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.

Expanding a hypertext information retrieval system to incorporate multimedia information

TL;DR: The development of a hypermedia information retrieval system that uses automatically-created text descriptors to obtain multimedia information retrieval capability, using text retrieval techniques is described.

Searching Multimedia Data using MPEG-7 Descriptions in a Broadcast Terminal

TL;DR: The development of methods for searching multimedia data using MPEG-7 in the context of the SAMBITS application, and, in particular, in the development of aSAMBITS terminal, is reported on.

Optimale Startpunkte zur Navigation in Hypermediasystemen - ein entscheidungstheoretischer Ansatz

TL;DR: Wir zeigen, das unter Verwendung eines entscheidungstheoretischen Modells der hierzu notwendige Rechenaufwand erheblich verringert werden kann and die Anzahl der dem Anwender prasentierten Einstiegspunkte in das Hypermediasystem a priori begrenzt werdes kann.

Device voice control for selecting a displayed affordance

TL;DR: In this paper, a system and processes for device voice control are described, where a spoken user input is interpreted to derive a representation of user intent and a task may be identified based on this representation.

Evaluation of a prototype interface for structured document retrieval

TL;DR: The results of the evaluation show that the RelevanceLinkBar interface supported users in their browsing behaviour, allowing them to find more relevant documents, and was strongly preferred over a standard results interface.

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.
