ABSTRACT
We propose to demonstrate a web-based prototype system that integrates the meta-search approach with existing information analysis and visualization technologies to facilitate concept-based searching behavior over the medical domain. The system distinguishes itself from other meta-search engines through two features. It incorporates the co-occurrence analysis and existing ontology to understand user's query. It also utilizes the self-organizing map (SOM) to categorize and visualize search results.

In this paper ...
Examining the Authority and Ranking Effects as the result list depth used in data fusion is varied
The Authority and Ranking Effects play a key role in data fusion. The former refers to the fact that the potential relevance of a document increases exponentially as the number of systems retrieving it increases and the latter to the phenomena that ...
