Links

Tag links can be used to connect related tags with each other. The connected tags can for example be synonyms, translations, or child and parent in a taxonomy. The exact type of the link does not need to be specified; the Starmind algorithm will automatically determine when a link between two tags is relevant. Tag links are mainly used in the expert search. When insufficient experts can be found using the tags that are explicitly provided with a question, tag links are explored to expand the pool of potential experts for the question.
