Using WordNet to support navigation in a folksonomy
Project short description
This project proposes a new approach to integrate the navigation interface of a folksonomy adding explicit semantics provided by an ontology. A tool has been developed that uses WordNet to build a semantic hierarchy of related tags that helps users find related resources in del.icio.us. In this way it is possible to combine the advantages of the traditional approach to classification with the ones of the collaborative paradigm that is emerging on the Web, dealing with some of the main limitations to which folksonomies are prone.
