Forostar: A System for GIR
نویسندگان
چکیده
We detail our methods for generating and applying co-occurrence models for the purpose of placename disambiguation. We explain in detail our use of co-occurrence models for placename disambiguation using a model generated from Wikipedia. The presented system is split into two stages: a batch text & geographic indexer and a real time query engine. Four alternative query constructions and six methods of generating a geographic index are compared. The paper concludes with a full description of future work and ways in which the system could be optimised.

GIR Experiments with Forostar at GeoCLEF 2007
In this paper we describe our Geographic Information Retrieval experiments with Forostar, our GIR application on the GeoCLEF 2007 corpus and query set. We compare the results from orthogonal text with no geographic entities and only geographic entities with standard text retrieval and combined text and geographic relevance methods. The text and named entity analysis and retrieval methods of For...
متن کاملMMIS at GeoCLEF 2008: Experiments in GIR
In this paper we present our Geographic Information Retrieval System, Forostar, and the results of three experiments. We compare two data fusion methods, and show that a simple geographic filter outperforms a penalty based system. We compare context based disambiguation to a default gazetteer and show no significant difference. Finally we compare a unique geographic index to an ambiguous geogra...
متن کاملOn the Framework and Key Technologies of Modern Gir Systems
This paper intends to present a new conceptual framework for a modern GIR system as well as its related key technologies. In this research paper, existing GIR systems were surveyed and compared to find out the challenges we are facing in GIR and corresponding research needs in the future. New ideas on how to solve these existing problems are proposed in this paper, including a new system framew...
متن کاملHormone release and behavior during suckling and milking in Gir, Gir x Holstein, and Holstein cows.
There are several different milking management systems in Latin America, because Gir cattle are reputed to be easily stressed and not well adapted to machine-milking. This paper, therefore, provides an overview of hormone release and behavior during suckling and milking in Gir cows and their cross-bred offspring. Several experiments were performed to study oxytocin release during exclusive suck...
متن کاملOn a New Model and Algorithm to Estimate Geographical Similarity between Document and Query in Gir System
The usage of single geographical footprint model in existing Geographical Information Retrieval (GIR) system will cause many problems like overestimation or underestimation of the geographical scopes for documents to search. To be honest, the single geographical footprint model is not applicable in modern GIR system although it is simple, fast and widely applied today. In order to improve the q...
