  • No Facet Analyses of Categories Used in Web Directories
    Date : 09/ 06/2006 Facet Analyses of Categories Used in Web Directories: A Comparative Study Kyung-Sun Kim Sei-Ching Joanna Sin Soo-Jin Park Xiaohua Zhu Jom Polparsi School of Library and Information Studies University of Wisconsin-Madison Madison, USA Meeting: 136 Classification and Indexing Simultaneous Interpretation: No WORLD LIBRARY AND INFORMATION CONGRESS: 72ND IFLA GENERAL CONFERENCE AND COUNCIL 20-24 August 2006, Seoul, Korea http://www.ifla.org/IV/ifla72/index.htm Abstract Faceted classification is believed to be suitable for organizing digital information resources. Based on a faceted classification model suggested for Web resources (Zins, 2002), the current study analyzed popular Web directories from different Asian countries/areas and examined cultural differences reflected in their classification systems. Three popular Web directories from four countries/regions (China, Hong Kong, Korea, and Thailand) were selected and their classifications were analyzed and compared: a local Yahoo and two home-grown Web directories from each country/region. Based on the findings, the study suggests a model that might be more suitable to Asian culture. INTRODUCTION Information available through the Web is becoming more diverse and its amount is also growing rapidly. As of January 2005, it is estimated that the indexable Web has reached to at least 11.5 billion pages (Gulli & Signorini, 2005). Presently, these voluminous and ever changing resources on the Web are often organized in mostly hierarchical classification systems. However, such hierarchical systems might not be as suitable for organizing cross-cultural resources for a culturally and linguistically diverse groups, as there might be cultural differences in categorization (Segall, 1990; Malt, 1995).

  • A Study on Vertical and Broad-Based Search Engines
    International Journal of Latest Trends in Engineering and Technology IJLTET Special Issue- ICRACSC-2016 , pp.087-093 e-ISSN: 2278-621X A STUDY ON VERTICAL AND BROAD-BASED SEARCH ENGINES M.Swathi1 and M.Swetha2 Abstract-Vertical search engines or Domain-specific search engines[1][2] are becoming increasingly popular because they offer increased accuracy and extra features not possible with general, Broad-based search engines or Web-wide search engines. The paper focuses on the survey of domain specific search engine which is becoming more popular as compared to Web- Wide Search Engines as they are difficult to maintain and time consuming .It is also difficult to provide appropriate documents to represent the target data. We also listed various vertical search engines and Broad-based search engines. Index terms: Domain specific search, vertical search engines, broad based search engines. I. INTRODUCTION The Web has become a very rich source of information for almost any field, ranging from music to histories, from sports to movies, from science to culture, and many more. However, it has become increasingly difficult to search for desired information on the Web. Users are facing the problem of information overload , in which a search on a general-purpose search engine such as Google (www.google.com) results in thousands of hits.Because a user cannot specify a search domain (e.g. medicine, music), a search query may bring up Web pages both within and outside the desired domain. Example 1: A user searching for “cancer” may get Web pages related to the disease as well as those related to the Zodiac sign.

  • Evaluation of Web-Based Search Engines Using User-Effort Measures
    Evaluation of Web-Based Search Engines Using User-Effort Measures Muh-Chyun Tang and Ying Sun 4 Huntington St. School of Information, Communication and Library Studies Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, U.S.A. [email protected] [email protected] Abstract This paper presents a study of the applicability of three user-effort-sensitive evaluation measures —“first 20 full precision,” “search length,” and “rank correlation”—on four Web-based search engines (Google, AltaVista, Excite and Metacrawler). The authors argue that these measures are better alternatives than precision and recall in Web search situations because of their emphasis on the quality of ranking. Eight sets of search topics were collected from four Ph.D. students in four different disciplines (biochemistry, industrial engineering, economics, and urban planning). Each participant was asked to provide two topics along with the corresponding query terms. Their relevance and credibility judgment of the Web pages were then used to compare the performance of the search engines using these three measures. The results show consistency among these three ranking evaluation measures, more so between “first 20 full precision” and search length than between rank correlation and the other two measures. Possible reasons for rank correlation’s disagreement with the other two measures are discussed. Possible future research to improve these measures is also addressed. Introduction The explosive growth of information on the World Wide Web poses a challenge to traditional information retrieval (IR) research. Other than the sheer amount of information, some structural factors make searching for relevant and quality information on the Web a formidable task.

