Using controlled vocabularies to manage resource relationships: The KMODDL experience
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Kinematic Models for Design Digital Library (KMODDL) exemplifies digital collections in which groups of objects are versions of the same resource and which resources are related to one another taxonomically. Other objects in the collection are supplementary materials that explicitly cite the primary KMODDL resources. To manage the complex relationships among KMODDL objects while maintaining the DC oneto-one principle, metadata developers established controlled vocabulary encoding schemes that linked related objects. The solution implemented enables users to find all versions of a resource and all supplementary materials that cite the resource in a single search.

The purpose is review the literature to identify the epistemological and theoretical approach to the folksonomies and compare them with the theoretical foundations of controlled vocabularies. This paper is a library research. A review of the literature, identify and review theoretical approaches related to the folksonomies includes Critical social theory, Social constructivism, Relativism, Derr...
متن کاملRDA Element Sets and RDA Value Vocabularies: Vocabularies for Resource Description in the Semantic Web
Considering the need for metadata standards suitable for the Semantic Web, this paper describes the RDA Element Sets and the RDA Value Vocabularies that were created from attributes and relationships defined in Resource Description and Access (RDA). First, we present the vocabularies included in RDA Element Sets: the vocabularies of classes, of properties and of properties unconstrained by FRBR...
متن کاملIntegrating Hierarchical Controlled Vocabularies With OWL Ontology: A Case Study from the Domain of Molecular Interactions
Many efforts at standardising terminologies within the biological domain have resulted in the construction of hierarchical controlled vocabularies that capture domain knowledge. Vocabularies, such as the PSI-MI vocabulary, capture both deep and extensive domain knowledge, in the OBO (Open Biomedical Ontologies) format. However hierarchical vocabularies, such as PSI-MI which are represented in O...
متن کاملBetter living through ontologies at the Immune Epitope Database
The Immune Epitope Database (IEDB) project incorporates independently developed ontologies and controlled vocabularies into its curation and search interface. This simplifies curation practices, improves the user query experience and facilitates interoperability between the IEDB and other resources. While the use of independently developed ontologies has long been recommended as a best practice...
متن کاملEstablishing the Value of Socially Created Metadata to Image Indexing
There have been ample suggestions in the literature that terms added to documents from Flickr and Wikipedia can complement traditional methods of indexing and controlled vocabularies. At the same time, adding new metadata to existing metadata objects may not always add value to those objects. This research examines the potential added value of using user-contributed (“social”) terms from Flickr...
