The document discusses topic maps and their role in organizing information. It provides an overview of topic maps, describing them as a standard for merging indexes and describing structured relationships between names, occurrences, and associations. It also discusses challenges with semantic web technologies, such as complexity, lack of tools and skills, and lack of agreement. However, it argues that topic maps have value and work in limited, niche applications, despite their limited adoption overall.

In order to cope with large-scale topic maps that store a lot of information, it is necessary to utilize topic map databases. Although, database management systems should provide users with external schema functions such as views, topic map databases do not have such functions. In this paper, we propose a method of implementing a view function, by focusing on the fact that the substructure of topic maps can be regarded as a topic map. In order to realize the idea, we developed an access control system based on the view function. Through an experiment to measure the execution time, we confirmed that these functions work correctly and have little effect on the execution time.

When developing topic maps and their applications, key challenges are how to pick up the main subjects in targeted domains and how to systematize those subjects. This paper introduces a topic map development about topic map case examples. It also introduces what kinds of subjects were extracted and how the identifiers of those subjects were given and how those subjects were classified in the first version. Then the difficulties which were emerged during the development are discussed. In order to promote sharing of the case examples and make good use of them, I provide some consideration and future works.
Topic Maps Web Service: Case Examples and General Structuretmra
We implemented Topic Maps besed web applications which use the Topic Maps web service. We are publishing the applications on the internet. By using the service, according to identified subjects the web applications can get richer information from other topic map web applications easily and effectively. In this paper, we describe usable components for the service. We report the case examples of topic map web applications and Topic Maps web services which we implemented. They use the PSIs to identify subjects among applications. They also use TMRAP (Topic Maps Remote Access Protocol) which is a Web API to exchange Topic Maps fragment. We also consider the general structure of Topic Maps web service.

Have you ever wondered how search works while visiting an e-commerce site, internal website, or searching through other types of online resources? Look no further than this informative session on the ways that taxonomies help end-users navigate the internet! Hear from taxonomists and other information professionals who have first-hand experience creating and working with taxonomies that aid in navigation, search, and discovery across a range of disciplines.
Making AI Behave: Using Knowledge Domains to Produce Useful, Trustworthy ResultsAccess Innovations, Inc.
In today's highly charged atmosphere of anxiety and anticipation about AI, and especially LLMs,
one of the biggest concerns is how to ensure that it returns accurate results (meaning both true
and pertinent to its audience). This is particularly important to scholarly, scientific, and other
technical organizations, whose constituents are often in very specific domains, such as
medicine, engineering, history, biology, chemistry, etc. One extremely useful tool to incorporate in an AI-based process in such cases is a comprehensive and well-structured knowledge domain which is based on a controlled vocabulary.

How a Good Taxonomy Can Provide Valuable Business Insights
Kristen Monahan, Public Library of Science (PLOS)
Kristen is a business analyst and she won’t be talking about the PLOS taxonomy but rather how she uses that taxonomy to drill down into the massive amount of content, metadata, and usage and process data that is PLOS for deep, detailed analysis and to drive business decisions. Much of this work involves trend analysis. For example, trend analysis of submissions can look at the time it takes from submission to decision by subject (narrow subjects like Covid, broad subjects like biotechnology), or by institution, or by country, etc. to see not just the overall big picture but where in their submission and peer review workflows the bottlenecks might be. A trend analysis of topics over time can prompt them to issue a call for papers for a topic they think needs to be better covered–and then look at both short-term and long-term trends resulting from that call to papers. Their taxonomy doesn’t just make their content smarter–it makes how they publish that content smarter too.

Getting to the Point: Using AI and Taxonomies to Craft Meta -Titles
Travis Hicks, American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO)
Looking to better leverage SEO and include key terms in the url construct for research abstracts, ASCO is working with Access Innovations to evaluate how to programmatically create short titles for abstracts. The idea is to index titles against existing taxonomies as a way of producing a short title that succinctly identified what an abstract is about for purposes of constructing a new url configuration. Travis will discuss the need, challenges, and early results of the project.
Expanding the Use of MAIstro at ASCE

Lessons Learned From Building a Taxonomy and Indexing 140 Years of Content
Michael Darr, Project Manager, D33 – American Chemical Society Pubs IT
Michael will talk about the things they would do differently if they were to build a new taxonomy and index a legacy file, and the things they did right the first time.
Bill’s talk is entitled “WHAT’S IN A NAME? How Kew helps drug regulators disambiguate the messy welter of medicinal plant names to shore up regulation and save lives”. It’s really eye-opening to realize how complicated and imprecise names can get, with multiple scientific, pharmaceutical and popular names for the same thing or with one name used for completely different things.
This has real-world consequences. For example, the EU mistakenly banned a useful plant we use every day when intending to ban a poisonous one because of a naming problem. How Kew is using semantic and taxonomic tools and technologies to bring order to this complexity (I almost said chaos) is really fascinating. They’re also helping to disambiguate nomenclature and provide links to authoritative information for botanical terms for use in journal articles, among other things.
