That division of the natural sciences which treats of the classification of animals and plants, primarily by consideration of their natural relationships with respect to their structure or genetic origin; the laws or principles of classification; systematics.
A systematic arrangement of objects or concepts showing the relations between them, especially one including a hierarchical arrangement of types in which categories of objects are classified as subtypes of more abstract categories, starting from one or a small number of top categories, and descending to more specific types through an arbitrary number of levels. An ontology usually contains a taxonomy as one of the important principles of organization.
the science of classifying all living things by arranging them in groups according to the relationship of each to the others.

A taxonomy is the study of the general principles of scientific classification. Information architects use this word to refer to labeling systems and nomenclature of things like the sections of a website. A taxonomy is a collection of controlled vocabulary terms organized into a hierarchical structure. The word taxonomy is from Greek 'taxis' means the arrangement or division and 'nomos' meaning law. A good taxonomy takes into account the importance of separating elements of a group (taxon) into subgroups (taxa) that are mutually exclusive, unambiguous, and taken together, include all possibilities. In practice, a good taxonomy should be simple, easy to remember, and easy to use.
orderly classification of plants and animals according to their presumed natural relationships.
the organization of categories and subcategories for a set of data. For instance, biologists organize
1. the method of classifying things into groups. 2. in biology, the classification of living organisms into taxa.
The area of botany dealing with the classifying and naming of plants.
Species identification
A structure that provides a way of classifying things.
the systematic arrangement of the animal (or plant) world in a natural order of evolutionary relationship. It is necessarly closely associated with nomenclature.
(noun) The study or system of classification, particularly in regards to naming and describing living organisms. For animals the hierarchy runs as kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species.
the classification of organisms into related groups in a hierarchical manner.
Taxonomy defines relationships between terms through classification by a predefined system by the separation of elements into groups or subgroups, or a conceptual framework. Last Reviewed: 2002-07-07
A system of grouping organisms by their similarities. Taxonomic levels, from largest grouping (Kingdom) to smallest (Species): Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species For example a Rock Pigeon (city pigeon) is: Kingdom Animalia (all animals) Phylum Chordata (includes birds, mammals, reptiles, fish, sea squirts) Class Aves (includes all birds) Order Columbiformes (includes doves, pigeons, dodos, and solitaires) Family Columbidae (includes all doves and pigeons) Genus Columba (includes some pigeons and doves) Species livia (Rock Pigeon only)
This is not a mathematical term in this context. By taxonomy we mean the classification of the tilings with respect to the following main categories
Fitting organisms into an organizing scheme is referred to as taxonomy. Biologists use the Linnean scheme for giving names to species.
A Data Taxonomy is a hierarchical structure that separates data into specific classes of data based on common characteristics. The taxonomy represents a convenient way to classify data to prove that it is unique and without redundancy. This includes both primary and generated data elements. (Also see Domain).
The classification of living organisms into groups based on similarities and relationships.
The study of biological classification.
(32NS) A tree-like hierarchical structure of information. Taxonomies are often used by Internet portals (such as Yahoo!), online catalogs, and Web stores to categorize information and to offer consistent navigation. Taxonomical hierarchies provide an ordered connection between each item in the strucuture and the item or items below it. (329P)
The arrangement and classification of animals into similar groups.
Classification or division into ordered groups or categories, as in a taxonomy of educational objectives. See also Bloom's taxonomy
A classification or ordering into groups.
The organization of all organisms into categories to better describe them
the naming of living beings based on their evolutionary relationships to one another
the study of the classification of living organisms, including rules and systems of naming organisms
The study and classification of the relationships among different forms of life.
the classification of organisms to show relationships to other organisms.
n. (Gr. taxis, arrangement; nomos, law) a science that includes identification, nomenclature, and classification of objects, and is usually restricted to objects of biological origin; orderly classification of plants according to their presumed natural relationships forming a basic biological discipline involving during its Linnean period the firm establishment of binomial nomenclature and acceptance of the static concept of fixity of the species, during its Darwinion period the dynamic concept of speciation by natural selection, and during its modern Mendelian epoch an expansion to include study of the mechanisms underlying speciation and related processes.
the study of the relationship of different species
Taxonomy is the classification of organisms according to their evolutionary relationship. Taxonomic groups are organized in a hierarchical fashion from the most inclusive domains of life (archaea, bacteria, eukarya, viridae) to the lowest most specific species description (e.g. Homo sapiens).
Taxonomie Taxonomie, f TaxonomÃa The classification of organisms based on genetic similarities.
Gk. taxis, arrange, put in order + nomos, law] The branch of biology concerned with naming and classifying the diverse forms of life.
The science of classification and naming of species.
classification of organisms into groups on the basis of similarities
The art of classifing all living organisms into a kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species.
This is the scientific discipline of naming organisms. It was started by Carolus Linné (Carl Linneaus), perhaps the most famous taxonomist. Taxonomy is one of the three branches of Systematics.
The scientific process of classifying living things. Used in biometrics to classify user types. _____________________________________________________________________________
the theoretical basis for classifying organisms.
A system of categories for the resources in a Compass system. For a full description of taxonomies, see Understanding Categories.
In the context of a catalog, A taxonomy can be defined as a practice of classifying items and products based on a presumed criteria such as product similarities. Item/Product Taxonomy can be within Apsiva ONEsource.
A system of classification for living organisms.
Hierarchical classification of items e.g. Chapter, Page, Section.
