Paper Abstract
"Social media is nowadays an excellent platform for gathering user intelligence for supporting business intelligence applications. Social tagging system (aka. folksonomy) is a critical mechanism for collaboratively creating, organizing and managing the wisdom of crowds. The knowledge gained from social tagging system should be tremendous assets for conducting and improving various business intelligent applications. Consequently, the purpose of this study is to examine the values of folksonomy on an important business intelligent task, namely personalized document management. Specifically, we employ Delicious, a pioneered social bookmarking service, to construct a statistical-based thesaurus which is then applied to support personalized document clustering. According to our empirical evaluation results, social tagging system indeed improve the quality of the statistical-based thesaurus in comparison with that constructed on the basis of a general-purpose search engine in generating personalized document clusters."
