Quality-protected folksonomy maintenance approaches: a brief survey

More Information
  • Abstract: Folksonomy gives liberty to its users to freely assign chosen keywords as tags, and this is the main reason behind its popularity. Apart from freedom, this system also reflects the collective intelligence of the crowd. However, this freedom and liberty can degrade quality of the folksonomy. It is required that quality of the folksonomy must remain consistently excellent and does not degrade with the passage of time. This is a survey paper, in which we present a brief survey of the research efforts intended to maintain a quality-protected folksonomy. We have organized our paper by looking at the problem from four aspects namely selection of quality tags, tag management features provided by folksonomy applications, folksonomy cleaning and interoperability of tags across platforms. We conclude our review with some of the interesting research topics, which need to be explored further. Our conclusion will be relevant and beneficial for engineers and designers who aim to design and maintain a quality-protected folksonomy.

Quality-protected folksonomy maintenance approaches: a brief survey

The Knowledge Engineering Review  30 2015, 30(5): 521−544  |  Cite this article

Abstract: Abstract: Folksonomy gives liberty to its users to freely assign chosen keywords as tags, and this is the main reason behind its popularity. Apart from freedom, this system also reflects the collective intelligence of the crowd. However, this freedom and liberty can degrade quality of the folksonomy. It is required that quality of the folksonomy must remain consistently excellent and does not degrade with the passage of time. This is a survey paper, in which we present a brief survey of the research efforts intended to maintain a quality-protected folksonomy. We have organized our paper by looking at the problem from four aspects namely selection of quality tags, tag management features provided by folksonomy applications, folksonomy cleaning and interoperability of tags across platforms. We conclude our review with some of the interesting research topics, which need to be explored further. Our conclusion will be relevant and beneficial for engineers and designers who aim to design and maintain a quality-protected folksonomy.
