Automated Tag Clustering: Improving search and exploration in the tag space

, , and . Collaborative Web Tagging Workshop at WWW2006, Edinburgh, Scotland, (2006)

Abstract

In this paper we discuss the use of clustering techniques to enhance the user experience and thus the success of collaborative tagging services. We show that clustering techniques can improve the user experience of current tagging services. We first describe current limitations of tagging services, second, we give an overview of existing approaches. We then describe the algorithms we used for tag clustering and give experimental results. Finally, we explore the use of several techniques to identify semantically related tags.
