A key question for harvesting semantics from these systems is how to extend and adapt traditional notions of similarity to folksonomies, and which measures are best suited for applications such as navigation support, semantic search, and ontology learning. Here we build an evaluation framework to compare various general folksonomy-based similarity measures derived from established information-theoretic, statistical, and practical measures. Our framework deals generally and symmetrically with users, tags, and resources. For evaluation purposes we focus on similarity among tags and resources, considering different ways to aggregate annotations across users. After comparing how tag similarity measures predict user-created tag relations, we provide an external grounding by user-validated semantic proxies based on WordNet and the Open Directory. We also investigate the issue of scalability. We ?nd that mutual information with distributional micro-aggregation across users yields the highest accuracy, but is not scalable; per-user projection with collaborative aggregation provides the best scalable approach via incremental computations. The results are consistent across resource and tag similarity.}, author = {Markines, Benjamin and Cattuto, Ciro and Menczer, Filippo and Benz, Dominik and Hotho, Andreas and Stumme, Gerd}, booktitle = {18th International World Wide Web Conference}, interhash = {a266558ad4d83d536a0be2ac94b6b7df}, intrahash = {d16e752a8295d5dad7e26b199d9f614f}, month = {April}, pages = {641--650}, title = {Evaluating Similarity Measures for Emergent Semantics of Social Tagging}, url = {http://www2009.eprints.org/65/}, year = 2009 } @inproceedings{hoser2006semantic, abstract = {A key argument for modeling knowledge in ontologies is the easy re-use and re-engineering of the knowledge. However, beside consistency checking, current ontology engineering tools provide only basic functionalities for analyzing ontologies. Since ontologies can be considered as (labeled, directed) graphs, graph analysis techniques are a suitable answer for this need. Graph analysis has been performed by sociologists for over 60 years, and resulted in the vivid research area of Social Network Analysis (SNA). While social network structures in general currently receive high attention in the Semantic Web community, there are only very few SNA applications up to now, and virtually none for analyzing the structure of ontologies. We illustrate in this paper the benefits of applying SNA to ontologies and the Semantic Web, and discuss which research topics arise on the edge between the two areas. In particular, we discuss how different notions of centrality describe the core content and structure of an ontology. From the rather simple notion of degree centrality over betweenness centrality to the more complex eigenvector centrality based on Hermitian matrices, we illustrate the insights these measures provide on two ontologies, which are different in purpose, scope, and size.}, address = {Heidelberg}, author = {Hoser, Bettina and Hotho, Andreas and Jäschke, Robert and Schmitz, Christoph and Stumme, Gerd}, booktitle = {The Semantic Web: Research and Applications}, editor = {Sure, York and Domingue, John}, interhash = {344ec3b4ee8af1a2c6b86efc14917fa9}, intrahash = {c0cdbeab23ce0fc1bff5e02c99aab012}, month = {June}, pages = {514-529}, publisher = {Springer}, series = {LNAI}, title = {Semantic Network Analysis of Ontologies}, url = {http://www.kde.cs.uni-kassel.de/stumme/papers/2006/hoser2006semantic.pdf}, volume = 4011, year = 2006 } @proceedings{stumme05semanticnetworkanalysis, address = {Aachen}, editor = {Stumme, Gerd and Hoser, Bettina and Schmitz, Christoph and Alani, Harith}, interhash = {6316cb226778a6a6f156821f975b2ba3}, intrahash = {c44763991d44182c53606a2c93054f26}, issn = {1613-0073}, publisher = {CEUR Proceedings}, title = {Proceedings of the First Workshop on Semantic Network Analysis }, url = {http://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/Publications/CEUR-WS/Vol-171/}, year = 2005 } @inproceedings{schmitz07network, address = {Banff}, author = {Schmitz, Christoph and Grahl, Miranda and Hotho, Andreas and Stumme, Gerd and Catutto, Ciro and Baldassarri, Andrea and Loreto, Vittorio and Servedio, Vito D.
