چکیده

Currently, social bookmarking systems provide intuitive support for browsing locally their content. A global view is usually presented by the tag cloud of the system, but it does not allow a conceptual drill-down, e. g., along a conceptual hierarchy. In this paper, we present a clustering approach for computing such a conceptual hierarchy for a given folksonomy. The hierarchy is complemented with ranked lists of users and resources most related to each cluster. The rankings are computed using our FolkRank algorithm. We have evaluated our approach on large scale data from the del.icio.us bookmarking system.

Discriminative Clustering for Content-Based Tag Recommendation in Social Bookmarking Systems

We describe and evaluate a discriminative clustering approach for content-based tag recommendation in social bookmarking systems. Our approach uses a novel and efficient discriminative clustering method that groups posts based on the textual contents of the posts. The method also generates a ranked list of discriminating terms for each cluster. We apply the clustering method to build two cluste...

Exploring contributions of public resources in social bookmarking systems

Our study examines whether users' contributions of public resources to social bookmarking sites are circumstantial (a side effect of bookmarking for oneself), or motivational (intentional bookmarking for others). We develop a research model based on these two explanations and test it using survey data from users of two bookmarking sites. Our results suggest that public contributions are mainly ...
