THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT WAS TO DEVISE AN ALGORITHM FOR A STEM RECOGNITION PROGRAM DESIGNED TO SEARCH FOR THE ROOT OF ANY HEBREW WORD AS WELL AS TO DETECT INNER CHANGES ON THE GIVEN ROOT. SUCH AN ALGORITHM COULD BE USED IN LIBRARY CATALOGING AND IN CREATING INDEXES AND CONCORDANCES OF TEXTS IN THE HEBREW LANGUAGE. IN THIS STUDY THE HEBREW…

This Noun Reference Dictionary is divided into two sections: nouns derived from verb roots and those not so. The following features are noted in each entry: (1) class index; (2) occurrence in idiomatic expression; (3) part of speech; (4) declinability; (5) occurrence with prefixes "B,""K,""L," and "M," or…

This document comprises the second part of the pure nominal section of the Noun Reference Dictionary. See AL 002 267 for the first part, and AL 002 269 and AL 002 270 for the verb root-nominal sections. ED 019 668 and AL 002 296 contain a description of the project. (DO)

Describes an indexing technique based on overlapping word fragments as reference strings that are linked in a directed graph structure which makes possible exact match-, partial match-, and masked-partial match-retrieval and indicates search strategies for each case. Eight figures, two tables, and nine references are provided. (RBF)

This document comprises the first part of the section of the Noun Reference Dictionary concerned with nouns derived from verb roots. See AL 002 270 for Part II. The format of this section is the same as that described in AL 002 267 for the pure nominal section of the dictionary. Roots are indicated. For other related documents, see ED 019 668, AL…

Questions of the automation of input, output and data processing on computers in systems of information services are covered in the discussion of peculiarities of applied computers and processed information, general characteristics of processing algorithms and problems of information input and output. This is followed by a discussion of the…

Experiments were performed to determine the feasibility of using ALCAPP as one form of on-line dialogue. Assuming the ALCAPP (Automatic List Classification and Profile Production) system is in an on-line mode, investigations of those parameters which could affect its stability and reliability were conducted. Fifty-two full test documents were used…

THE INVESTIGATION IS CONCERNED WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF AUTOMATIC INDEXING, ABSTRACTING, AND EXTRACTING SYSTEMS. BASIC INVESTIGATIONS IN ENGLISH MORPHOLOGY, PHONETICS, AND SYNTAX ARE PURSUED AS NECESSARY MEANS TO THIS END. IN THE FIRST SECTION THE THEORY AND DESIGN OF THE "SENTENCE DICTIONARY" EXPERIMENT IN AUTOMATIC EXTRACTION IS OUTLINED. SOME OF…

Three specific contributions to the field of information retrieval are presented. The first two describe the establishment of an adaptive, interactive man-machine dialogue that produces a form of unsolicited librarian-like assistance for the user in his selection of index terms to characterize an indexing function. The data set upon which the…

The twenty-second in a series, this report describes research in information organization and retrieval conducted by the Department of Computer Science at Cornell University. The report covers work carried out during the period summer 1972 through summer 1974 and is divided into four parts: indexing theory, automatic content analysis, feedback…
