Abstract

In this paper we present a method for automatically generating collection of topics from Wikipedia/Wikibooks based on user input. The constructed collection is intended to be displayed through an intuitive interface as assistance to the user creating Topic Maps for a given subject. We discuss the motivation behind the developed tool and outline the technique used for crawling and collecting relevant concepts from Wikipedia/Wikibooks and for building the topic structure to be output to the user.
