Baozhen Li, Qinghua Zhu · 2008

It is the social tagging that users tag the networked information resources from bottom to up.

We try to use the self-organizing characteristics of SOM neural networks to classify the popular tags in "Del.icio.us" website, to determine the tags semantic dimension in social tagging system, and to provide semantics references for information users to use tags.
