Abstract

To maintain consistency of terms in information retrieval process, it is necessary to present the meaning of terms definitely in thesaurus. Therefore, most of thesauri has presented meaning of terms through basic relationships or scope notes. But. thesaurus including standardized definitions in contents and form has been proposed lately. This study was performed to make standardized definitions and extract relationships in contents of defining models. Also, expanded thesaurus was constructed being integrated and replaced standardized definitions and extracted relationships into the existing thesaurus. As the result. this study has shown a possibility for further development of thesaurus.

정보검색과정에서 용어의 일관성을 유지하기 위해, 시소러스에서 용어의 의미를 명확하게 제시하는 것이 필요하다. 이에 대부분 시소러스는 기본관계나 범위주기를 이용하여 용어의 의미를 제시하여 왔으나, 최근 내용과 형식에 있어서 표준화된 정의를 포함하는 시소러스가 제안되어 왔다. 이 연구는 표준화된 정의를 작성함과 동시에 그러한 과정에서 사용한 정의모델의 내용에서 관계를 추출하고, 이들 표준정의와 추출된 관계를 기존의 시소러스에 통합하거나 대체하여 확장된 시소러스를 구축해 봄으로써, 시소러스가 더욱 발전할 수 있는 가능성을 고찰하였다.
