Abstract

Looking to reduce the problem of knowledge acquisition bottleneck, this work takes on the hypothesis that the folksonomy induced from collaborative tagging data on the Web, based on parameters of authorship and motivation of categorization, can represent a shared conceptualization of a domain. Thus, it is expected that the use of such data can generate a reduction of divergences in the elicitation of terms that will be part of the conceptual model when compared with folksonomy induction algorithms that do not use these parameters.

Keywords: Conceptual Models, Knowledge Acquisition, Collaborative Tagging Systems, Folksonomies.
