Abstract:
The goal of this study is to increase understanding of information problems as they are revealed in interactions among users and search intermediaries during information retrieval. Specifically, this study seeks to investigate: (a) how interaction between users and search intermediaries reveals aspects of user information problems; (b) to explore the concept of representation with respect to information problems in interactive information retrieval; and (c) how user and search intermediaries focus on aspects of user information problems during the course of searches.

Abstract:
Millennial students make up a large portion of undergraduate students attending colleges and universities, and they have a variety of online resources available to them to complete academically related information searches, primarily Web based and library-based online information retrieval systems. The content, ease of use, and required search techniques are different between the two information retrieval systems. Students often prefer searching the Web, but in doing so often miss higher quality materials that may be available only through their library. Furthermore, each system uses different

The explosive growth of multimedia data in online media repositories and social networks has led to the high demand of fast and accurate services for large-scale multimedia retrieval. Hashing, due to its effectiveness in coding high-dimensional data into a low-dimensional binary space, has been considered to be effective for the retrieval application. Despite the progress that has been made recently, how to learn the optimal hashing models which can make the best trade-off between the retrieval efficiency and accuracy remains to be open research issues.

By allowing judgments based on a small number of exemplar documents to be applied to a larger number of unexamined documents, clustered presentation of search results represents an intuitively attractive possibility for reducing the cognitive resource demands on human users of information retrieval systems. However, clustered presentation of search results is sensible only to the extent that naturally occurring similarity relationships among documents correspond to topically coherent clusters. The Cluster Hypothesis posits just such a systematic relationship between document similarity and top

Nucleic acid and protein databases such as GenBank are growing at a rate that perhaps eclipses even Moore’s Law of increase in computational power.

This has led to the development of a series of search algorithms, such as FASTA, BLAST and BLAT, that are eac

At the same time, one of the current trends is to use standard technologies for implementing solutions to complex software problems.

In order to demonstrate my solution, I implemented a prototype mediation system called Omphalos based on XML related technologies.

The possibilities of these factors are limited, mainly of those that are based on the widely used link popularity measures.

It is common to see documents with explicit structure marked up in languages such as XML. Queries, on the other hand, typically have no structure. There is a clear mismatch, although documents contain structure it is typically not used in information retrieval.

It is shown to be at worst linear with respect to the number of occurrences of a given search term. The algorithm is then extended to accommodate element-centric information retrieval.

This approach makes it possible to use both text information (e.g. the initial query) and image features (e.g. as part of the refinement stage) to identify images which are relevant to the user.
