TLDR
Implementing a popular medical handbook in hypertext underscores the need to study hypertext in the context of full-text document retrieval, machine learning, and user interface issues.Abstract:
Medicine is an ideal domain for hypertext applications and research. Implementing a popular medical handbook in hypertext underscores the need to study hypertext in the context of full-text document retrieval, machine learning, and user interface issues.read more

Exploring the layers of information retrieval evaluation
TL;DR: The papers in this collection look at different issues in combining human-computer interaction (HCI) research with IR research and provide insights into the problems of evaluating the information seeking process.

WALT: a research environment for medical hypertext
TL;DR: The WALT hypertext interface can serve as a “front end” to a wide array of retrieval engines including those based on Bcmlean retrieval, latent semantic indexing, term frequency – inverse document frequency, and Bayesian inference techniques.

The Visual Book and the Hyper-TextBook: two electronic books one lesson?
TL;DR: Two separate studies into electronic book production are presented, providing a complete methodology on how to produce electronic books in a cheap and fast way, so that they are visually appealing and at the same provide the user with a set of desirable searching and browsing functionalities.
Early Prototypes of the Repository for Patterned Injury Data
TL;DR: The Repository for Patterned Injury Data (RPID) project is a proof-of-principle system for support-ing collaborative forensic medicine and an electronic informa-tion repository to support collaboration on medical cases in-volving patterned injuries.

TACHIR: a tool for the automatic construction of hypertexts for information retrieval
TL;DR: The paper describes the design and implementation of TACHIR, a prototype tool for the automatic construction of hypertexts for Information Retrieval, which builds up automatically an IR hypertext, a hypertext to be used for information retrieval, from a document collection, using a methodology that makes use of a set of well known Information retrieval techniques.

Fusion, propagation, and structuring in belief networks
TL;DR: It is shown that if the network is singly connected (e.g. tree-structured), then probabilities can be updated by local propagation in an isomorphic network of parallel and autonomous processors and that the impact of new information can be imparted to all propositions in time proportional to the longest path in the network.

Information needs in office practice: are they being met?
TL;DR: The self-reported information needs of 47 physicians during a half day of typical office practice were studied, and physicians raised 269 questions about patient management, related to all medical specialties and were highly specific to the individual patient's problem.

Connectionist expert systems
TL;DR: Connectionist networks can be used as expert system knowledge bases and can be constructed from training examples by machine learning techniques, giving a way to automate the generation of expert systems for classification problems.
