In contrast, folksonomies are widely inuse for (1) tagging Web pages (e.g. del.icio.us), (2) annotating pictures (e.g.flickr), or (3) classifying scholarly publications (e.g. bibsonomy). However,such folksonomies cannot offer the expressivity of ontologies, and therespective tags often lack a context-independent and intersubjective definitionof meaning. Also, folksonomies and other unsupervised vocabularies frequentlysuffer from inconsistencies and redundancies. In this paper, we argue that thesocial interaction manifested in folksonomies and in their usage should beexploited for building and maintaining ontologies. Then, we sketch acomprehensive approach for deriving ontologies from folksonomies byintegrating multiple resources and techniques. In detail, we suggest combining(1) the statistical analysis of folksonomies, associated usage data, and theirimplicit social networks, (2) online lexical resources like dictionaries, Wordnet,Google and Wikipedia, (3) ontologies and Semantic Web resources, (4)ontology mapping and matching approaches, and (5) functionality that helpshuman actors in achieving and maintaining consensus over ontology elementsuggestions resulting from the preceding steps.}, author = {Damme, CĂ©line Van and Hepp, Martin and Siorpaes, Katharina}, booktitle = {Bridging the Gep between Semantic Web and Web 2.0 (SemNet 2007)}, file = {damme2007folksontology.pdf:damme2007folksontology.pdf:PDF}, groups = {public}, interhash = {c8d1bcaa606229417f1c3f0f27c5f0e0}, intrahash = {ace5ff38dde26e6c9dbf9db4e31e6546}, pages = {57-70}, timestamp = {2011-02-02 15:25:23}, title = {FolksOntology: An Integrated Approach for Turning Folksonomies into Ontologies}, url = {http://www.kde.cs.uni-kassel.de/ws/eswc2007/proc/FolksOntology.pdf}, username = {dbenz}, year = 2007 } @inproceedings{Van-Damme2007, address = {Innsbruck}, author = {Damme, C{\'e}line Van and Hepp, Martin and Siorpaes, Katharina}, bdsk-file-1 = {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}, bdsk-url-1 = {http://www.kde.cs.uni-kassel.de/ws/eswc2007/proc/ProceedingsSemnet07.pdf}, booktitle = {Bridging the Gap between Semantic Web and Web 2.0 (SemNet 2007)}, date-added = {2009-08-17 11:40:57 +0200}, date-modified = {2010-01-04 09:30:08 +0100}, interhash = {c8d1bcaa606229417f1c3f0f27c5f0e0}, intrahash = {8d57c1e57c7aba60acb767e3d5b0fa13}, pages = {57--70}, title = {FolksOntology: An Integrated Approach for Turning Folksonomies into Ontologies}, url = {http://www.kde.cs.uni-kassel.de/ws/eswc2007/proc/ProceedingsSemnet07.pdf}, urldate = {28.5.2008}, year = 2007 } @inproceedings{Hepp:2006:HWC, abstract = {One major obstacle towards adding machine-readable annotation to existing Web content is the lack of domain ontologies. While FOAF and Dublin Core are popular means for expressing relationships between Web resources and between Web resources and literal values, we widely lack unique identifiers for common concepts and instances. Also, most available ontologies have a very weak community grounding in the sense that they are designed by single individuals or small groups of individuals, while the majority of potential users is not involved in the process of proposing new ontology elements or achieving consensus. This is in sharp contrast to natural language where the evolution of the vocabulary is under the control of the user community. At the same time, we can observe that, within Wiki communities, especially Wikipedia, a large number of users is able to create comprehensive domain representations in the sense of unique, machine-feasible, identifiers and concept definitions which are sufficient for humans to grasp the intension of the concepts. The English version of Wikipedia contains now more than one million entries and thus the same amount of URIs plus a human-readable description. While this collection is on the lower end of ontology expressiveness, it is likely the largest living ontology that is available today. In this paper, we (1) show that standard Wiki technology can be easily used as an ontology development environment for named classes, reducing entry barriers for the participation of users in the creation and maintenance of lightweight ontologies, (2) prove that the URIs of Wikipedia entries are surprisingly reliable identifiers for ontology concepts, and (3) demonstrate the applicability of our approach in a use case.}, author = {Hepp, Martin and Bachlechner, Daniel and Siorpaes, Katharina}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the First Workshop on Semantic Wikis -- From Wiki To Semantics}, crossref = {SemWiki2006-proceedings}, editor = {V\"{o}lkel, Max and Schaffert, Sebastian}, interhash = {640e549f082756c3272467c9df64307e}, intrahash = {d120c5c498e9cec5ce2934537c58978f}, month = {June}, owner = {voelkel}, publisher = {ESWC2006}, series = {Workshop on Semantic Wikis}, timestamp = {2006.06.14}, title = {Harvesting Wiki Consensus - Using Wikipedia Entries as Ontology Elements}, url = {http://semwiki.org/semwiki2006}, year = 2006 }
