Abstract

In Zusammenarbeit mit der norwegischen Suchtechnologie-Firma Fast Search & Transfer hat die Universitätsbibliothek Bielefeld den Prototyp einer Suchmaschine für wissenschaftliche Bibliotheken entwickelt. Dieser demonstriert jetzt mit dem öffentlichen Zugriff auf ausgewählte digitalisierte Sammlungen der Projektteilnehmer die neuen Möglichkeiten des akademischen Retrieval. <http://www.heise.de/RealMedia/ads/adstream_lx.ads/www.heise.de/newsticker/meldungen/wissenschaft/954604605/Middle1/he-test-contentads/zaehler.html/38363566383735383364653062323630?_RM_EMPTY_> Während kommerzielle Suchmaschinen wie Google oder Yahoo sich nicht an akademischen Kriterien orientieren, beschränkt sich die Bielefeld Academic Search Engine (BASE ) auf die von wissenschaftlichen Bibliotheken erschlossenen und aufbereiteten Inhalte. Dazu gehören Hochschulschriften, Preprints, elektronische Zeitschriften und digitale Sammlungen, wie beispielsweise die "Internet Library of Early Journals" des Oxford University Library Service und die "Wissenschaftlichen Rezensionsorgane und Literaturzeitschriften des 18. und 19. Jahrhunderts aus dem deutschen Sprachraum" der UB Bielefeld. Wer etwa bei Google die Stichworte "Immanuel Kant" +Frieden eingibt, kommt zwar schnell an den Originaltext des Aufsatzes "Zum ewigen Frieden" heran, tut sich jedoch schwer, unter den bunt gemischten über 11.000 Treffern gezielt weiter zu recherchieren. Das BASE-Modell dagegen stellt dem Nutzer hierfür vielfältige Navigationshilfen und Metainformationen zur Verfügung. So erleichtert unter anderem die Verfeinerung der Suche auf das Erscheinungsjahr den Zugriff auf die zeitgenössische Diskussion der berühmten Schrift des Königsberger Philosophen. Derzeit ermöglicht der BASE-Prototyp das Retrieval in 15 verschiedenen Archivquellen. Darunter befinden sich die Zeitschriften der Aufklärung, die Elektronischen Dissertationen der Universität Bochum, das elektronische Journal Documenta Mathematica sowie die Mathematischen Volltexte des Springer-Verlags. Der geplante Ausbau soll sich auf eine verteilte Architektur stützen, in der von einzelnen Bibliotheken lokal erstellte Indexe gemeinsam zu einem virtuellen Master-Index beitragen. Dies würde dem Nutzer die nahtlose Navigation durch die verteilten Bestände erlauben."

Abstract

"Die Bayerische Staatsbibliothek testet den semantischen "Discovery Service" Yewno als zusätzliche thematische Suchmaschine für digitale Volltexte. Der Service ist unter folgendem Link erreichbar: https://www.bsb-muenchen.de/recherche-und-service/suchen-und-finden/yewno/. Das Identifizieren von Themen, um die es in einem Text geht, basiert bei Yewno alleine auf Methoden der künstlichen Intelligenz und des maschinellen Lernens. Dabei werden sie nicht - wie bei klassischen Katalogsystemen - einem Text als Ganzem zugeordnet, sondern der jeweiligen Textstelle. Die Eingabe eines Suchwortes bzw. Themas, bei Yewno "Konzept" genannt, führt umgehend zu einer grafischen Darstellung eines semantischen Netzwerks relevanter Konzepte und ihrer inhaltlichen Zusammenhänge. So ist ein Navigieren über thematische Beziehungen bis hin zu den Fundstellen im Text möglich, die dann in sogenannten Snippets angezeigt werden. In der Test-Anwendung der Bayerischen Staatsbibliothek durchsucht Yewno aktuell 40 Millionen englischsprachige Dokumente aus Publikationen namhafter Wissenschaftsverlage wie Cambridge University Press, Oxford University Press, Wiley, Sage und Springer, sowie Dokumente, die im Open Access verfügbar sind. Nach der dreimonatigen Testphase werden zunächst die Rückmeldungen der Nutzer ausgewertet. Ob und wann dann der Schritt von der klassischen Suchmaschine zum semantischen "Discovery Service" kommt und welche Bedeutung Anwendungen wie Yewno in diesem Zusammenhang einnehmen werden, ist heute noch nicht abzusehen. Die Software Yewno wurde vom gleichnamigen Startup in Zusammenarbeit mit der Stanford University entwickelt, mit der auch die Bayerische Staatsbibliothek eng kooperiert.

