Abstract

The development of an ontology for information control is proposed to manage visual images of and references to individuals in information management systems of television channels. Research has established precedents for the use of ontologies in the audiovisual field, providing a baseline for measuring and understanding ongoing developments. This practical approach offers a quick, straightforward solution to onomastic control in information retrieval, permitting control and development of relationships between individuals covered in the media. This creates a network of television personalities we can draw upon to improve the outcomes of retrieval processes.
