Introduction to Knowledge Organization by Claudio Gnoli Pdf

This book provides a complete introduction to the rapidly expanding field of Knowledge organization (KO), presenting historical precedents and theoretical foundations in a discursive, intelligible form, covering the philosophical, linguistic and technical aspects. In the contemporary context of global information exchange through linked data, Knowledge organization systems (KOS) need to be represented in standard inter-operable formats. Different formats for KOS representation including MARC, Dublin Core, SKOS and OWL are introduced as well as the application of Knowledge organization to a variety of activities and contexts: education, encyclopedic knowledge, the Internet, libraries, archives, museums, galleries and other institutions collecting and providing access to recorded knowledge. Key coverage includes: • ontology and epistemology in KO • KO structures: lists, hierarchies, facets... • KO types: tagging, taxonomies, thesauri, classifications... • conceptual analysis of documents • applications in the digital age. Covering theoretical and practical aspects of KO and using real-life examples to illustrate its application, this book will be a valuable resource for students, researchers and practitioners of Knowledge organization, information organization, cataloguing and classification.

Subject Access to Information by Koraljka Golub Pdf

Drawing on the research of experts from the fields of computing and library science, this ground-breaking work will show you how to combine two very different approaches to classification to create more effective, user-friendly information-retrieval systems. A much-needed analysis of the intersection of information organization and technology, this interdisciplinary work encompasses both current and potential methods of organizing information by subject. It examines traditional approaches as they are used in the online environment and explores computer science approaches, such as ontologies and automated tools for subject information organization. Entries review the advantages and disadvantages of the two approaches, showcase their applications today, and project what those applications may be in the future. Content ranges from background on the importance of information organization in general to the importance of information organization by subject in particular. Traditional and modern knowledge-organization systems are covered, as are technological standards, selected topics in automated tools, and interdisciplinary research and cooperation. By tackling varied approaches, the work provides you with an appreciation of the tools—and an understanding of common aims.

Knowledge Organisation, Information Processing and Retrieval by Fernand Qunicy Pdf

Literally Knowledge Organisation is the organisation of knowledge. This organisation is made in order to facilitate the use of documents or recorded knowledge (or other units). Information or knowledge management is essentially a four-step process that includes capturing, organising, refining and disseminating information. The process begins with the capturing of information relevant to the activities and interests of people in an organisation. Such information may be available in a variety of sources, forms and formats. Once information is captured, it needs to be organised using a number of techniques that include cataloguing and indexing, retrieving, filtering, ranking, and so on. Efficiency of an information access system depends largely on the proper organisation of information. Information processing is the acquisition, recording, organisation, retrieval, display, and dissemination of information. Over the years, information science researchers and practitioners have developed and used various techniques for organising information resources of different types. However, off late, with the introduction of information and communication technologies several sophisticated systems have been developed for organisation of information. Libraries and information services have a long history of using various tools for organising information resources. Knowledge Organisation, Information Processing and Retrieval focuses on the various bibliographic and information retrieval tools and techniques used for information organisation, a key activity in a knowledge management process. The book begins with the existing debate on the very concept of knowledge management, and looks at some recent papers and arguments on this issue. It then briefly discusses how some projects over the past decade or so have used various traditional bibliographic organisation tools for providing access to electronic resources.

Information and Knowledge Organisation in Digital Humanities by Koraljka Golub,Ying-Hsang Liu Pdf

Information and Knowledge Organisation explores the role of knowledge organisation in the digital humanities. By focusing on how information is described, represented and organised in both research and practice, this work furthers the transdisciplinary nature of digital humanities. Including contributions from Asia, Australia, Europe, North America and the Middle East, the volume explores the potential uses of, and challenges involved in, applying the organisation of information and knowledge in the various areas of Digital Humanities. With a particular focus on the digital worlds of cultural heritage collections, the book also includes chapters that focus on machine learning, knowledge graphs, text analysis, text annotations and network analysis. Other topics covered include: semantic technologies, conceptual schemas and data augmentation, digital scholarly editing, metadata creation, browsing, visualisation and relevance ranking. Most importantly, perhaps, the book provides a starting point for discussions about the impact of information and knowledge organisation and related tools on the methodologies used in the Digital Humanities field. Information and Knowledge Organisation is intended for use by researchers, students and professionals interested in the role information and knowledge organisation plays in the Digital Humanities. It will be essential reading for those working in library and information science, computer science and across the humanities.
