1、第二讲 信息组织方法论,刘炜 ,第五章 主题法,主题法,直接以表示文献主题的语词作标识，提供字顺检索途径，并主要采用参照系统结石词间关系的标引和检索文献的方法。其中的语词可以是自然语言，也可以是受控语言。 （p.114）,主题法的特点,揭示文献的内容属性 以自然语言为基础（不用标记制度） 直接以局部（语词）指代文献 以特性检索为主，族性检索通过词间的关联达到 以明确性的检索为主，模糊检索通过技术的手段达到,主题法的类型,标题法（Subject Heading） 用规范化的自然语言语词作标题，直接表达文献主题概念，按照标题字顺排列，并用参照系统（已借鉴叙词表的参照关系：用代属分参）显示标题之间关

2、系。 最早产生（1876年克特出版字典式目录规则） 标题含义明确、易于使用 标题列举、先组式，概念表达能力有限，难以多向成族，检索途径少，标识的通用性差（由于采用自然语言？）,单元词法Uniterm 又称元词法，以取自自然语言、经过规范化处理的语词作标识，通过子面组配表达主题。 最基本的、概念上不可再分解的词，表示文献主题 克服标题不足 后组式，易轮排（每个词）索引，灵活 20世纪50年代用于穿孔卡系统（最早的机检系统） 字面分拆，语义准确性差 词间缺乏联系，缺乏参照系统,主题法的类型,主题法的类型,叙词法，又称主题词法Thesaurus 以规范化的自然语言语词作为文献主题的标识，通过叙词的概

3、念组配表达主题概念。 20世纪50年代末提出。吸取了元词法、标题法以及分面组配分类法的优点而发展起来 能够多向成族、多检索途径、多因素组配、灵活扩检/缩检/改变检索范围 灵活性、专指度、可扩展性俱佳,主题法的类型,关键词法（又称自由词） 直接以文献中能够表达主题概念的关键词作为标识。来自于计算机自动抽词 关键词：出现在文献的题名、文摘、正文中，能够表达文献主题，具有检索意义的语词。 自然语词，不做规范化处理（不受控） 无词间关系，但编制禁用词表 现在计算机也能结合一定的受控功能，以提高检索的准确性,叙词法的综合性,与元词法和标题法一样采用自然语言，但规范控制严格，保证标识与概念的唯一对应； 适

4、当采用标题法的预先组配，而不是元词法尽可能细分，以表达组合、专有概念，减少组配误差； 借鉴分面组配分类法，采用概念组配而不是字面组配； 完善了标题法的参照系统； 采用体系分类法的叙词分类索引和等级索引（词族索引），甚至直接引入体系分类表或分面分类表，实现分类主题一体化； 采用关键词法的轮排方法，编制叙词轮排索引,主题法的功能,对信息内容进行标引的功能（指代用以检索）； 对主题内容及其相关信息予以集中或揭示相关性的功能； 对大量信息加以系统化或组织化的功能； 便于将标引用语与检索用语进行相符性比较的功能,叙词表,叙词表是词汇控制(vocabulary control)的工具之一。 叙词表是索引用

5、语及检索词汇的authority list。 叙词表是由已知的概念查得代表该概念的适当用语。concept term 叙词表透过标准化词汇的选用，使同一概念产生类聚(grouping)的作用。,汉语主题词表,1975 年，中国情报所、北京图书馆、国防科工委情报所、电子科技情报所、六二八所、机械科技情报所等单位组建全国1048个单位、7519人参加的汉语主题词 表研究编辑工作，是全国汉学信息处理系统工程（简称748工程）的组成部分，目的是建立全国统一的联机情报检索网络。该主题词表是中国第一部大型综合性 检索工具书，全书包括主表、附表、词族索引、范畴表、英汉对照索引等、共分3卷10个分册。其收词范

Luhn最早以Thesaurus代表主題索引用语词典（简称叙词表），并以之为词汇控制的工具。（一說Brownson于1957正式使用叙词表一詞）,叙词表的简要历史,1959年杜邦公司的工程信息中心开发了首个实用的序词表 1960 the Armed Services Technical Information Agency (ASTIA)
