Growing abundance of information on the Internet, especially the Next Generation Internet, poses even more challenges on more efficient information management; hence it has brought attention of the researchers to the faceted navigation. Existing solutions, however, do not address the majority of users, who are still inexperienced in using the faceted navigation solutions or who do not understan...

A variational model introduced by Spencer and Tersoff (Appl. Phys. Lett. 96:073114, 2010) to describe optimal faceted shapes of epitaxially deposited films is studied analytically in the case in which there are a non-vanishing crystallographic miscut and a lattice incompatibility between the film and the substrate. Existence of faceted minimizers for every volume of the deposited film is establ...

We are building a system that improves browsing and searching access to a large, growing collection by supporting users to build a faceted (multiperspective) classification schema collaboratively. The system is targeted in particular to collections of photographs and images that, in general, have few textual metadata. Our system allows users to build and maintain a faceted classification schema...

Background The older adults who are in the middle of health and disability called frail because they vulnerable to disability. Although relationship between chronic diseases frailty has been reported through a number previous studies, latest studies examining prevalence based on multifaceted factors limited. Method In this study, data from 5th Survey Living Conditions Older study conducted 2020...

Existing information retrieval systems provide users with limited support for efficient navigation in large semantically enriched information spaces. Several possible solutions were proposed, such as using faceted metadata search or semantic clusters of search results. We explore the possibilities of using enhanced faceted navigation with support for personalization, collaboration and Semantic ...

We propose a faceted classification scheme for web queries. Unlike previous work, our functional scheme ties its classification to actionable strategies for search engines to take. Our scheme consists of four facets of ambiguity, authority sensitivity, temporal sensitivity and spatial sensitivity. We hypothesize that the classification of queries into such facets yields insight on user intent a...

Faceted search is the de facto approach for exploration of data in e-commerce: it allows users to construct queries in an intuitive way without a prior knowledge of formal query languages. This approach has been recently adapted to the context of RDF. Existing faceted search systems however do not allow users to construct queries with aggregation and recursion which poses limitations in practic...

This paper describes our participation in the faceted blog distillation task at Blog Track 2010. In our approach, indri toolkit is applied for basic topic relevance retrieval. Then the Maximum Entropy (ME) model is adopted to judge the relevance of each blog to specified facet. Feed faceted relevance is calculated by integrating the average relevance of all blogs within a feed and the average r...

A novel methodology for designing microfluidic channels for lowdispersion, electrokinetic flows is presented. The technique uses simple trigonometric relations that apply for ideal electrokinetic flows, allowing channels to be designed using a hand calculator. Nloreover, channels are easily constructed using common planar manufacturing techniques. Close agreement is observed for particle path l...
