Semantic lenses as exploration method for scholarly article

In a move towards an enrichment of the metadata models that are used in the electronic publication of scholarly literature, modern publishers are making steps towards semantic publishing. The possibility to explore a collection of scientic papers (a digital library, a repository or an archive of data) using different and multiple facets, increases on the one hand the success of information retrieval and on the other hand the availability of richer data sets. Multiple facets are the natural navigation method made possible by an adequate ontological representation of a class of homogeneous documents. Context and content of published journal articles are thus components that in the representation of information at the metadata level constitute a fundamental approach to semantic enhancement. In this paper we introduced a test in using a particular semantic publishing model, called semantic lenses, to semantically enhance published journal articles.
