    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Information Retrieval; GIR; Framework; Indexing; Retrieval Model; Other information technology; Övrig informationsteknik;

    Abstract : Geographic information is one of the most important and the most common types of information in human society. It is estimated that more than 70% of all information in the world has some kind of geographic features. READ MORE

  4. 2. Textual information retrieval : An approach based on language modeling and neural networks

    Author : Apostolos A. Georgakis; Haibo Li; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; Informatics; computer and systems science; Language modeling; Informatik; data- och systemvetenskap; Informatics; computer and systems science; Informatik; data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis covers topics relevant to information organization and retrieval. The main objective of the work is to provide algorithms that can elevate the recall-precision performance of retrieval tasks in a wide range of applications ranging from document organization and retrieval to web-document pre-fetching and finally clustering of documents based on novel encoding techniques.

  5. 3. Resource Lenient Approaches to Cross Language Information Retrieval : Using Amharic

    Author : Atelach Alemu Argaw; Lars Asker; Jussi Karlgren; Douglas Oard; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cross language information retrieval; Amharic; stemming; MRD based query translation; transliteration; named entity detection; translation term selection; sense discrimination; POS tagging; Computer and systems science; Data- och systemvetenskap; Computer and Systems Sciences; data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : Information Retrieval (IR) deals with finding and presenting information from a collection of documents/data that are relevant to an information need (a query) expressed by a user. Cross Language Information Retrieval (CLIR) is a subfield of IR where queries are posed in a different language than that of the document collection. READ MORE

  6. 4. Efficient Image Retrieval with Statistical Color Descriptors

    Author : Linh Viet Tran; Reiner Lenz; Björn Kruse; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; color properties; images; statistical; content-based image retrieval CBIR ; non-parametric density estimators; image database; Kernel; Gram-Schmidt; geometry-based; Information technology; Informationsteknologi;

    Abstract : Color has been widely used in content-based image retrieval (CBIR) applications. In such applications the color properties of an image are usually characterized by the probability distribution of the colors in the image. READ MORE

  7. 5. On the Relative Utility of 3D Interfaces

    Author : Monica Tavanti; Mats Lind; Antonio Rizzo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Människa-dator-interaktion; human-computer interaction; information visualization; 2D and 3D interfaces; Människa-dator-interaktion; Information technology; Informationsteknologi; datavetenskap med inriktning människa-dator interaktion; Computer Science; human-computer interaction;

    Abstract : Three-dimensional (3D) interfaces are made with the ambition to reinvent traditional two-dimensional (2D) displays into intuitive 3D environments that allow natural interactions and guarantee users’ satisfaction. However, reality is far from the expectations and 3D interfaces remain experimental. READ MORE
