On designing an oral history search system

AN EFFICIENT CHARGED SYSTEM SEARCH USING CHAOS

The Charged System Search (CSS) is combined to chaos to solve mathematical global optimization problems. The CSS is a recently developed meta-heuristic optimization technique inspired by the governing laws of physics and mechanics. The present study introduces chaos into the CSS in order to increase its global search mobility for a better global optimization. Nine chaos-based CSS (CCSS) methods...

Designing an Integrated Bookmark / History System for Web Browsing

In theory, these mechanisms should be heavily used, for almost 60% of all pages a person visits are to ones that they had seen previously [Tauscher and Greenberg 1997]. Yet research indicates several problems with these mechanisms. While Back is heavily used, people have an incorrect model of how it works, which leads to surprises when justvisited pages are no longer reachable [Cockburn and Jon...

Operational Assessment of Keyword Search on Oral History

This project assesses the resources necessary to make oral history searchable by means of automatic speech recognition (ASR). There are many inherent challenges in applying ASR to conversational speech: smaller training set sizes and varying demographics, among others. We assess the impact of dataset size, word error rate and term-weighted value on human search capability through an information...

Designing an Effective Enterprise Search Solution

The Google Search Appliance provides quite a few traditionally requested enterprise search features out-of-the-box (OOTB). Even though the appliance fits the hardware plug-and-play model, it provides a flexible framework for integrating with external systems such as content management systems, document management systems, security systems, federated search and both Google and non-Google service...
