Modelling Hypermedia Retrieval in Datalog
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we take the logical approach to information retrieval in order to identify and describe new concepts required for performing hypermedia retrieval . For this purpose, we consider hypertext linking of nodes, hierarchical structure of documents and document type hierarchies. These concepts are described in Datalog, a horn logic without functions. Furthermore, we discuss terminological inference and propose a new approach for its application in retrieval, for which we also describe the mapping into Datalog formulas. It turns out that this logic is able to express most of the concepts, but that a higher-level language would be more appropriate for hypermedia retrieval.

Information Retrieval with Probabilistic Datalog
The probabilistic logical approach in Information Retrieval (IR) aims at describing the retrieval process as the computation of the probability P (d! q) that a document d implies a query q. Probabilistic Datalog (DatalogP ) is a logic that enables uncertain inference. We use DatalogP as a platform for investigating the probabilistic logical approach in IR. The expressiveness of DatalogP allows ...
متن کاملHySpirit - A Probabilistic Inference Engine for Hypermedia Retrieval in Large Databases
HySpirit is a retrieval engine for hypermedia retrieval integrating concepts from information retrieval (IR) and deductive databases. The logical view on IR models retrieval as uncertain inference, for which we use probabilistic reasoning. Since the expressiveness of classical IR models is not suucient for hypermedia retrieval, HySpirit is based on a probabilistic version of Datalog. In hyperme...
متن کاملUser Modelling for Information Retrieval from Multidatabases
The design options in resolving heterogeneous data source access from a single query, and for a supporting user modelling component are discussed. The MIPS system is used as an example to consider the role of user modelling in automatically generating hypermedia presentations of the information retrieved from such distributed data sources whose semantics are unknown to its users. A user modelli...
متن کاملModelling Probabilistic Inference Networks and Classification in Probabilistic Datalog
Probabilistic Graphical Models (PGM) are a well-established approach for modelling uncertain knowledge and reasoning. Since we focus on inference, this paper explores Probabilistic Inference Networks (PIN’s) which are a special case of PGM. PIN’s, commonly referred as Bayesian Networks, are used in Information Retrieval to model tasks such as classification and ad-hoc retrieval. Intuitively, a ...
متن کاملAdaptive Performance Support for Fault Diagnosis
This paper introduces a strategy, a user model, and a methodology for utilising adaptive hypermedia in performance support domain and specifically for fault diagnosis. This utilisation is implemented by employing task-specific and user-centred hypermedia which allows supporting content to be synchronized with the diagnostic expert system inference process. A stereotype user model is suggested i...
