Book Automatic Indexing and Abstracting of Document Texts

Download or read book Automatic Indexing and Abstracting of Document Texts written by Marie-Francine Moens and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-12-27 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Automatic Indexing and Abstracting of Document Texts summarizes the latest techniques of automatic indexing and abstracting, and the results of their application. It also places the techniques in the context of the study of text, manual indexing and abstracting, and the use of the indexing descriptions and abstracts in systems that select documents or information from large collections. Important sections of the book consider the development of new techniques for indexing and abstracting. The techniques involve the following: using text grammars, learning of the themes of the texts including the identification of representative sentences or paragraphs by means of adequate cluster algorithms, and learning of classification patterns of texts. In addition, the book is an attempt to illuminate new avenues for future research. Automatic Indexing and Abstracting of Document Texts is an excellent reference for researchers and professionals working in the field of content management and information retrieval.

Book Automatic Text Summarization

Download or read book Automatic Text Summarization written by Juan-Manuel Torres-Moreno and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-09-25 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Textual information in the form of digital documents quickly accumulates to create huge amounts of data. The majority of these documents are unstructured: it is unrestricted text and has not been organized into traditional databases. Processing documents is therefore a perfunctory task, mostly due to a lack of standards. It has thus become extremely difficult to implement automatic text analysis tasks. Automatic Text Summarization (ATS), by condensing the text while maintaining relevant information, can help to process this ever-increasing, difficult-to-handle, mass of information. This book examines the motivations and different algorithms for ATS. The author presents the recent state of the art before describing the main problems of ATS, as well as the difficulties and solutions provided by the community. The book provides recent advances in ATS, as well as current applications and trends. The approaches are statistical, linguistic and symbolic. Several examples are also included in order to clarify the theoretical concepts.

Book Natural Language Processing for Online Applications

Download or read book Natural Language Processing for Online Applications written by Peter Jackson and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text covers the technologies of document retrieval, information extraction, and text categorization in a way which highlights commonalities in terms of both general principles and practical concerns. It assumes some mathematical background on the part of the reader, but the chapters typically begin with a non-mathematical account of the key issues. Current research topics are covered only to the extent that they are informing current applications; detailed coverage of longer term research and more theoretical treatments should be sought elsewhere. There are many pointers at the ends of the chapters that the reader can follow to explore the literature. However, the book does maintain a strong emphasis on evaluation in every chapter both in terms of methodology and the results of controlled experimentation.

Book Multidimensional Journal Evaluation

Download or read book Multidimensional Journal Evaluation written by Stefanie Haustein and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-04-26 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific communication depends primarily on publishing in journals. The most important indicator to determine the influence of a journal is the Impact Factor. Since this factor only measures the average number of citations per article in a certain time window, it can be argued that it does not reflect the actual value of a periodical. This book defines five dimensions, which build a framework for a multidimensional method of journal evaluation. The author is winner of the Eugene Garfield Doctoral Dissertation Scholarship 2011.

Book Automatic Indexing from Machine Readable Abstracts of Scientific Documents

Download or read book Automatic Indexing from Machine Readable Abstracts of Scientific Documents written by Pranas Zunde and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State-of-the-art of machine indexing is reported. Various proposed machine indexing methods are reviewed and evaluated. Methods for comparing machine and human indexing as well as machine indexing systems among themselves are described. Possible approaches to various problem solutions in machine indexing are indicated. The report describes the design of the Formal Autoindexing of Scientific Texts (FAST) system. Characteristics of Uniterm co- ordinate indexes are investigated and generalizations to scientific indexes made. Laws for the formation of words in the indexing language are derived and verified. The operational principles of the FAST system and test results of various system components are reported. Indexes produced by the FAST method are compared with those produced by human indexers for inter-indexer and intra- indexer consistency. A method of formal evaluation of indexes using the information theory approach is presented and applied to the FAST and conventional indexes. It is concluded that the FAST system can produce Uniterm co-ordinate indexes adequate to user's requirements better and faster than human indexers can do.

  • Pages : 456 pages

Download or read book The Turn written by Peter Ingwersen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-11-30 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: T The Turn analyzes the research of information seeking and retrieval (IS&R) and proposes a new direction of integrating research in these two areas: the fields should turn off their separate and narrow paths and construct a new avenue of research. An essential direction for this avenue is context as given in the subtitle Integration of Information Seeking and Retrieval in Context. Other essential themes in the book include: IS&R research models, frameworks and theories; search and works tasks and situations in context; interaction between humans and machines; information acquisition, relevance and information use; research design and methodology based on a structured set of explicit variables - all set into the holistic cognitive approach. The present monograph invites the reader into a construction project - there is much research to do for a contextual understanding of IS&R. The Turn represents a wide-ranging perspective of IS&R by providing a novel unique research framework, covering both individual and social aspects of information behavior, including the generation, searching, retrieval and use of information. Regarding traditional laboratory information retrieval research, the monograph proposes the extension of research toward actors, search and work tasks, IR interaction and utility of information. Regarding traditional information seeking research, it proposes the extension toward information access technology and work task contexts. The Turn is the first synthesis of research in the broad area of IS&R ranging from systems oriented laboratory IR research to social science oriented information seeking studies.
