SIGIR ’94

Beschreibung

Information retrieval (IR) is becoming an increasingly important area as scientific, business and government organisations take up the notion of "information superhighways" and make available their full text databases for searching. Containing a selection of 35 papers taken from the 17th Annual SIGIR Conference held in Dublin, Ireland in July 1994, the book addresses basic research and provides an evaluation of information retrieval techniques in applications. Topics covered include text categorisation, indexing, user modelling, IR theory and logic, natural language processing, statistical and probabilistic models of information retrieval systems, routing, passage retrieval, and implementation issues.
The book provides comprehensive coverage of the broad range of techniques that make up an effective text-based information system, particularly in the areas of categorisation and routing. These tasks - although related to traditional information retrieval and using many of the same techniques - are different in some crucial aspects, and this has led to a variety of interesting and exciting new research.
