Designing a knowledge base for automatic book classification

Abstract

This paper reports on the design of a knowledge base for an automatic classification in the library science field, by using the facet classification principles of colon classification (CC). To do so, by designing and constructing a knowledge base that is able to be classified automatically, and by inputting titles or key words of volumes into the computer, it aims to create class numbers automatically through automatic subject recognition and processing of key words in titles through the facet combination method of CC. Especially, the knowledge base for classification was designed along with the principle of globe and cylinder, automatic classification which can be possible.
