Personalized Faceted Navigation in the Semantic Web
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents the prototype of an adaptive faceted semantic browser – Factic. Factic implements our novel method of navigation in open information spaces represented by ontologies based on an enhanced faceted browser with support for dynamic facet generation and adaptation based on user characteristics. It is developed as part of a modular framework that supports personalization based on an automatically acquired ontological user model. We describe software tool design and implementation together with discussion on several problems mostly related to the general immaturity of current Semantic Web solutions.

Personalized Faceted Navigation in Semantically Enriched Information Spaces
Existing information retrieval systems provide users with limited support for efficient navigation in large semantically enriched information spaces. Several possible solutions were proposed, such as using faceted metadata search or semantic clusters of search results. We explore the possibilities of using enhanced faceted navigation with support for personalization, collaboration and Semantic ...
متن کاملPersonalized Faceted Browsing for Digital Libraries
Current digital libraries and online bibliographies share several properties with the Web and thus also share some of its problems. Faceted classifications and Semantic Web technologies are explored as possible approaches to improving digital libraries and alleviating their respective shortcomings. We describe the possibilities of using faceted navigation and its personalization in digital libr...
متن کاملPersonalized Navigation in the Semantic Web
Effective navigation and information retrieval is difficult and time consuming due to the increasing size of hyperspace. The introduction of the semantic web allows us to enhance traditional search methods with semantic search capabilities that take advantage of machine readable semantic information ideally stored in an ontology. Nevertheless issues concerning the user-friendly construction of ...
متن کاملFactic: Personalized Exploratory Search in the Semantic Web
Effective access to information on the Web requires constant improvement in existing search, navigation and visualization approaches due to the size, complexity and dynamic nature of the web information space. We combine and extend personalization approaches, faceted browsers, graph-based visualization and tree-based history visualization in order to provide users with advanced information expl...
متن کاملReconciling faceted search and query languages for the Semantic Web
Faceted search and querying are two well-known paradigms to search the Semantic Web. Querying languages, such as SPARQL, offer expressive means for searching RDF datasets, but they are difficult to use. Query assistants help users to write well-formed queries, but they do not prevent empty results. Faceted search supports exploratory search, i.e., guided navigation that returns rich feedbacks t...