THE WORLD WIDE WEB VIRTUAL LIBRARY: NUCLEAR SCIENCES Jozef KURUC Department of Nuclear Chemistry, Faculty of Natural Sciences, Comenius University, Mlynska dolina CH-1, SK-842 15 Bratislava, Slovak Republic, E-mail: [email protected] Similarly as in other areas, as well as in chemistry, INTERNET has brought revolutionary changes in searching, processing of information and in.the teaching of chemistry [1], The powerful instrument in searching of information in INTERNET are different browsers of the web-pages (www.altavista.com, www.yahoo.com, search.excite.com, www.webcrawier.com, www.iycos.com, infoseeek.go.com, www.hotbot.com, www.zoznam.sk, www.kompas.sk www.seznam.cz and other) [2], but they usually give over-much number of web-pages. Sometimes is ill and slowly to obtain necessary information from so over- much number searched and offered web-pages. By searching in the INTERNET assists the advanced searching, but sometimes it does not conduce to searched information. For assistance by the solving of these problems and for speeding-up of the work serve specialised servers, which give grouped information from certain scientific area and first and foremost links for next relative relevant web-links and web-pages, which are in the area of chemistry, for example, Yahoo- Chemistry-Server [3], list of Mendeleev periodic tables of elements [4], from which each provides certain supplementary information about properties of individual elements, isotopes, occasionally radionuclides. Some of them provide more detail information about radioisotopes [5-7], in nuclear physics it is, for example, Nuclear Info WWW Server [8}.

(1) Most current search technology is based on a popularity metric (e.g., PageRank or ExpertRank), but not on the semantic content of the searched document. (2) When building components in a service- oriented architecture (SOA), developers must investigate whether components that meet certain requirements already exist. (3) There is no easy way for writers of requirements documents to formally specify the meaning and domain of their requirements. Our goal in the research presented here is to address these concerns by designing a search engine that searches over the “meanings" of requirements documents.

  • A Survey of Collaborative Web Search Through Collaboration Among Search Engine Users to More Relevant Results
    A Survey of Collaborative Web Search Through Collaboration among Search Engine Users to More Relevant Results Pavel Surynek Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University in Prague, Malostranské náměstí 25, Prague, Czech Republic Keywords: Collaborative Web Search, Social Search, Search Engine, Search Results, Collaborative Filtering, Recommender Systems, System Integration. Abstract: A survey on collaborative aspects of web search is presented in this paper. Current state in full-text web search engines with regards on users collaboration is given. The position of the paper is that it is becoming increasingly important to learn from other users searches in a collaborative way in order to provide more relevant results and increase benefit from web search sessions. Recommender systems represent a rich source of concepts that could be employed to enable collaboration in web search. A discussion of techniques used in recommender systems is followed by a suggestion of integration web search with recommender sys- tems. An initial experience with web search powering small academic site is reported finally. 1 INTRODUCTION AND assumption that a series of queries characterize the effort of what the user want to find better than the MOTIVATION single query. The typical search engine however does not help in this effort – users are put into isola- Web search is an area of the information technology tion typically which precludes any cooperation and industry where artificial intelligence and particularly recommendation from other users based on past knowledge engineering techniques can be applied queries.

  • Portal Is Most Often One Specially-Designed Web Page at a Website Which Brings Information Together from Diverse Sources in a Uniform Way
    A web portal is most often one specially-designed Web page at a website which brings information together from diverse sources in a uniform way. Usually, each information source gets its dedicated area on the page for displaying information (a portlet); often, the user can configure which ones to display. Variants of portals include Mashup (web application hybrid) and intranet"dashboards" for executives and managers. The extent to which content is displayed in a "uniform way" may be more or less depending on the intended user and the intended purpose as well as the diversity of the content. Very often design emphasis is on a certain "metaphor" for configuring and customizing the presentation of the content and the chosen implementation framework and/or code libraries. In addition, the role of the user in an organization may determine which content can be added to the portal or deleted from the portal configuration. A portal may use a search engine API to permit users to search intranet content as opposed to extranet content by restricting which domains may be searched. Apart from this common search engines feature, web portals may offer other services such as e-mail, news, stock quotes, information from databases and even entertainment content. Portals provide a way for enterprises and organizations to provide a consistent look and feel with access control and procedures for multiple applications and databases, which otherwise would have been different web entities at various URLs. The features available may be restricted by whether access is by an authorized and authenticated user (employee,member) or an anonymous site visitor.
