Towards Soundscape Information Retrieval (SIR)

چکیده
In this paper we discuss our efforts in Soundscape Information Retrieval (SIR). Computational soundscape analysis is a key research component in the Citygram Project which is built on a cyber-physical system that includes a scalable robust sensor network, remote sensing devices (RSD), spatio-acoustic visualization formats, as well as software tools for composition and sonification. By combining our research in soundscape studies, which includes the capture, collection, analysis, visualization and musical applications of spatio-temporal sound, we discuss our current research efforts that aim to contribute towards the development of soundscape information retrieval (SIR). This includes discussion of soundscape descriptors, soundscape taxonomy, annotation, and data analytics. In particular, we discuss one of our focal research agendas in measuring and quantifying urban noise pollution.

Social networks and information retrieval, how are they converging? A survey, a taxonomy and an analysis of social information retrieval approaches and platforms
There is currently a number of research work performed in the area of bridging the gap between Information Retrieval (IR) and Online Social Networks (OSN). This is mainly done by enhancing the IR process with information coming from social networks, a process called Social Information Retrieval (SIR). The main question one might ask is What would be the benefits of using social information (no ...
متن کاملNLP-SIR: A Natural Language Approach for Spreadsheet Information Retrieval
Spreadsheets are a ubiquitous software tool, used for a wide variety of tasks such as financial modelling, statistical analysis and inventory management. Extracting meaningful information from such data can be a difficult task, especially for novice users unfamiliar with the advanced data processing features of many spreadsheet applications. We believe that through the use of Natural Language P...
متن کاملSWAF: Towards a Web Application Framework for Composition and Documentation of Soundscape
In this paper, we suggest a conceptual model of a Web application framework for the composition and documentation of soundscape and introduce corresponding prototype projects, SeoulSoundMap and SoundScape Composer. We also survey the current Web-based sound projects in terms of soundscape documentation.
متن کاملDe la recherche sociale d'information à la recherche collaborative d'information
In this paper, we explain social information retrieval (SIR) and collaborative information retrieval (CIR). We see SIR as a way of knowing who to collaborate with in resolving an information problem while CIR entails the process of mutual understanding and solving of an information problem among collaborators. We are interested in the transition from SIR to CIR hence we developed a communicatio...
متن کاملExpected Ratio of Relevant Units: A Measure for Structured Information Retrieval
Since the 60’s, evaluation has been a key problem for Information Retrieval (IR) systems and has been extensively discussed in the IR community. New IR paradigms, like Structured Information Retrieval (SIR), make classical evaluation measures inappropriate. A few tentative extensions to these measures have been proposed but are also inadequate. We propose in this paper a new measure which is a ...
