Peer reviewedFidel, Raya; Efthimiadis, Efthimis N. – Information Processing & Management, 1995
Examines the knowledge base of an intermediary expert system that provides advice about search term selection. Topics include a proposal for an integrated approach, including an option focusing on terminological attributes based on knowledge acquired from professional searchers; and the content of the knowledge base and the research needed to…

Peer reviewedMoens, Marie-Francine; Dumortier, Jos – Information Processing & Management, 2000
The purpose of this research is to simulate the manual process of assigning descriptors to magazine articles by machine, to investigate how successful automated assignment of descriptors to a heterogeneous text collection is when a text classifier is trained based upon a small set of manually classified example texts, and to test performance of…

Peer reviewedJorgensen, Corinne – Information Processing & Management, 1998
Report on exploratory research which investigated image attributes in a series of describing tasks. Results suggest that access to a wide range of attributes is needed to address all facets of interest and that certain classes of attributes may appear more frequently (literal objects, human form and associated attributes, color, and location).…

Peer reviewedMorato, Jorge; Llorens, J.; Genova, G.; Moreiro, J. A. – Information Processing & Management, 2003
Discusses the inclusion of contextual information in indexing and retrieval systems to improve results and the ability to carry out text analysis by means of linguistic knowledge. Presents research that investigated whether discourse variables have an impact on information and retrieval and classification algorithms. (Author/LRW)

Peer reviewedGauch, John M.; Gauch, Susan; Bouix, Sylvain; Zhu, Xiaolan – Information Processing & Management, 1999
Describes the VISION (video indexing for searching over networks) digital video library system which was developed at the University of Kansas as a testbed for evaluating automatic and comprehensive mechanisms for library creation and content-based search and retrieval of video over local and wide area networks. Discusses experimental results.…

Peer reviewedBlair, David C.; Kimbrough, Steven O. – Information Processing & Management, 2002
Suggests an alternative document representation method based on "exemplary documents," those that describe or exhibit the intellectual structure of a particular field of interest. Exemplary documents provide both an indexing vocabulary for that area and a narrative context in which the indexing terms have a clearer meaning. It is much…
