Nearly-Automated Metadata Hierarchy Creation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Currently, information architects create metadata category hierarchies manually. We present a nearly-automated approach for deriving such hierarchies, by converting the lexical hierarchy WordNet into a format that reflects the contents of a target information collection. We use the term “nearly-automated” because an information architect should have to make only small adjustments to produce an acceptable metadata structure. We contrast the results with an algorithm that uses lexical co-occurrence statistics.

متن کاملOn the Automated Classification of Web Sites
In this paper we discuss several issues related to automated text classification of web sites. We analyze the nature of web content and metadata in relation to requirements for text features. We find that HTML metatags are a good source of text features, but are not in wide use despite their role in search engine rankings. We present an approach for targeted spidering including metadata extract...

متن کاملTowards Quantifying Limits of Automated Curation of Geospatial Data
Workflow systems are an increasingly popular eScience tool for executing complex sequences of tasks. The large volumes of data created during the course of these computationally intense and datadriven scientific investigations drives research in techniques to automate metadata capture to relieve the burden on the user of manual annotation. In this paper we describe our experience to date in qua...
