Text retrieval and the relational model
نویسنده
چکیده
In this article, Macleod examines the suitability of the relational model in the context of storing and retrieving documents. The relational model is compared with other traditional models and their strengths and weaknesses are compared. Through out the article, Macleod largely compares the relational model against the text model. He states that ‘the terminology text model is used to refer to inverted file base systems.’ (Macleod)

Text database systems
A text database system, often called an information retrieval system, is designed to process a text model of the data, viewed as an ordered sequence of documents, paragraphs, sentences, words (i.e., as a list structure). Although relations are sets of tuples, and therefore unordered, the relational model can still be used successfully for text, but surprisingly it is shown that at the physical ...
متن کاملIntegrating INQUERY with an RDBMS to Support Text Retrieval
Information is a combination of structured data and unstructured data. Traditionally, relational database management systems (RDBMS) have been designed to handle structured data. IR systems can handle text (unstructured data) very well but are not designed to handle structured data. With present day information being a combination of structured and unstructured data, there is an increasing dema...
متن کاملImage retrieval using the combination of text-based and content-based algorithms
Image retrieval is an important research field which has received great attention in the last decades. In this paper, we present an approach for the image retrieval based on the combination of text-based and content-based features. For text-based features, keywords and for content-based features, color and texture features have been used. Query in this system contains some keywords and an input...
متن کاملA Comparison of Three Data Models for Text Storage and Retrieval Systems: The Relational Model Revisited
A number of software toolkits exist for the development of text storage and retrieval systems (TSARS). This study compares three data models applicable to such toolkits and discusses the suitability of one of them as the basis of a toolkit unifying all three data models. The three data models are: (1) the text model, also known as the inverted file approach, (2) the hypertext model, and (3) the...
متن کاملText Search Using Database Systems Revisited - Some Experiments
With the increasing availability of information in electronic form, the integration of textual data into database systems is becoming more and more important. Motivated by recent technology development, we describe how a preprocessor for simple text retrieval can be realised on top of a relational database system. This approach shows a surprisingly good performance compared to a commercially av...
