@misc{leydesdorff2010semantic, abstract = { Meaning can be generated when information is related at a systemic level.Such a system can be an observer, but also a discourse, for example,operationalized as a set of documents. The measurement of semantics assimilarity in patterns (correlations) and latent variables (factor analysis)has been enhanced by computer techniques and the use of statistics; forexample, in "Latent Semantic Analysis". This communication provides anintroduction, an example, pointers to relevant software, and summarizes thechoices that can be made by the analyst. Visualization ("semantic mapping") isthus made more accessible.}, author = {Leydesdorff, Loet and Welbers, Kasper}, file = {leydesdorff2010semantic.pdf:leydesdorff2010semantic.pdf:PDF}, groups = {public}, interhash = {ae82f513935ffa158395683303d52517}, intrahash = {cee25eef0438b6ac2998041dbd93016e}, note = {cite arxiv:1011.5209}, timestamp = {2010-11-24 10:21:03}, title = {The semantic mapping of words and co-words in contexts}, url = {http://arxiv.org/abs/1011.5209}, username = {dbenz}, year = 2010 } @incollection{springerlink:10.1007/978-3-540-76298-0_79, abstract = {The use of tags to describe Web resources in a collaborative manner has experienced rising popularity among Web users in recent years. The product of such activity is given the name folksonomy, which can be considered as a scheme of organizing information in the users’ own way. This research work attempts to analyze tripartite graphs – graphs involving users, tags and resources – of folksonomies and discuss how these elements acquire their semantics through their associations with other elements, a process we call mutual contextualization. By studying such process, we try to identify solutions to problems such as tag disambiguation, retrieving documents of similar topics and discovering communities of users.
