Download or read book Supporting Web Search and Navigation by an Overlay Linking Structure written by Georg Philipp Roßrucker and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-02 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Search and navigation in hyperlinked networks have been subjects of research since the Internet emerged. Due to its incompleteness in terms of linking related content, the existing linking structure of the Web and similar networks cannot be utilized as a searchable index without prior application of suitable crawling strategies and content categorization. Following the example of sitemaps, a map-like extension to the existing link structure of the network is proposed that creates additional contextual links. For this, a concept and algorithms are devised that allow the creation of contextual cluster files, to which documents are assigned and between which semantically relevant links are established. The resulting WebMap covers all searchable resources on the original network in a contextual overlay network and enables new search and navigation approaches.

Download or read book Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management Ontologies and the Semantic Web written by V. Richard Benjamins and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-08-02 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: th This volume contains the papers presented at the 13 International Conference on Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management (EKAW 2002) held in Sig enza, Spain, October 1-4, 2002. Papers were invited on topics related to Knowledge Acquisition, Knowledge Management, Ontologies, and the Semantic Web. A total of 110 papers were submitted. Each submission was evaluated by at least two reviewers. The selection process has resulted in the acceptance of 20 long and 14 short papers for publication and presentation at the conference; an acceptance rate of about 30%. In addition, one invited paper by a keynote speaker is included. This volume contains 8 papers on Knowledge Acquisition, 4 about Knowledge Management, 16 on Ontologies, and 6 papers about the Semantic Web. This was the second time (EKAW 2000 being the first) that the event was organized as a conference rather than as the usual workshop (hence the acronym: European Knowledge Acquisition Workshop). The large number of submissions (110 versus the usual 40-60) is an indication that the scientific community values EKAW as an important event to share experiences in the Knowledge Technology area, worthy of being organized as a prestigious international conference. Knowledge is the fuel of the upcoming Knowledge Economy. Therefore, we believe that conferences such as EKAW, that focus on Knowledge Technologies, will continue to play a major role as a platform for sharing and exchanging experiences and knowledge between key players in the area.

Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2013 in the subject Computer Science - Miscellaneous, , course: Computer Science and Engineering - Human Computer Interaction, language: English, abstract: This book addresses to some of the important issues, challenges and approaches related to web accessibility in context of visually impaired users. Speech is a convenient medium of interaction for visually challenged users, Internet accessibility for them is made possible by providing an alternative speech-based interface for human-computer interaction. Problems associated with speech based web interfaces are manifold. Most of the web content available today has been designed for the visual interface via graphical browsers. Screen Readers have been the primary tool for using internet by visually impaired. Unfortunately, most of the popular and workable screen readers are proprietary and bear a heavy price tag. Thus, Design and development of powerful yet affordable speech based interfaces would be certainly helpful in enhancing the overall Quality of Life of visually challenged.
