Abstract: WWW search engines or surfing tools provide users with catalogues or indexes on the Internet and different ways of searching these catalogues or indexes. There is as yet no standard operation for search tools so that users have to understand the way each one works to use them effectively. Describes, compares and evaluates some of these tools including Infoseek, Lycos, OpenText, WebCrawler, Yahoo!, AltaVista, Inktomi, Excite, Magellan, GAIS, and YAM

Abstract: In order to test the power of metadata on information retrieval, an experiment was designed and conducted on a group of 7 graduate students using the Dublin Core as the cataloguing metadata. Results show that, on average, the retrieval error rate is only 2.9 per cent for the MES system (http://140.136.85.194), which utilizes the Dublin Core to describe the documents on the World Wide Web, in contrast to 20.7 per cent for the 7 famous search engines including HOTBOT, GAIS, LYCOS, EXCITE, INFOSEEK, YAHOO, and OCTOPUS. The very low error rate indicates that the users can use the information of the Dublin Core to decide whether to retrieve the documents or not

Abstract

Identifies 6 types of searches on the basis of paudsing behaviour by using cluster analysis. The 6 types of search were highly associated with search fleuncy and the construction of a mental model. Examines learning during multiple searches on the basis of the 6 types. Finds that searchers gain more experience, increase their searching proficiency and become more fluent at searching while online. The changes of search level in multiple searches showed that most searchers moved towards greater fleuncy

Abstract

Attempts to investigate situational variables which can affect the results of relevance judgements, including computer experience, search experience, familiarity with search topic, preparation time, research objecttives, and research stages. The results show only the search experience will affect relevance judgements. Concerning research objectives, students writing term papers yield less relevance odds but a higher precision rate. concerning research stage, searchers in the early research stage yield more relevance odds and a higher precision rate

Abstract

Uses an information processing approach to analyse the behaviour of end users in searching online bibliographic databases, with particular emphasis on errors made. Following instruction in online searching, 41 students and 3 faculty end users conducted 79 subject searches. Analysis of search transcripts identified 119 reasons for errors. Errors occured most frequently in connection with functions, moves, and elements of 'create and develop sets' and 'display and print records'. Surprisingly, the results do not indicate that end users make errors less frequently as they gain more experience and practice, although syntax-related errors do decrease with time

Abstract

One of the major causes of search failures in information retrieval systems is vocabulary mismatch. Presents a solution to the vocabulary problem through 2 strategies known as term suggestion (TS) and term relevance feedback (TRF). In TS, collection specific terms are extracted from the text collection. These terms and their frequencies constitute the keyword database for suggesting terms in response to users' queries. One effect of this term suggestion is that it functions as a dynamic directory if the query is a general term that contains broad meaning. In term relevance feedback, terms extracted from the top ranked documents retrieved from the previous query are shown to users for relevance feedback. In the experiment, interactive TS provides very high precision rates while achieving similar recall rates as n-gram matching. Local TRF achieves improvement in both precision and recall rate in a full text news database and degrades slightly in recall rate in bibliographic databases due to the very limited source of information for feedback. In terms of Rijsbergen's combined measure of recall and precision, both TS and TRF achieve better performance than n-gram matching, which implies that the greater improvement in precision rate compensates the slight degradation in recall rate for TS and TRF
