Abstract:
The profusion of non-relevant information for a given query on the Web explains the pressing need for formulating ebullient strategies for pertinent Web resource discovery and retrieval. One of the major requirements for effective document retrieval is its diligently encoded metadata. At the same time metadata standards to be followed for annotating documents from large collections are pretty complex. This is because the standardized global metadata cannot represent all the elusive forms of document metadata for improved retrieval ranking. In this context, we propose an approach to facilitate document retrieval from multidisciplinary domains where each belonging to discrete domains would be indexed in a segregated instance of a repository. This would facilitate document metadata customization for each specific discipline by adding specific metadata themes. Since the approach retains the standard metadata schema in addition to the customized metadata schema, it would result in enhanced...
