    Computer Science Intelligent Technologies for Web Applications for Web Technologies Intelligent Chapman & Hall/CRC Chapman & Hall/CRC Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery Series Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery Series The Internet has become an integral part of human life, yet the web still utilizes mundane interfaces to the physical world, which makes Internet operations somewhat mechanical, tedious, and less human-oriented. Filling a large void in the literature, Intelligent Technologies for Web Applications is one of the first books to focus on providing vital fundamental and advanced guidance in the area of web intelligence for beginners and researchers. Covers techniques from diverse areas of research, including • Natural language processing • Information extraction, retrieval, and filtering • Knowledge representation and management • Machine learning • Databases • Data, web, and text mining • Human–computer interaction • Semantic web technologies To develop effective and intelligent web applications and services, it is critical to discover useful knowledge through analyzing large amounts of content, hidden content structures, or usage patterns of web data resources. Intended to improve and reinforce problem-solving methods in this area, this book delves into the hybridization of artificial intelligence (AI) and web technologies to help simplify complex web operations. It introduces readers to the state-of-the art development of web intelligence techniques and teaches how to apply these techniques to develop the next generation of intelligent web applications.

  • What Are Syndication Feeds by Shelley Powers
    What Are Syndication Feeds By Shelley Powers ............................................... Publisher: O'Reilly Pub Date: December 2005 Print ISBN-10: 0-596-52697-0 Print ISBN-13: 978-0-59-652697-9 Pages: 24 Table of Contents When you enter the world of syndicated content, you're often faced with the question of what is the "proper" way to do syndication. While syndication feeds have become a standard tool on the Web-- you've seen their signposts: a little orange button labeled XML in white letters, or maybe buttons that say Atom, RSS 2.0, RSS 1.0, or even Feed--it is important that your syndication feed be an extension of your site. It should reflect your interests, your concerns, and your choices. This edoc will help you learn about these pervasive little blobs of XML markup: their purpose, the elements that make up a feed, the different formats, and the tools for generating and consuming feeds. The tutorial starts with a succinct description of what a feed really is, then it covers: What Makes Up a Feed: A look at the common container and entry elements for a feed, and what they do. Industry Support: An overview of the major players and tools for syndication feeds. Discovering Feeds: How to make your site easy to subscribe to. Subscribing To and Reading Feeds: A look at various aggregators and how to use them. Which Feeds Work Best for You: Should you use RSS 1.0, RSS 2.0, or Atom? Or all of them? Here's how to decide. This tutorial will help you get your syndication feed up and running, so you can then forget about it and focus instead on what's really important at your site: the content you are providing to the world.

  • Design and Development of a Learning-Augmented RSS Feed Reader Program “The Mindful Reader”
    Project Number: DCB-0802 Design and Development of a Learning-Augmented RSS Feed Reader Program “The Mindful Reader” A Major Qualifying Project Report: submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science By _________________________________ Chris Drouin Date: April 29, 2009 _________________________________ Professor David C. Brown (CS) Abstract The Mindful Reader Project centers on the design and development of a machine learning- augmented newsfeed aggregation application. It seeks to reduce the time necessary for users to find interesting newsfeed articles, by building a user interest model from implicit and explicit article ratings and applying that model to rank incoming articles based on predicted user interest. The software was developed using code from the RSSOwl project; in tests, the user interest model grew more accurate with time. ii Executive Summary Feed aggregator software and services, such as RSSOwl and Google Reader, can be used to subscribe to websites and obtain streaming updates regarding new articles or items posted to those websites. These existing aggregators follow an email-client-like design that can make it time- consuming and inconvenient to manage high volumes of incoming articles. The Mindful Reader project aims to solve this problem by modeling user interests and using that model to rate and filter incoming articles. As reducing user fatigue is an important goal of this project, the Mindful Reader builds its user interest model in part through observation of normal user behavior, rather than requiring explicit user judgment of every viewed article. It uses metrics established by the earlier Curious Browser projects to measure implicit user interest in article content, while still allowing the user to train the system by providing explicit content ratings.

  • An Introduction to RSS and the CASH Newsfeeds
    An Introduction to RSS and the CASH Newsfeeds What this user guide covers: This user guide provides an introduction to RSS, including an explanation of the different types of RSS reader or reader. The CASH service produces a range of RSS newsfeeds for different subjects, the content of which can be viewed or subscribed to via CASH website. Introduction to RSS What is RSS? RSS stands for ‘Really Simple Syndication’– it refers to files easily read by a computer called “XML files” that automatically update information. This information is fetched by an RSS feed reader that converts the files into the latest updates from websites in an easy to read format or a newsfeed. Newsfeeds are useful for aggregating web content by topic, author or website. Instead of visiting multiple web pages to check for new content, the user can look at the summaries and choose which links to follow for the full versions. The items of information gathered via RSS can be viewed in an RSS ‘reader’. Even with countless ways to receive information these days, the RSS feeder still holds its own as an important way for you to stay updated on what’s important to you. What is an RSS reader? RSS feed readers offer an efficient way to follow news, websites, software updates, newsletters, blogs and more. Many have strong search capabilities. There are three different types of reader. Web based readers Web based readers are simple to use and require no software downloads. They have the advantage of being accessible from any computer with an internet connection, and therefore provide a good option for those wishing to view their RSS subscriptions from multiple locations and PCs/devices.

  • Opinions Libres - 1 / 8 - Edition PDF Du 6 Septembre 2020 2
    1 Choisir son lecteur RSS La notion d’hyperchoix concerne surtout les contenus culturels et les offres disponibles d’appareils numériques tels que les téléphones portables, les appareils photos numériques, la hifi, les écrans ou les PC et leurs périphériques. Il en est un qui relève du logiciel et qui est tout aussi perturbant pour l’internaute éclairé que j’essaye d’être : les lecteurs RSS, appelés également aggrégateurs RSS. Ce sont ces logiciels qui permettent de consulter les nouveaux articles publiés sur des sites Web ou blogs préalablement sélectionnés. Ils affichent la liste des articles, permettent d’en voir le résumé, le texte complet, sans changer de fenêtre. Et d’effacer ce qui a été lu au fur et à mesure, et ainsi, de voir ce qu’il reste à lire et dépiler. On peut ainsi se créer des listes de sites à consulter facilement et éviter de consulter ces sites un par un pour découvrir leurs nouveautés. L’information disponible dans tous les domaines est incroyablement riche. Au point qu’un lecteur RSS bien configuré peut faire économiser pas mal d’achat de presse papier. Tout du moins, dans le mode de fonctionnement actuel des principaux médias. Ainsi, le texte quasi intégral de journaux comme Le Monde et Libération est disponible en flux RSS. Et si on a la chance de maitriser l’anglais, le réservoir d’informations publiés via RSS dans tous les domaines est infini. Voici un exemple de lecteur RSS, SharpReader, que j’utilisais jusqu’à il y peu de temps (image ci- dessous). Il est assez simple mais me convient bien.
