چکیده

This paper presents a visualization interface for DDC-enriched metadata collections. Three sets of metadata from three different digital libraries were aggregated and re-indexed. Automatic analysis was performed to assign one or more DDC classes to each individual metadata record. A comprehensive search and exploratory interface was designed and implemented to include dashboard views, localized views, and universe views of DDC and the metadata collections. Finally, an experiment was conducted to test and compare how subjects interacted with different views for metadata search, exploratory and resource discovery.

Hierarchical Classification of OAI Metadata Using the DDC Taxonomy

In the area of digital library services, the access to subjectspecific metadata of scholarly publications is of utmost interest. One of the most prevalent approaches for metadata exchange is the XML-based Open Archive Initiative (OAI) Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAIPMH). However, due to its loose requirements regarding metadata content there is no strict standard for consistent subject in...

Enhancing document modeling by means of open topic models: Crossing the frontier of classification schemes in digital libraries by example of the DDC

Purpose: We present a topic classification model using the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) as the target scheme. This is done by exploring metadata as provided by the Open Archives Initiative (OAI) to derive document snippets as minimal document representations. The reason is to reduce the effort of document processing in digital libraries. Further, we perform feature selection and extension...

Towards Digital Repository Interoperability: The Document Indexing and Semantic Tagging Interface for Libraries (DISTIL)

The question of how to integrate diverse digital repositories into a unified information infrastructure, accessible and discoverable through simple interfaces, remains a central research issue for digital libraries. Many collections are described by specialized metadata, which currently has to be mapped and crosswalked to a standard format in order to be useful. However, this metadata work can ...