Abstract

With the development of the World Wide Web, the "information search" has grown to be a significant business sector of a global, competitive and commercial market. Powerful players have entered this market, such as commercial internet search engines, information portals, multinational publishers and online content integrators. Will Google, Yahoo or Microsoft be the only portals to global knowledge in 2010? If libraries do not want to become marginalized in a key area of their traditional services, they need to acknowledge the challenges that come with the globalisation of scholarly information, the existence and further growth of the academic internet

Abstract

DAFFODIL is a search system for digital libraries aiming at strategic support during the information search process. From a user point of view this strategic support is mainly implemented by high-level search functions, so-called stratagems, which provide functionality beyond today's digital libraries. Through the tight integration of stratagems and with the federation of heterogeneous digital libraries, DAFFODIL reaches high effects of synergy for information and services. These effects provide high-quality metadata for the searcher through an intuitively controllable user interface. The implementation of stratagems follows a tool-based model.

Abstract

Directed Query Engines, an emerging class of search engine specifically designed to access distributed resources on the deep web, offer the opportunity to create inexpensive digital libraries. Already, one such engine, Distributed Explorer, has been used to select and assemble high quality information resources and incorporate them into publicly available systems for the physical sciences. By nesting Directed Query Engines so that one query launches several other engines in a cascading fashion, enormous virtual collections may soon be assembled to form a comprehensive information infrastructure for the physical sciences. Once a Directed Query Engine has been configured for a set of information resources, distributed alerts tools can provide patrons with personalized, profile-based notices of recent additions to any of the selected resources. Due to the potentially enormous size and scope of Directed Query Engine applications, consideration must be given to issues surrounding the representation of large quantities of information from multiple, heterogeneous sources.

Abstract

Eine ganze Anzahl von Bibliotheken in Europa befaßt sich mit der Entwicklung von Internet Subject Gateways - einer Serviceleistung, die den Nutzern helfen soll, qualitativ hochwertige Internetquellen zu finden. Subject Gateways wie SOSIG (The Social Science Information Gateway) sind bereits seit einigen Jahren im Internet verfügbar und stellen eine Alternative zu Internet-Suchmaschinen wie AltaVista und Verzeichnissen wie Yahoo dar. Bezeichnenderweise stützen sich Subject Gateways auf die Fertigkeiten, Verfahrensweisen und Standards der internationalen Bibliothekswelt und wenden diese auf Informationen aus dem Internet an. Dieses Referat will daher betonen, daß Bibliothekare/innen idealerweise eine vorherrschende Rolle im Aufbau von Suchservices für Internetquellen spielen und daß Information Gateways eine Möglichkeit dafür darstellen. Es wird einige der Subject Gateway-Initiativen in Europa umreißen und die Werkzeuge und Technologien beschreiben, die vom Projekt DESIRE entwickelt wurden, um die Entwicklung neuer Gateways in anderen Ländern zu unterstützen. Es wird auch erörtert, wie IMesh, eine Gruppe für Gateways aus der ganzen Welt eine internationale Strategie für Gateways anstrebt und versucht, Standards zur Umsetzung dieses Projekts zu entwickeln

Abstract

In this note, we show how to marginalize over the damping parameter of the PageRank equation so as to obtain a parameter-free version known as TotalRank. Our discussion is meant as a reference and intended to provide a guided tour towards an interesting result that has applications in information retrieval and classification.

Abstract

This site provides a collection of schemas, i.e., html tags, that webmasters can use to markup their pages in ways recognized by major search providers. Search engines including Bing, Google and Yahoo! rely on this markup to improve the display of search results, making it easier for people to find the right web pages. Many sites are generated from structured data, which is often stored in databases. When this data is formatted into HTML, it becomes very difficult to recover the original structured data. Many applications, especially search engines, can benefit greatly from direct access to this structured data. On-page markup enables search engines to understand the information on web pages and provide richer search results in order to make it easier for users to find relevant information on the web. Markup can also enable new tools and applications that make use of the structure. A shared markup vocabulary makes easier for webmasters to decide on a markup schema and get the maximum benefit for their efforts. So, in the spirit of sitemaps.org, Bing, Google and Yahoo! have come together to provide a shared collection of schemas that webmasters can use.

Abstract

Swoogle is a crawler-based indexing and retrieval system for the Semantic Web, i.e., for Web documents in RDF or OWL. It extracts metadata for each discovered document, and computes relations between documents. Discovered documents are also indexed by an information retrieval system which can use either character N-Gram or URIrefs as keywords to find relevant documents and to compute the similarity among a set of documents. One of the interesting properties we compute is rank, a measure of the importance of a Semantic Web document.

