Taxonomy descriptors become subject metadata • Selected descriptors are XML-tagged and stored with document • Descriptors available as webpage metadata • Put in the HTML Header • Metatags enable precise document retrieval • Term equivalence enables query expansion in search (MAIQuery)
Structure of the Corpus • Specific domains • Easier than the whole internet • DLESE – Digital Library for Earth Science Education • Domain specific taxonomy • Specific branches • Dynamic classifications
User Context and Search Task • What about unique interfaces for different tasks? • Culture effects • Embedded search • Search history • Combine search and browse • Providing confidence in search • Help build the query • Predicting the users queries User-Interface Design
Our assumptions forEnterprise Taxonomy Management • Consistent application across entire site • Synonyms are used interchangeably • User doesn’t need to know the taxonomy • Pop up view is helpful • Site map for construction and browsing • Allows hidden sections for internal use
