Book Data Fusion in Information Retrieval

Download or read book Data Fusion in Information Retrieval written by Shengli Wu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-04-05 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The technique of data fusion has been used extensively in information retrieval due to the complexity and diversity of tasks involved such as web and social networks, legal, enterprise, and many others. This book presents both a theoretical and empirical approach to data fusion. Several typical data fusion algorithms are discussed, analyzed and evaluated. A reader will find answers to the following questions, among others: What are the key factors that affect the performance of data fusion algorithms significantly? What conditions are favorable to data fusion algorithms? CombSum and CombMNZ, which one is better? and why? What is the rationale of using the linear combination method? How can the best fusion option be found under any given circumstances?

Book Advances in Information Retrieval

Download or read book Advances in Information Retrieval written by W. Bruce Croft and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-04-11 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Center for Intelligent Information Retrieval (CIIR) was formed in the Computer Science Department ofthe University ofMassachusetts, Amherst in 1992. The core support for the Center came from a National Science Foun- tion State/Industry/University Cooperative Research Center(S/IUCRC) grant, although there had been a sizeable information retrieval (IR) research group for over 10 years prior to that grant. Thebasic goal ofthese Centers is to combine basic research, applied research, and technology transfer. The CIIR has been successful in each of these areas, in that it has produced over 270 research papers, has been involved in many successful government and industry collaborations, and has had a significant role in high-visibility Internet sites and start-ups. As a result of these efforts, the CIIR has become known internationally as one of the leading research groups in the area of information retrieval. The CIIR focuses on research that results in more effective and efficient access and discovery in large, heterogeneous, distributed, text and multimedia databases. The scope of the work that is done in the CIIR is broad and goes significantly beyond “traditional” areas of information retrieval such as retrieval models, cross-lingual search, and automatic query expansion. The research includes both low-level systems issues such as the design of protocols and architectures for distributed search, as well as more human-centered topics such as user interface design, visualization and data mining with text, and multimedia retrieval.

Book Web based Support Systems

Download or read book Web based Support Systems written by JingTao Yao and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emerging interdisciplinary study of Web-based support systems focuses on the theories, technologies and tools for the design and implementation of Web-based systems that support various human activities. This book presents the state-of-the-art in Web-based support systems (WSS). The research on WSS is multidisciplinary and focuses on supporting various human activities in different domains/fields based on computer science, information technology, and Web technology. The main goal is to take the opportunities of the Web, to meet the challenges of the Web, to extend the human physical limitations of information processing, and to keep up with the advance of technology advances. This book discusses the four types of existing research: WSS for specific domains, Web-based applications, techniques related to WSS and design, and development of WSS. This comprehensive, wide-ranging text will provide an invaluable insight into the state of the art in WSS for researchers and graduate students.

Book Distributed Multimedia Information Retrieval

Download or read book Distributed Multimedia Information Retrieval written by Jamie Callan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-05-02 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During recent years, huge efforts have been made to establish digital libraries, in a variety of media, offered from a variety of sources, and intended for a variety of professional and private user communities. As digital data collections proliferate, problems of resource selection and data fusion become major issues. Traditional search engines, even the best ones, are unable to provide access to the hidden web of information that is only available via digital library search interfaces. Originating from the SIGIR 2003 Workshop on Distributed Information Retrieval, held in Toronto, Canada in August 2003, this book presents extended and revised workshop papers as well as several invited papers on the topic to round off coverage of the core issues. The papers are devoted to recent research on the design and implementation of methods and tools for resource discovery, resource description, resource selection, data fusion, and user interaction.

Book Evaluation of Cross Language Information Retrieval Systems

Download or read book Evaluation of Cross Language Information Retrieval Systems written by Martin Braschler and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-08-02 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second evaluation campaign of the Cross Language Evaluation Forum (CLEF) for European languages was held from January to September 2001. This campaign proved a great success, and showed an increase in participation of around 70% com pared with CLEF 2000. It culminated in a two day workshop in Darmstadt, Germany, 3–4 September, in conjunction with the 5th European Conference on Digital Libraries (ECDL 2001). On the first day of the workshop, the results of the CLEF 2001 evalua tion campaign were reported and discussed in paper and poster sessions. The second day focused on the current needs of cross language systems and how evaluation cam paigns in the future can best be designed to stimulate progress. The workshop was attended by nearly 50 researchers and system developers from both academia and in dustry. It provided an important opportunity for researchers working in the same area to get together and exchange ideas and experiences. Copies of all the presentations are available on the CLEF web site at http://www. clef campaign. org. This volume con tains thoroughly revised and expanded versions of the papers presented at the work shop and provides an exhaustive record of the CLEF 2001 campaign. CLEF 2001 was conducted as an activity of the DELOS Network of Excellence for Digital Libraries, funded by the EC Information Society Technologies program to further research in digital library technologies. The activity was organized in collabo ration with the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
