Abstract:
In a bibliometric study of references to indexing and abstracting from 1876 to 1976 a total of 2,381 references in Wellisch’s Indexing and abstracting: an international bibliography were analysed by a PL/1 program. Most of the articles (67%) appeared as journal papers. The Bradford-Zipf law was applied to investigate the journal literature. Thirteen core journals were identified, six of which emphasize the subject of indexing and abstracting. Lotka’s law was used to measure the productivity of authors. The vast majority, 1,533 out of 1,966 authors, contributed only one article. The leading authors and their active life in this subject were also studied. English is the predominant language of articles on indexing and abstracting.

Abstract:
The last decade has seen an unprecedented flood of material coming into archival repositories. As a result, there is a great need for procedures which provide a high degree of intellectual control over records. One such procedure is the indexing of archival materials. An archival index provides access to a large number of name and subject terms, without being bound by the traditional archival structures dictated by provenance. This process has not traditionally been widely understood by archivists, but it is important to grasp the fundamental principles of archival indexing, as well as the problems and issues that follow. This is especially true in a period when methods of automated information processing have reached new levels of sophistication. This thesis is an exploration of these problems and issues. The place of indexing in a complete system of archival description is established, and the process defended as a valid part of archival retrieval. The thesis also offers guidelines for conducting the actual indexing process, and making several basic decisions faced by archival indexers with regard to the implementation of indexing in an archival descriptive system. In addition, the merits of such alternative methods as controlled-vocabulary and uncontrolled-vocabulary indexing, and coordination of desired terms before and after index creation, are weighed, and the positive and negative aspects of certain recently-developed systems evaluated. The thesis concludes by stating ways in which archivists must re-evaluate the indexing process for it to be used effectively in the future.

Explores different ways that organizational moves and other discourse elements such as hedging are reflected in graduate student research abstracts for theses, dissertations and research articles. Master's thesis abstracts from five disciplines at California State University, San Bernardino were analyzed. Rhetorical conventions in these texts that reflect the epistemological and social expectations of the writers' academic communities were explored. Results indicate that these abstracts use a variety of hedging patterns and many of the moves that have been described for published research articles.

Full text
Abstract:
The music periodical literature of the 19th century has largely remained unavailable to musical scholarship due to a lack of adequate indexing. While several indexing efforts have been attempted in the past century, that proposed by the recently established Répertoire international de la presse musicale du dix-neuviéme siécle (RIPMxix) sets itself apart by its comprehensiveness and its use of computer technology. This thesis tests the new system by preparing a prototype RIPMxix Series A catalogue of a major 19th-century French music journal, La Chronique Musicale (1873-1876). The prototype is in five parts: 1) a Title Catalogue, or chronological checklist of the titles, authors and pagination of all sections in the journal; 2) an Iconography Appendix, listing the captions, dimensions and pagination of all iconography in the journal; 3) a List of Variants, giving alternate pagination references in copies of the journal held by selected major institutions; 4) a Keyword Index of important words contained in article titling; and 5) an Author Index. The indexing of La Chronique Musicale was carried out according to the regulations established in the RIPMxix Series A Guidelines, incorporating minor improvements in presentation, and adjudicating certain indexing situations not addressed in them. A data entry system was developed and the typescript catalogue was entered into computer file space. Detailed formatting based on the general design presented in the RIPMxix Series A Guidelines was specified for the Title Catalogue, Iconography Appendix and List of Variants. To produce the remaining portions of the prototype (viz., the Keyword and Author Indexes), design options were studied, specific designs adopted and detailed formatting established. Production of the prototype involved the development of three computer programmes: a single programme for the Title Catalogue, Iconography Appendix and List of Variants; a separate programme for the Keyword Index; and a third programme for the Author Index. It is concluded that the title-derivative approach taken by the RIPMxix system is a valid one, and suggestions are made for further research.

Full text
Abstract:
This study investigates the relationships between the use of a zoom tool, the terms they supply to describe the image, and the type of image being viewed. Participants were assigned to two groups, one with access to the tool and one without, and were asked to supply terms to describe forty images, divided into four categories: landscape, portrait, news, and cityscape. The terms provided by participants were categorized according to models proposed in earlier image studies. Findings of the study suggest that there was not a significant difference in the number of terms supplied in relation to access to the tool, but a large variety in use of the tool was demonstrated by the participants. The study shows that there are differences in the level of meaning of the terms supplied in some of the models. The type of image being viewed was related to the number of zooms and relationships between the type of image and the number of terms supplied as well as their level of meaning in the various models from previous studies exist. The results of this study provide further insight into how people think about images and how the manipulation of those images may affect the terms they assign to describe images. The inclusion of these tools in search and retrieval scenarios may affect the outcome of the process and the more collection managers know about how people interact with images will improve their ability to provide access to the growing amount of pictorial information.