"Introduction Yahoo! is the undisputed king of the Web directories, providing one of the key information navigation tools on the Internet. It has maintained its popularity over many Internet-years as the most visited Web site, against intense competition. This is because it does a good job of shifting, cataloguing and organising the Web [1] . But what would a map of Yahoo!'s hierarchical classification of the Web look like? Would an interactive map of Yahoo!, rather than the conventional listing of sites, be more useful as navigational tool? We can get some idea what a map of Yahoo! might be like by taking a look at ET-Map, a prototype developed by Hsinchun Chen and colleagues in the Artificial Intelligence Lab [2] at the University of Arizona. ET-Map was developed in 1995 as part of innovative research in automatic Internet homepage categorization and it charts a large chunk of Yahoo!, from the entertainment section representing some 110,000 different Web links. The map is a two-dimensional, multi-layered category map; its aim is to provide an intuitive visual information browsing tool. ET-Map can be browsed interactively, explored and queried, using the familiar point-and-click navigation style of the Web to find information of interest.
The View From Above Browsing for a particular piece on information on the Web can often feel like being stuck in an unfamiliar part of town walking around at street level looking for a particular store. You know the store is around there somewhere, but your viewpoint at ground level is constrained. What you really want is to get above the streets, hovering half a mile or so up in the air, to see the whole neighbourhood. This kind of birds-eye view function has been memorably described by David D. Clark, Senior Research Scientist at MIT's Laboratory for Computer Science and the Chairman of the Invisible Worlds Protocol Advisory Board, as the missing "up button" on the browser [3] . ET-Map is a nice example of a prototype for Clark's "up-button" view of an information space. The goal of information maps, like ET-Map, is to provide the browser with a sense of the lie of the information landscape, what is where, the location of clusters and hotspots, what is related to what. Ideally, this 'big-picture' all-in-one visual summary needs to fit on a single standard computer screen. ET-Map is one of my favourite examples, but there are many other interesting information maps being developed by other researchers and companies (see inset at the bottom of this page). How does ET-Map work? Here is a sequence of screenshots of a typical browsing session with ET-Map, which ends with access to Web pages on jazz musician Miles Davis. You can also tryout ET-Map for yourself, using a fully working demo on the AI Lab's website [4] . We begin with the top-level map showing forty odd broad entertainment 'subject regions' represented by regularly shaped tiles. Each tile is a visual summary of a group of Web pages with similar content. These tiles are shaded different colours to differentiate them, while labels identify the subject of the tile and the number in brackets telling you how many individual Web page links it contains. ET-Map uses two important, but common-sense, spatial concepts in its organisation and representation of the Web. Firstly, the 'subject regions' size is directly related to the number of Web pages in that category. For example, the 'MUSIC' subject area contains over 11,000 pages and so has a much larger area than the neighbouring area of 'LIVE' which only has 4,300 odd pages. This is intuitively meaningful, as the largest tiles are visually more prominent on the map and are likely to be more significant as they contain the most links. In addition, a second spatial concept, that of neighbourhood proximity, is applied so 'subject regions' closely related in term of content are plotted close to each other on the map. For example, 'FILM' and 'YEAR'S OSCARS', at the bottom left, are neighbours in both semantic and spatial space. This make senses as many things in the real-world are ordered in this way, with things that are alike being spatially close together (e.g. layout of goods in a store, or books in a library). Importantly, ET-Map is also a multi-layer map, with sub-maps showing greater informational resolution through a finer degree of categorization. So for any subject region that contains more than two hundred Web pages, a second-level map, with more detailed categories is generated. This subdivision of information space is repeated down the hierarchy as far as necessary. In the example, the user selected the 'MUSIC' subject region which, not surprisingly, contained many thousands of pages. A second-level map with numerous different music categories is then presented to the user. Delving deeper, the user wants to learn more about jazz music, so clicking on the 'JAZZ' tile leads to a third-level map, a fine-grained map of jazz related Web pages. Finally, selecting the 'MILES DAVIS' subject region leads to more a conventional looking ranking of pages from which the user selects one to download.
ET-Map was created using a sophisticated AI technique called Kohonen self-organizing map, a neural network approach that has been used for automatic analysis and classification of semantic content of text documents like Web pages. I do not pretend to fully understand how this technique works; I tend to think of it as a clever 'black-box' that group together things that are alike [5] . It is a real challenge to automatically classify pages from a very heterogeneous information collection like the Web into categories that will match the conceptions of a typical user. Directories like Yahoo! tend to rely on the skill of human editors to achieve this. ET-Map is an interesting prototype that I think highlights well the potential for a map-based approach to Web browsing. I am surprised none of the major search engines or directories have introduced the option of mapping results. Although, I am sure many are working on ideas. People certainly need all the help they get, as Web growth shows no sign of slowing. Just last month it was reported that the Web had surpassed one billion indexable pages [6].
Information Maps There are many other fascinating examples that employ two dimensional interactive maps to provide a 'birds-eye' view of information. They use various underlying techniques of textual analysis and clustering to turn the mass of information into a useful summary map (see "Mining in Textual Mountains" in Mappa.Mundi Magazine). In terms of visual representations they can be divided into two groups, those that generate smooth surfaces and those that produce regular, tiled maps. Unfortunately, we don't have space to examine them in detail, but they are well worth spending some time exploring. I will be covering some of them in future columns.

