive tags are needed to enable efficient and effective search in vast collections of images. Tag recommendation represents a trade-off between automatic image annotation techniques and manual tagging.

Query Logs as Folksonomies

Datenbank-Spektrum, 2010
Query logs provide a valuable resource for preference information in search. A user clicking on a specific resource after submitting a query indicates that the resource has some relevance with respect to the query. To leverage the information of query logs, one can relate submitted queries from specific users to their clicked resources and build a ...

Folksonomy and information retrieval

Proceedings of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 2007
AbstractIn Web 2.0 services “prosumers” ‐ producers and consumers ‐ collaborate not only for the purpose of creating content, but to index these pieces of information as well. Folksonomies permit actors to describe documents with subject headings, “tags“, without regarding any rules. Apart from a lot of benefits folksonomies have many shortcomings (e.g.

Pragmatic evaluation of folksonomies

Proceedings of the 20th international conference on World wide web, 2011
Recently, a number of algorithms have been proposed to obtain hierarchical structures - so-called folksonomies - from social tagging data. Work on these algorithms is in part driven by a belief that folksonomies are useful for tasks such as: (a) Navigating social tagging systems and (b) Acquiring semantic relationships between tags.

Privacy-Aware Folksonomies

2010
Many popular web sites use folksonomies to let people label objects like images (Flickr), music (Last.fm), or URLs (Delicous) with schema-free tags. Folksonomies may reveal personal information. For example, tags can contain sensitive information, the set of tagged objects might disclose interests, etc.

Evaluation of Folksonomy Induction Algorithms

ACM Transactions on Intelligent Systems and Technology, 2012
Algorithms for constructing hierarchical structures from user-generated metadata have caught the interest of the academic community in recent years. In social tagging systems, the output of these algorithms is usually referred to as folksonomies (from folk-generated taxonomies).

A Methodology for Folksonomy Evaluation

2012
In recent years, the folksonomies were created and maintained in libraries and other information organizations alongside the traditional subject indexing systems. Folksonomies, consisting of tags, often express the "wisdom of the crowd". Despite their weaknesses and unstructured form, they reveal the language of users or even the terminology of the ...
