共享受控词汇表是协同标注和语义交换的先决条件。然而,这种词汇表的创建和维护既耗时又昂贵。人文科学研究问题的多样性使得创建涵盖广泛潜在应用并满足不同利益攸关方需求的共享受控词汇几乎是不可能的。在这篇文章中,我们提出了一种新的概念性方法来缓解这些问题。我们建议项目根据需要定义自己的词汇表,并将词汇表术语与参考同义词库中的一个或多个概念相链接,以便特定于项目的术语有效地充当一组共享概念的“标签”。我们还描述了该方法在标签系统中的实现。标签系统是一个Web应用程序,它允许用户轻松地导入概念或创建SKOS词汇表,并将词汇表术语链接到一个或多个参考同义词库中的概念。
Shared controlled vocabularies are a prerequisite for collaborative annotation and semantic interchange. The creation and maintenance of such vocabularies is, however, time-consuming and expensive. The diversity of research questions in the humanities makes it virtually impossible to create shared controlled vocabularies that cover a wide range of potential applications and satisfy the needs of diverse stakeholders. In this paper we present a novel conceptual approach for mitigating these problems. We propose that projects define their own vocabularies as needed and link the vocabulary terms to one or more concepts in a reference thesaurus, so that the project-specific term effectively serves as a "label" for a set of shared concepts. We also describe the implementation of this approach in the Labeling System. The Labeling System is a Web application that allows users to easily import concepts or create SKOS vocabularies and link the vocabulary terms to concepts from one or more reference thesauri.
