Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The connection with external datasets and the modification of the search UI through the game package resources registered in the RCGS Collection, an online catalogue service of the Game Research Centre at Ritsumeikan University, which is being constructed and maintained by the applicants, have been carried out. The connection to external datasets was tested by mechanically connecting the data to Wikipedia, which records at the granular level of works, and effective results were obtained for more than 80% of the titles, The data acquisition from Wikipedia's sister service Wikidata enabled automated data expansion on content aspects such as genres, series and media franchises.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
世界的にも整備が進んでいないデジタルゲームのデータベースを構築する営為の一環として、検索UIの多面的な検証を行い、多様なユーザを対象とするフレンドリーなUIへの改修を模索した。これにより、書誌データのダムダウン・構造簡略化が実現し、多様なユーザがアクセスしやすいサービスが構築できた。また同時にリッチな構造化データについては、シュトゥットガルトメディア大学JVMGプロジェクトの協力でメタデータブラウザを別途実装し、専門家の情報要求に対応するための方向性を定立した。
