Building Hypertext Using Information Retrieval.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Allan, James – Information Processing & Management, 1997
Presents entirely automatic methods for gathering documents for a hypertext, for linking the set, and for annotating those connections with a description of the type (that is, the nature) of the link. Document linking is based on information retrieval similarity measures with adjustable levels of strictness. Evaluation problems are also…

Navigation via Similarity: Automatic Linking Based on Semantic Closeness.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Tudhope, Douglas; Taylor, Carl – Information Processing & Management, 1997
Discusses access methods in hypermedia and information retrieval and describes a research project in which similarity measures have been extended to include imprecise matching over different dimensions of structured classification schemes. The semantic similarity of information units forms the basis for the automatic construction of links and is…
