Representing User Navigation in XML Retrieval with Structural Summaries
نویسندگان
چکیده
This poster presents a novel way to represent user navigation in XML retrieval using collection statistics from XML summaries. Currently, developing user navigation models in XML retrieval is costly and the models are specific to collected user assessments. We address this problem by proposing summary navigation models which describe user navigation in terms of XML summaries. We develop our proposal using assessments collected in the interactive track at INEX 2006. Our preliminary results suggest that summary navigation models can represent user navigation in a way that is effective for evaluation and allows economic re-use of assessments for new tasks and collections.

The Role of Structural Summaries for XML Retrieval
A Structural Summary of an XML document is a dynamically generated and maintained graph structure that preserves the structural characteristics of the document in a compact form. The versatility of structural summaries has been established with their extensive usage for diverse retrieval tasks. Within traditional XML query processing those structures have been used as primary indexes on the str...
متن کاملXML Structural Summaries
This tutorial introduces the concept of XML Structural Summaries and describes their role within XML retrieval. It covers the usage of those summaries for Database-style query processing and Information Retrieval-style search tasks in the context of both centralized and distributed environments. Finally, it discusses new retrieval scenarios that can potentially be favorably supported by those s...
متن کاملEfficient, Effective and Flexible XML Retrieval Using Summaries
Retrieval queries that combine structural constraints with keyword search are placing new challenges on retrieval systems. This paper presents TReX—a new retrieval system for XML. TReX can efficiently return either all the answers to a given query or only the top-k answers. In this paper, we discuss our participation in the annual Initiative for the Evaluation of XML Retrieval (INEX) workshop i...
متن کاملStructural summaries as a core technology for efficient XML retrieval
The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is extremely popular as a generic markup language for text documents with an explicit hierarchical structure. The different types of XML data found in today’s document repositories, digital libraries, intranets and on the web range from flat text with little meaningful structure to be queried, over truly semistructured data with a rich and often irregular st...
متن کاملEnhancing User Interaction and Efficiency with Structural Summaries for Fast and Intuitive Access to XML Databases
This paper describes an ongoing Ph.D. project whose goal is to improve both the user interaction and the efficiency of XML databases. Based on structural summaries for indexing and visualizing the structure of XML data, we describe a highly interactive, intuitive GUI targeted at non-experts, and present sophisticated algorithms and data structures for efficient query evaluation which enable a s...