Full text
Abstract:
The purpose of dissertation is to utilize connotative messages for enhancing image retrieval and browsing. By adopting semiotics as a theoretical tool, this study explores problems of image retrieval and proposes an image retrieval model. The semiotics approach conceptually demonstrates that: 1) a fundamental reason for the dissonance between retrieved images and user needs is representation of connotative messages, and 2) the image retrieval model which makes use of denotative index terms is able to facilitate users to browse connotatively related images effectively even when the users' needs are potentially expressed in the form of denotative query. Two experiments are performed for verifying the semiotic-based image retrieval model and evaluating the effectiveness of the model. As data sources, 5,199 records are collected from Artefacts Canada: Humanities by Canadian Heritage Information Network, and the candidate terms of connotation and denotation are extracted from Art & Architecture Thesaurus. The first experiment, by applying term association measures, verifies that the connotative messages of an image can be derived from denotative messages of the image. The second experiment reveals that the association thesaurus which is constructed based on the associations between connotation and denotation facilitates assigning connotative terms to image documents. In addition, the result of relevant judgments presents that the association thesaurus improves the relative recall of retrieved image documents as well as the relative recall of browsing sets. This study concludes that the association thesaurus indicating associations between connotation and denotation is able to improve the accessibility of the connotative messages. The results of the study are hoped to contribute to the conceptual knowledge of image retrieval by providing understandings of connotative messages within an image and to the practical design of image retrieval system by proposing an association thesaurus which can supplement the limitations of the current content-based image retrieval systems (CBIR).

Abstract:
Subject access to images is a major issue for image collections. Research is needed to understand how indexing and tagging contribute to make the subjects of historic photographs accessible. This thesis firstly investigates the evidence of cognitive dissonance between indexers and users in the way they attribute subjects to historic photographs, and, secondly, how indexers and users might work together to enhance subject description. It analyses how current indexing and social tagging represent the subject content of historic photographs. It also suggests a practical way indexers can work with taggers to deal with the classic problem of resource constraints and to enhance metadata to make photo collections more accessible. In an original application of the Shatford/Panofsky classification matrix within the applications domain of historic images, patterns of subject attribution are explored between taggers and professional indexers. The study was conducted in two stages. The first stage (Studies A to D) investigated how professional indexers and taggers represent the subject content of historic photographs and revealed differences based on Shatford/Panofsky. The indexers (Study A) demonstrated a propensity for specific and generic subjects and almost complete avoidance of abstracts. In contrast, a pilot study with users (Study B) and with baseline taggers (Studies C and D) showed their propensity for generics and equal inclination to specifics and abstracts. The evidence supports the conclusion that indexers and users approach the subject content of historic photographs differently, demonstrating cognitive dissonance, a conflict between how they appear to think about and interpret images. The second stage (Study E) demonstrated that an online training intervention affected tagging behaviour. The intervention resulted in increased tagging and fuller representation of all subject facets according to the Shatford/Panofsky classification matrix. The evidence showed that trained taggers tagged more generic and abstract facets than untrained taggers. Importantly, this suggests that training supports the annotation of the higher levels of subject content and so potentially provides enhanced intellectual access. The research demonstrated a practical way institutions can work with taggers to extend the representation of subject content in historic photographs. Improved subject description is critical for intellectual access and retrieval in the cultural heritage space. Through systematic application of the training method a richer corpus of descriptors might be created that enhances machine based information retrieval via automatic extraction.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: We present DEADLINER, a special-purpose search engine that indexes conference and workshop announcements, and which extracts a range of academic information from the Web. SVMs provide an efficient and highly accurate mechanism for obtaining relevant web documents. DEADLINER currently extracts speakers, locations (e.g. countries), dates, paper submission (and other) deadlines, topics, program committees, abstracts, and affiliations. Complex and detailed searches are possible on these fields. The niche search engine was constructed by employing a methodology for rapid implementation of specialised search engines. Bayesian integration of simple extractors provides this methodology, that avoids complex hand-tuned text extraction methods. The simple extractors exploit loose formatting and keyword conventions. The Bayesian framework further produces a search engine where each user can control each fields false alarm rate in an intuitive and rigorous fashion, thus providing easy-to-use metadata.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Ons stel DEADLINER bekend: 'n soekmasjien wat konferensie en werkvergaderingsaankondigings katalogiseer en wat uiteindelik 'n wye reeks akademiese byeenkomsmateriaal sal monitor en onttrek uit die Web. DEAD LINER herken en onttrek tans sprekers, plekke (bv. landname), datums, o.a. sperdatums vir die inlewering van akademiese verrigtings, onderwerpe, programkomiteë, oorsigte of opsommings, en affiliasies. 'n Grondige soek is moontlik oor en deur hierdie velde. Die nissoekmasjien is gebou deur gebruik te maak van 'n metodologie vir die vinnige oprigting van spesialiteitsoekmasjiene. Die metodologie vermy komplekse instelling m.b.v. hande-arbeid van die teksuittreksels deur gebruik te maak van Bayesiese integrering van eenvoudige ontsluiters. Die ontsluiters buit dan styl- en gewoonte-sleutelwoorde uit. Die Bayesiese raamwerk skep hierdeur 'n soekmasjien wat gebruikers toelaat om elke veld se kans om verkeerd te kies op 'n intuïtiewe en deeglike manier te beheer.

