ABSTRACT
Searching among the existing 500 and more vocabularies was never easier than today with the Linked Open Vocabularies (LOV) curated directory list. The LOV search provides one central point to explore the vocabulary terms space. However, it can be still cumbersome for non-experts or semantic annotation experts to discover the appropriate terms for the description of given website content. In this direction, the proposed approach is the cornerstone part of a methodology that aims to facilitate the selection of the highest ranked terms from the abundance of the registered vocabularies based on a keyword search. Moreover, it introduces for the first time the role of the contributors' background, which is retrieved from the LOV repository, in the ranking of the vocabularies. With this addition, we aim to address the issue of very low scores for the newly published vocabularies. The paper underlines the difficulty of selecting vocabulary terms through a survey and describes the approach that enables the ranking of vocabularies within the above mentioned methodology.
