Category theory provides a mathematical foundation for faceted browsing, enabling interoperable and reusable interfaces. This approach abstracts the interactive process, moving beyond current implementations to a theoretical specification.

Area of Science:

  • Information Science
  • Computer Science
  • Theoretical Computer Science

Background:

  • Faceted browsing is widely used in digital libraries and search engines.
  • Current models struggle to support interoperable and reusable interfaces.
  • Existing facet modeling relies on set theory, formal concept analysis, and ontologies, often serving as implementations rather than theoretical specifications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose category theory as a theoretical foundation for faceted browsing.
  • To demonstrate the mathematical abstraction of the faceted browsing interactive process.
  • To provide a specification of the underlying structures and interactions in faceted browsing systems.

Main Methods:

  • Applying category theory to model faceted browsing systems.
Keywords:
