Abstract: Today’s digital libraries are content rich, multimedia, multilingual collections that are distributed and accessed worldwide. Digital libraries’ interfaces are playing a crucial role in helping users to achieve an easy and effective access to the information that they need. Visual interfaces represent one of the most exciting areas of research and development in digital libraries. Visual interfaces to digital libraries aim to reduce the user’s cognitive load by capitalizing on our powerful perceptual abilities. Research in visual interfaces has a strong connection to the fast-moving field of Information Visualization. Information Visualization Information visualization is interdisciplinary in nature, involving computer graphics, electronic engineering, information systems, geography, information science, just to name a few. It has been seen to have a tremendous potential of improving the way we access, process, and manage information. Information Visualization is a process of transforming and representing a wide variety of data, especially non-spatial and non-numerical data, in a visual form so as to help users to understand the information. It uses computer-supported, interactive, visual representations of

Data cleansing for Web information retrieval using query independent features
TL;DR: It is found that there exists a large proportion of low-quality Web pages in both the English and the Chinese Web page corpus, and retrieval target pages can be identified using query-independent features and cleansing algorithms.
Mining opinions from the Web: Beyond relevance retrieval
Lun-Wei Ku,Hsin-Hsi Chen +1 more
TL;DR: To demonstrate and evaluate the proposed opinion mining algorithms, news and bloggers' articles are adopted and positive and negative sentiment words and their weights are mined on the basis of Chinese word structures.

TL;DR: The workshop in 2002 continues the theme started at JCDL 2001 and draws on progress in the new field of Information Visualization, as well as addressing some of the issues addressed last year.
Opinion mining and relationship discovery using CopeOpi opinion analysis system
TL;DR: CopeOpi, an opinion-analysis system, which extracts from the Web opinions about specific targets, summarizes the polarity and strength of these opinions, and tracks opinion variations over time, shows that opinion-based and collocation-based models complement each other, and that integrated models perform the best.

Metadata-enhanced visual interfaces to digital libraries
TL;DR: This study examined 21 metadata-enhanced digital library visual interfaces to demonstrate that the combined use of visualization techniques and metaphors is becoming increasingly prevalent as a design strategy to support users' information exploration and suggest that visual interfaces enhanced with metadata are becoming more widespread to provide a richer representation of digital collections.

An introduction to latent semantic analysis
TL;DR: The adequacy of LSA's reflection of human knowledge has been established in a variety of ways, for example, its scores overlap those of humans on standard vocabulary and subject matter tests; it mimics human word sorting and category judgments; it simulates word‐word and passage‐word lexical priming data.

Surround-screen projection-based virtual reality: the design and implementation of the CAVE
Carolina Cruz-Neira,Daniel J. Sandin,Thomas A. DeFanti +2 more
- 01 Sep 1993
TL;DR: This paper demonstrates that projection technology applied to virtual-reality goals achieves a system that matches the quality of workstation screens in terms of resolution, color, and flicker-free stereo, and demonstrates that this format helps reduce the effect of common tracking and system latency errors.
