A Graphical Interface for Conceptually Navigating Faceted Thesauri
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes a graphical interface for the navigation and construction of faceted thesauri that is based on formal concept analysis. Each facet of a thesaurus is represented as a mathematical lattice that is further subdivided into components. Users can graphically navigate through the Java implementation of the interface by clicking on terms that connect facets and components. Since there are many applications for thesauri in the knowledge representation field, such a graphical interface has the potential of being very useful.

Information Access through Conceptual Structures and GIS
This paper presents a new technique for information access based on a combination of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and conceptual structures as modeled in relational concept analysis. It is based on the idea that traditional relational databases restrict their data types to linearly ordered scales. Since spatial data are not linearly ordered, they cannot be modeled directly in relational...
متن کاملExtending Faceted Navigation for RDF Data
Data on the Semantic Web is semi-structured and does not follow one fixed schema. Faceted browsing [23] is a natural technique for navigating such data, partitioning the information space into orthogonal conceptual dimensions. Current faceted interfaces are manually constructed and have limited query expressiveness. We develop an expressive faceted interface for semi-structured data and formall...
متن کاملThe key role of classification and indexing in view-based searching
The application of classification schemes and thesauri to improve online information retrieval can be traced back to the beginnings of online searching itself, but the true potential for using knowledge structures in the user interface has yet to be realized. View-based searching seeks to exploit the classified arrangements in thesauri and existing classification schemes to improve the performa...
متن کاملA graphical user interaction model for integrating complex clinical applications: a pilot study
We have developed and implemented a multi-faceted, graphical user interaction model for an advanced clinical information system. This paper describes a classification scheme for applications used by clinicians in their daily work, discusses the way clinicians interact with these applications, and the issues that arise during these user interactions. Through its emphasis on support for applicati...
متن کاملMining Data Correlation from Multi-faceted Sensor Data in the Internet of Things
Sensors are ubiquitous in the Internet of Things for measuring and collecting data. Analyzing these data derived from sensors is an essential task and can find the useful latent information besides the data itself. Because the Internet of Things contains sorts of sensors, the measurement data collected by these sensors are multi-type data, sometimes containing temporal series information. If ju...
