lightweight conceptual structures called folksonomies. Currently,
the information retrieval support is limited. We present a formal
model and a new search algorithm for folksonomies, called
FolkRank, that exploits the structure of the folksonomy. The
proposed algorithm is also applied to find communities within the
folksonomy and is used to structure search results. All findings are
demonstrated on a large scale dataset. A long version of this paper
has been published at the European Semantic Web Conference

The problem becomes moresevere with the increasing fraction of multimedia data, from whichit is difficult to extract some conceptual description of theircontents.One way to overcome this problem are social bookmark tools, whichare rapidly emerging on the web. In such systems, users are settingup lightweight conceptual structures called folksonomies, andovercome thus the knowledge acquisition bottleneck. As more and morepeople participate in the effort, the use of a common vocabularybecomes more and more stable. We present an approach for discoveringtopic-specific trends within folksonomies. It is based on adifferential adaptation of the PageRank algorithm to the triadichypergraph structure of a folksonomy. The approach allows for anykind of data, as it does not rely on the internal structure of thedocuments. In particular, this allows to consider different datatypes in the same analysis step. We run experiments on a large-scalereal-world snapshot of a social bookmarking system.
