Revising Faceted Taxonomies and CTCA Expressions
نویسنده
چکیده
A faceted taxonomy is a set of taxonomies each describing the application domain from a different (preferably orthogonal) point of view. CTCA is an algebra that allows specifying the set of meaningful compound terms (meaningful conjunctions of terms) over a faceted taxonomy in a flexible and efficient manner. However, taxonomy updates may turn a CTCA expression e ill-formed and may turn the compound terms specified by e to no longer reflect the domain knowledge originally expressed in e. This paper shows how we can revise e after a taxonomy update and reach an expression e′ that is both well-formed and whose semantics (compound terms defined) is as close as possible to the semantics of the original expression e before the update.

Updates and Revision in Faceted Taxonomies and CTCA Expressions 1
A faceted taxonomy is a forest of taxonomies each describing the application domain from a different (preferably orthogonal) point of view. CTCA is an algebra that allows specifying the set of meaningful compound terms (meaningful conjunctions of terms) over a faceted taxonomy in a flexible and efficient manner. However, taxonomy updates may turn a CTCA expression e not wellformed and may turn ...
متن کاملMining the Meaningful Compound Terms from Materialized Faceted Taxonomies
A materialized faceted taxonomy is an information source where the objects of interest are indexed according to a faceted taxonomy. This paper shows how from a materialized faceted taxonomy, we can mine an expression of the Compound Term Composition Algebra that specifies exactly those compound terms that have non-empty interpretation. The mined expressions can be used for encoding compactly (a...
متن کاملRapid Induction of Multiple Taxonomies for Enhanced Faceted Text Browsing
In this paper we present and compare two methodologies for rapidly inducing multiple subject-specific taxonomies from crawled data. The first method involves a sentence-level words co-occurrence frequency method for building the taxonomy, while the second involves the bootstrapping of a Word2Vec based algorithm with a directed crawler. We exploit the multilingual open-content directory of the W...
متن کاملExtended Faceted Taxonomies for Web Catalogs
Indexing and retrieval in Web catalogs can benefit from using faceted taxonomies. A faceted taxonomy consists of a set of facets, where each facet consists of a predefined set of terms structured by a subsumption relation. We propose two extensions of faceted taxonomies, which allow inferring conjunctions of terms that are valid in the underlying domain. We give a model-theoretic interpretation...
متن کاملAnalysis and Validation of Information Access Through Mono, Multidimensional and Dynamic Taxonomies
Access to complex information bases through multidimensional, dynamic taxonomies (also improperly known as faceted classifications) is becoming a hot concept both in research and in industry. In this paper, the major shortcomings of conventional, monodimensional taxonomic approaches, such as the independence of different branches of the taxonomy and insufficient scalability, are discussed. The ...
