The significances of this paper are of two points. One is that this research develops the query expansion search by adding the related terms based on the dictionary to the original query terms. This method shortens the process of the conventional model of query expansion utilizing the feedback data of the search. The other is that this research tries to find out the optimal point of precisions and recalls by differentiating the weight ratio between original quay and additional terms. This method shows that the efficiency and precision of query expansion search increase.

The purpose of this study is to understand and analyze the satisfaction level of users regarding the search and search results of D College Library system implemented by Open API. For the study, 90 students of D College searched the library system with 4 subjects regarding on current affairs and assignments, and then evaluated the satisfaction on search functionality and contents usability. In results, they satisfied search expansion in general. Especially, the satisfaction levels for the convenience of search method and preview was the highest, but that of level for the arrangement and browsing of search results and the searching speed was the lowest. In terms of currentness, relevance, usefulness and utilizability aspects, Naver was the most highly evaluated, followed by library’s database, dissertation/academic journals, Youtube and Flikr. The cause of the unsatisfactory could be reduced when the library system implements the useful and attractive search interface.

This paper presents a two- phase search scheme for optimal pipe expansion of expansion of existing water distribution systems. In pipe network problems, link flows affect the total cost of the system because the link flows are not uniquely determined for various pipe diameters. The two-phase search scheme based on stochastic optimization scheme is suggested to determine the optimal link flows which make the optimal design of existing pipe network. A sample pipe network is employed to test the proposed method. Once the best tree network is obtained, the link flows are perturbed to find a near global optimum over the whole feasible region. It should be noted that in the perturbation stage the loop flows obtained form the sample existing network are employed as the initial loop flows of the proposed method. It has been also found that the relationship of cost-hydraulic gradient for pipe expansion of existing network affects the total cost of the sample network. The results show that the proposed method can yield a lower cost design than the conventional design method and that the proposed method can be efficiently used to design the pipe expansion of existing water distribution systems.

For semantic search methods to provide more accurate results than keyword-based search in a logical representation that uses a knowledge base are being studied. Than most of the user to use formal query language and schema used to interpret the meaning of a user keyword. In this paper, we propose to expand the user query for semantic search. In the proposed system, user query expansion component and a component to adjust the results to interpret user queries to take advantage of the knowledge base associated with a search term. Finally, a user query semantic interpretation, the proposed scheme to verify the experimental results of the prototype system is described.

To increase their market shares and grow continuously, it is very important for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to expand their markets. Although various factors may influence an SME's effort to cultivate a new market, this research focused on activities related to the search and utilization of external knowledge. After conducting Tobit analysis based on the dataset of 959 Korean SMEs included in the 2010 Korean Innovation Survey, we found that external knowledge search and utilization activities positively affect the market expansion of SMEs. This result has two implications: (1) SMEs should actively search for appropriate external knowledge sources with which they can expand their markets and reduce their dependence on internal R&D activities; and (2) they should implement an efficient corporate system to effectively absorb and utilize external knowledge inside the firms. Despite these contributions, this research has its shortcoming in that it utilized a cross-sectional dataset, which can be further analyzed by incorporating the dataset from previous and future periods.

High-quality image datasets are in high demand for various applications. With many online sources providing manually collected datasets, a persisting challenge is to fully automate the dataset collection process. In this study, we surveyed an automatic image dataset generation field through analyzing a collection of existing studies. Moreover, we examined fields that are closely related to automated dataset generation, such as query expansion, web scraping, and dataset quality. We assess how both noise and regional search engine differences can be addressed using an automated search query expansion focused on hypernyms, allowing for user-specific manual query expansion. Combining these aspects provides an outline of how a modern web scraping application can produce large-scale image datasets.

This paper presents an application of heuristic approach to problem of designing reliable network expansion. The problem essentially consists in finding the network topology that satisfies given set of reliability constraints. To efficiently solve the problem, a scatter search approach is proposed. The results of the two experiments show that scatter search is a more suitable approach for finding a good solution or near optimal solution in comparison with genetic algorithm.

This study analyses the researches on automatic query modification, expansion and combination based on search results of natural language queries and gives a conceptual framework for the factors affecting the effectiveness of the relevance feedback. The operating and experimental systems based on the vector space model, the binary independence model and the inference net model are reviewed, and it is found that the effectiveness of query expansion is affected by conceptual models, algorithms for weighting terms and documents and selecting query terms to be added, size of relevant and non-relevant documents to be used and size of terms to be added in relevance feedback, query length, type and size of DBs, etc.

If XML queries are expanded based on ontology, broader search may be possible. On the other hand, queries that are not adequate to target documents may also degrade the search efficiency. We try to improve query adequacy by expanding query based on a reduced ontology, which is the result of ontology and target DTD match. The match considers ontology concepts and DTD elements as well as ontology and DTD attributes. Since the reduced ontology can improve the hit ratio of queries and also be successively reusable for XML documents of a kind, the proposed method can improve XML search efficiency.

The cost of a looped pipe network is affected by a set of loop flows. The mathematical model for optimizing the looped pipe network is expressed in the optimal set of loop flows to apply to a stochastic optimization method. Because the feasible region of the looped pipe network problem is nonconvex with multiple local optima, the Modified Stochastic Probing Method is suggested to efficiently search the feasible region. The method consists of two phase: i) a global search phase(the stochastic probing method) and ii) a local search phase(the nearest neighbor method). While the global search sequentially improves a local minimum, the local search escapes out of a local minimum trapped in the global search phase and also refines a final solution. In order to test the method, a standard test problem from the literature is considered for the optimal design of the paralled expansion of an existing network. The optimal solutions thus found have significantly smaller costs than the ones reported previously by other researchers.
