Managing knowledge takes up a significant role in modern organization and society. Every day, numerous books and publications are released to disseminate new knowledge. In particular, the World Wide Web is an example of a huge unsystematic knowledge base that provides access to a lot of information. Too much information leads to the proliferation of knowledge called “information glut,” which is not easy to handle. Applications to specialize and generalize information gain in importance in the search for solutions to face the new challenges.
