商品描述

Description

This will be the third edition of the highly successful Text Information Retrieval Systems. The book's purpose is to teach people who will be searching or designing text retrieval systems how the systems work. For designers, it covers problems they will face and reviews currently available solutions to provide a basis for more advanced study. For the searcher its purpose is to describe why such systems work as they do. The book is primarily about computer-based retrieval systems, but the principles apply to nonmechanized ones as well. The book covers the nature of information, how it is organized for use by a computer, how search functions are carried out, and some of the theory underlying these functions. As well, it discusses the interaction between user and system and how retrieved items, users, and complete systems are evaluated. A limited knowledge of mathematics and of computing is assumed.

This third edition will be updated to include coverage of the WWW and current search engines. In many cases, examples of non-web searching will be replaced with web-based illustrations. Coverage of interfaces, various features available to assist searchers, and areas in which search assistance is not available will also be covered. In addition, the book will have a web dimension which will include relevant material available online, to be used in conjunction with the text.

*Follow-up to the award winning 2nd Edition
*Focuses on computer-based sytem but basic principles can be applied to any information seeking context

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這是高度成功的《文本信息檢索系統》的第三版。該書的目的是教導那些將要搜索或設計文本檢索系統的人們如何運作這些系統。對於設計師來說,它涵蓋了他們將面臨的問題,並回顧了目前可用的解決方案,以提供進一步研究的基礎。對於搜索者來說,它的目的是描述為什麼這些系統能夠運作。該書主要涉及基於計算機的檢索系統,但這些原則也適用於非機械化的系統。該書涵蓋了信息的性質,以及計算機如何組織信息、執行搜索功能以及這些功能的理論基礎。此外,它還討論了用戶和系統之間的交互作用,以及如何評估檢索到的項目、用戶和完整系統。假設讀者對數學和計算機有一定的了解。

這本第三版將更新包括對網絡和當前搜索引擎的涵蓋。在許多情況下,非網絡搜索的示例將被基於網絡的示例取代。還將涵蓋界面、各種可用於幫助搜索者的功能以及無法提供搜索幫助的領域。此外,該書將具有網絡維度,其中包括在線可用的相關資料,可與文本一起使用。

*繼獲獎的第二版之後的續集
*專注於基於計算機的系統,但基本原則可應用於任何信息尋求的情境
