This volume critically evaluates the present state of research in the domain of inferences in text processing and indicates new areas of research.The book is structured around the following theoretical aspects: - The representational aspect is concerned with the cognitive structure produced by the processed text, e.g. the social, spatial, and motor characteristics of world knowledge. - The procedural aspect investigates the time relationships on forming inferences, e.g. the point of time at which referential relations are constructed. - The contextual aspect reflects the dependence of inferences on the communicative embedding of text processing, e.g. on factors of modality and instruction.
This Book Aims At Helping The Reader Develop A Clear Under- Standing Of Text Retrieval Systems, Including Its Nature And Characteristics; Steps To Be Followed In Developing A Text Retrieval System; Software Packages Available For The Purpose; Guidelines For Choosing An Appropriate Software, And So On. To Make The Text Suitable For All Kinds Of Readers, Chapters And The Basics Of Database Technology, Database Management, And File Structures Appropriate For Text Retrieval Systems Have Been Provided. This Book Also Discusses The Major Features Of Library Management Systems (Lmss), The Software Packages Used For Automating Library House-Keeping Operations.The Trend Is To Developing Systems Which Can Provide The Actual Information Sought By The Use Rather Than Reference To The Information Sources Or Part Of The Text Where The Search Term Appears. Such Systems Apply Expert Systems And Natural Language Processing Techniques, And Are Called Knowledge-Based Systems (Kbss). This Book Describes Features Of These Systems And Mentions Some Of The Applications Of Kbss In Library And Information Activities.
Once again the wide-ranging and rapid developments in microcomputer technology of the last few years have meant that a detailed revision of The librarian's guide to microcomputers for information management was required, if it was to fulfil its objectives of providing a single source of information on the process of automating with a microcomputer. For this new edition, we have taken into account not only the developments in hardware, but also the growing sophistication and power of software, and the growing sophistication of library and information service managers. The latter are more and more familiar with the use, or at least the principles, of microcomputers, and it no longer seems nece...
The volume contains revised versions of papers presented at the 15th Annual Meeting of the "Gesellschaft f}r Klassifika- tion". Papers were arranged in the following three parts which were the main streams of discussion during the confe- rence: 1. Data Analysis, Classification 2. Data Modeling, Knowledge Processing, 3. Applications, Special Subjects. New results on developing mathematical and statistical methods allowing quantitative analysis of data are reported on. Tools for representing, modeling, storing and processing da- ta and knowledge are discussed. Applications in astro-phycics, archaelogy, biology, linguistics, and medicine are presented.
In science, industry, public administration and documentation centers large amounts of data and information are collected which must be analyzed, ordered, visualized, classified and stored efficiently in order to be useful for practical applications. This volume contains 50 selected theoretical and applied papers presenting a wealth of new and innovative ideas, methods, models and systems which can be used for this purpose. It combines papers and strategies from two main streams of research in an interdisciplinary, dynamic and exciting way: On the one hand, mathematical and statistical methods are described which allow a quantitative analysis of data, provide strategies for classifying objec...

Die Beiträge behandeln aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln einen durch die Begriffe Sozialwissenschaft-Informatik-Information abgegrenzten, interdisziplinären Themenkomplex. Gerade in den Sozialwissenschaften haben die qualitative Textinterpretation und die Suche nach typischen, einzelnen Fällen ihren festen Stellenwert, und automatische Informationssuche und Informationsaufbereitung sind zu unverzichtbaren Forschungsinstrumenten geworden. Dieser Band enthält eine Vielzahl von Fachbeiträgen, die im Rahmen entsprechender Spezialveranstaltungen entstanden sind oder eigens für diesen Band geschrieben wurden. Sowohl als Einführungen wie auch im Rahmen spezieller Fragestellungen werden Ansätze aus den Gebieten künstliche Intelligenz, Bilderkennung, Kommunikationsnetze, Hypertext, Szientometrie, Bibliometrie u. a., jeweils mit Bezug auf sozialwissenschaftliche Anwendung, vorgestellt.
