Exploiting semantic web techniques for representing and utilising Folksonomies

Authors Info & Claims
Published:13 June 2010Publication History

ABSTRACT

In this paper, an ontology is proposed to represent hierarchical structure of tags unfolded using the "fast unfolding of communities in large networks" [19] algorithm. This paper also proposes a semantic state of the art application to transform communities of tags computed by this algorithm into a semantic format in light of enhancing search and exploration for Web content.
