E-Librarian Service : User-Friendly Semantic Search in Digital Libraries Paperback / softback
by Serge Linckels, Christoph Meinel
Part of the X.media.publishing series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book introduces a new approach to designing E-Librarian Services.
With the help of this system, users will be able to retrieve multimedia resources from digital libraries more efficiently than they would by browsing through an index or by using a simple keyword search.
E-Librarian Services combine recent advances in multimedia information retrieval with aspects of human-machine interfaces, such as the ability to ask questions in natural language; they simulate a human librarian by finding and delivering the most relevant documents that offer users potential answers to their queries.
The premise is that more pertinent results can be retrieved if the search engine understands the meaning of the query; the returned results are therefore logical consequences of an inference rather than of keyword matches.
Moreover, E-Librarian Services always provide users with a solution, even in situations where they are unable to offer a comprehensive answer.