Abstract

The search giant is automatically building Knowledge Vault, a massive database that could give us unprecedented access to the world's facts GOOGLE is building the largest store of knowledge in human history - and it's doing so without any human help. Instead, Knowledge Vault autonomously gathers and merges information from across the web into a single base of facts about the world, and the people and objects in it.

Abstract

In this paper, we present Google, a prototype of a large-scale search engine which makes heavy use of the structure present in hypertext. Google is designed to crawl and index the Web efficiently and produce much more satisfying search results than existing systems. The prototype with a full text and hyperlink database of at least 24 million pages is available at http://google.stanford.edu/. To engineer a search engine is a challenging task. Search engines index tens to hundreds of millions of web pages involving a comparable number of distinct terms. They answer tens of millions of queries every day. Despite the importance of large-scale search engines on the web, very little academic research has been done on them. Furthermore, due to rapid advance in technology and web proliferation, creating a web search engine today is very different from three years ago. This paper provides an in-depth description of our large-scale web search engine -- the first such detailed public description we know of to date. Apart from the problems of scaling traditional search techniques to data of this magnitude, there are new technical challenges involved with using the additional information present in hypertext to produce better search results. This paper addresses this question of how to build a practical large-scale system which can exploit the additional information present in hypertext. Also we look at the problem of how to effectively deal with uncontrolled hypertext collections where anyone can publish anything they want

Abstract

The current web consists of documents that are highly heterogeneous and hard for machines to understand. The Semantic Web is a progressive movement of the Word Wide Web, aiming at converting the current web of unstructured documents to the web of data. In the Semantic Web, web documents are annotated with metadata using standardized ontology language. These annotated documents are directly processable by machines and it highly improves their usability and usefulness. In Ericsson, similar problems occur. There are massive documents being created with well-defined structures. Though these documents are about domain specific knowledge and can have rich relations, they are currently managed by a traditional search engine, which ignores the rich domain specific information and presents few data to users. Motivated by the Semantic Web, we aim to find standard ways to process these documents, extract rich domain specific information and annotate these data to documents with formal markup languages. We propose this project to develop a domain specific search engine for processing different documents and building explicit relations for them. This research project consists of the three main focuses: examining different domain specific documents and finding ways to extract their metadata; integrating a text search engine with an ontology server; exploring novel ways to build relations for documents. We implement this system and demonstrate its functions. As a prototype, the system provides required features and will be extended in the future.

Abstract

ChatGPT, die künstliche Intelligenz der Stunde, ist von OpenAI entwickelt worden. Und OpenAI ist in der Vergangenheit nicht unerheblich von Microsoft unterstützt worden. Nun geht es ums Profitieren: Die KI soll in die Suchmaschine Bing eingebaut werden, was eine direkte Konkurrenz zu Googles Suchalgorithmen und Intelligenzen bedeutet. Bing war da bislang nicht sonderlich erfolgreich. Wie "The Information" mit Verweis auf zwei Insider berichtet, plant Microsoft, ChatGPT in seine Suchmaschine Bing einzubauen. Bereits im März könnte die neue, intelligente Suche verfügbar sein. Microsoft hatte zuvor auf der hauseigenen Messe Ignite zunächst die Integration des Bildgenerators DALL·E 2 in seine Suchmaschine angekündigt - ohne konkretes Startdatum jedoch. Fragt man ChatGPT selbst, bestätigt der Chatbot seine künftige Aufgabe noch nicht. Weiß aber um potentielle Vorteile.
