Browsing and Visualizing Semantically Enriched Information Resources

Csaba Veres, Kristian Johansen, Andreas Lothe Opdahl · 2010

We are developing an approach to organizing bookmarks and other information resources by annotating them with metadata in the form of synsets taken from WordNet. This paper shows how a collection of annotated bookmarks can be semantically enriched by adding hyper-/hyponym relations from WordNet. It then illustrates how the semantically enriched bookmark collection can be browsed and visualized using the Longwell faceted browser. Our initial investigation suggests that the rich semantics of WordNet synsets combined with Longwell's faceted browsing provide users with a useful aid for navigating and comprehending complex annotated information resources.
