Descrição
Resumo:This work evaluates the quality of automatic indexation by attribution of articles published in Brazilian scientific journals of the Information Science area through consistency indices with the manual indexing. It is an exploratory and empirical research. The computational experiment uses the corpus of 60 scientific articles selected by Souza (2005), the descriptors of Brazilian Thesaurus of Information Science (TBCI), and the proposed terms by the Semi-Automatic Indexing System (SISA) for automatic indexing by assignment of the documents. A comparison between SISA terms and authors’ keywords results in an average of 14% for the consistency index, using the relaxed consistency criterion and the General Terms file enabled in the SISA configuration. Without enabling this file, results an average of 19% for the consistency. Thus, we could conclude that automatic indexing by assignment of articles of the corpus has satisfactory performance by consistency index.
