| Abstract(in English) | This paper focuses on social bookmarks (or social tags) and investigates the their utility for information retrieval (IR). Our main research question asked in the present work is "How are social tags compared with conventional, yet reliable manual indexing from the viewpoint of IR performance?". To answer the question, we look at the biomedical literature and begin with examining basic statistics of social tags from CiteULike in comparison with Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) annotated in the Medline bibliographic database. Then, using the data, we conduct various experiments in IR settings, which reveal that retrieval performance can be improved by using social tags as additional indices and that the quality of social tags can be measured by the number of CiteULike users who use the same tags. |
