Keywords:
Movie genres, Film classification, Ontology, Taxonomy, Media studies, Content analysisAbstract
This research explores the complexities of movie genre classification and the development of a comprehensive movie genre thesaurus. By analyzing various classification systems and their hierarchical structures, we aim to provide insights into the nuances of genre categorization in the film industry. The study employs a mixed-method approach, combining qualitative analysis of existing genre taxonomies with quantitative assessment of genre relationships and properties. Our findings reveal the multifaceted nature of genre classification and propose a more robust framework for understanding and categorizing films across different genres.
