Arabic Information Retrieval reviews Arabic IR including the nature of the Arabic language, the techniques used for pre-processing the language, the latest research in Arabic IR in different domains, and the open areas in Arabic IR.

This is the first comprehensive overview of computational approaches to Arabic morphology. The subtitle aims to reflect that widely different computational approaches to the Arabic morphological system have been proposed. The book provides a showcase of the most advanced language technologies applied to one of the most vexing problems in linguistics. It covers knowledge-based and empirical-based approaches.

Class-tested and coherent, this textbook teaches classical and web information retrieval, including web search and the related areas of text classification and text clustering from basic concepts. It gives an up-to-date treatment of all aspects of the design and implementation of systems for gathering, indexing, and searching documents; methods for evaluating systems; and an introduction to the use of machine learning methods on text collections. All the important ideas are explained using examples and figures, making it perfect for introductory courses in information retrieval for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in computer science. Based on feedback from extensive classroom experience, the book has been carefully structured in order to make teaching more natural and effective. Slides and additional exercises (with solutions for lecturers) are also available through the book's supporting website to help course instructors prepare their lectures.

With the increased use of technology in modern society, high volumes of multimedia information exists. It is important for businesses, organizations, and individuals to understand how to optimize this data and new methods are emerging for more efficient information management and retrieval. Information Retrieval and Management: Concepts, Methodologies, Tools, and Applications is an innovative reference source for the latest academic material in the field of information and communication technologies and explores how complex information systems interact with and affect one another. Highlighting a range of topics such as knowledge discovery, semantic web, and information resources management, this multi-volume book is ideally designed for researchers, developers, managers, strategic planners, and advanced-level students.

This project designed to help performing sentences based search instead of matching keywords, results will be more accurate and similar to human comprehensive search result based.The project data based on Mysql database, written I Java programming language, based on number of IR libraries. The system spitted in two project (distributed System) as follow. The indexer project: which parsing the Mysql database to be processed by the Analyzer (tokenizing, filtering Steaming) then to store into an index file.The Searcher project which apply the input keyword to the same Analyzer applied for the indexer, then to be matched with the indexed file, then to return the matched data into Web-Pages.The IR system can return accurate search result that could ordered by percentage of relevant, thanks to using the Steamer module, by apply systematic roles on each word, to return it to its infinitive (grammatically), a new Steamer module was developed to support Arabic language, which is still a developing topic in the area of IR Systems the project implements a full object oriented design using some advanced design theories such MVC (Model View Control and DAO (Data Access Object), multi tier desi

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th Information Retrieval Societies Conference, AIRS 2014, held in Kuching, Malaysia, in December 2014. The 42 full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 110 submissions. Seven tracks were the focus of the AIR 2014 and they were IR models and theories; IR evaluation, user study and interactive IR; web IR, scalability and IR in social media; multimedia IR; natural language processing for IR; machine learning and data mining for IR and IR applications.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on String Processing and Information Retrieval, SPIRE 2005, held in Buenos Aires, Argentina in November 2005. The 27 revised full papers and 17 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 102 submissions. The papers address current issues in all aspects of string processing, information retrieval, pattern matching, computational biology, semi-structured data, and related applications.