Abstract:
AbstractIn a standout scene in Toni Erdmann (Maren Ade, 2016), straight-laced management consultant Ines (Sandra Hüller) is quietly coerced by her father Winfried (Peter Simonischek)—here in character as his eccentric alter ego Toni—into singing to a room full of strangers at a party. Hüller’s rendition of ‘Greatest Love of All’, made famous by Whitney Houston’s 1986 cover, drew spontaneous applause at the film’s Cannes première, and many critics identify it as a ‘feel-good’ moment in the film’s otherwise awkward comedy. This chapter considers the more ambivalent affects of Toni Erdmann’s musical moment as it participates in the complex personal and political dynamics of a film that is less a comedy than a drama about the possibilities and failures of the comic and of performance as responses to fraying familial and social bonds under late capitalism. Drawing on Henri Bergson’s theory of humour, Sianne Ngai’s account of ‘zany’ comedy and Lauren Berlant’s notion of the ‘impasse’, the chapter argues that the film’s deliberate frustration of some of the musical moment’s more utopic functions is key to its affective indexing of the present and the conditions of post-industrial capitalism.

Abstract:
Indexing and abstracting are like Siamese twins in the information retrieval process. Indexing and abstracting are the two approaches to distilling information content into an abbreviated, but comprehensive representation of an information resource(s). They are knowledge organisation tools which usually provide detailed and accurate maps and road signs in the information superhighway. Digital libraries are characterised by an electronic stock of information which can be accessed via computers, and are extension and augmentations of physical libraries in digital forms. They are information retrieval systems (a device interposed between a potential user of information and the information itself) which provide opportunities to access and retrieve information that is often accessible for a variety of reasons. This chapter presents a literature review on indexing and abstracting, information retrieval process, digital libraries pointing out the importance of indexing and abstracting in the information retrieving process and then highlighting the roles played by indexing and abstracting as tools for information retrieval in digital libraries. The chapter posits that indexing and abstracting plays a significant role as information retrieval tools in digital libraries.

Abstract:
Abstract Reuse of prior design experience allows an engineer to save design time, by leveraging off previous work-out solutions, and to avoid repeating past mistakes, by accessing information on manufacturing or field failures. Indexing and retrieving of design cases is efficiently done based on qualitative descriptions of the behavior specification of a device. Qualitative influences has been used for behavior representation and reasoning since they allow behavior decomposition and synthesis of design parts taken from different contexts. Thus, innovative new designs are generated. However, a drawback of this kind of high-level abstractions is that important performance information contained in design specifications is not taken into account. In this article, performance information such as ranges of operation and types of response are added to the qualitative behavior representation. Higher-order behavior representations are also studied. Reasoning mechanisms are accordingly extended for index generation and retrieval of previous designs. As a result of considering performance information, the number of synthesized designs not performing according to specification can be reduced. Analysis and simulation time spent in design verification is, thereby, also reduced.
