This paper proposes a new referential model for data retrieval as an alternative to exact matching. While exact matching is an effective data retrieval model, it is based on fairly strict assumptions and limits our capabilities in data retrieval. This study redefines data retrieval to include non-binary data retrieval in addition to binary data retrieval, proposes Double Anchor Preference Model (DAPM), and analyzes its logical charateristics. DAPM supports non-binary data retrieval. Further, it produces the same result as exact matching for the conventional binary data retrieval. These findings show that, at the logical level, the proposed DAPM retains all the desirable features for data retrieval.

Retrieval effectiveness is the principal criteria for measuring the performance of an information retrieval system. This paper deals with the characteristics of 'relevance' of information and various measuring techniques of retrieval effectivess. The outlines of this study are as follows: 1) Relevance decision for evaluation should be devided into the user-oriented and the system-oriented decisions. 2) The recall-precision measure seems to be user-oriented, and the recall-fallout measure to be system-oriented. 3) Many of composite measures can not be justified III any rational manner unfortunately. 4) The Swets model has demonstrated that it yields, in general, a straight line instead of a curve of varying curvature and emphasized the fundamentally probabilistic nature of information retrieval. 5) The Cooper model seems to be a good substitute for precision and a useful measure for systems which ranked documents. 6) The Rocchio model were proposed for the evaluation of retreval systems which ranked documents, and were designed to be independent of cut-off. 7) The Cawkell model suggested that the Shannon's equation for entropy can be applied to measuring of retrieval effectiveness.

Content based Image retrieval methods in the multimedia information retrievals use primary visual features such as color, texture and shape. Color and texture generally are used as features of the image retrieval systems. But these systems may produce errors in similar image retrieval because two images with different shapes can represent very different contents. Therefore, the use of shape describing features is essential in an efficient content based image retrieval system. In this paper, after the global features filtering process by the boundary of objects, we have created a better shape similarity image retrieval system by a histogram of shape information.

In this paper, a representation method for structure information retrieval without schema and DTD of XML documents is presented. While existing researches have used DTD or schema to extract structure information, we extract structure information directly from XML documents. Especially the well-formed XML documents are only required to retrieve documents in the proposed method. Thus it can retrieve more general and various documents easily compared to the existing XML retrieval systems requiring DTD or schema. Experimental result indicates that the proposed method retrieves effectively structure information of XML documents independently to DTD information.

The advent of the Internet and the enormous increase in volume of electronically stored information (SGML, Image, Sound, etc.) has led to substantial work on IR(Information Retrieval). To service on the WWW, construction and retrieval technology of SGML, which is the fundamental standard data format for CALS/EC, is needed specially. Due to such a change, it becomes essential to change the existing paradigm of conventional information retrieval systems and to adopt new Internet service system with search engine, SGML browser and advanced Internet technology on WWW. KIPRIS(Korea Industrial Property Rights Information Service), which is the specialized and integrated Internet service systems in the field of industrial property rights information service, is trying to be a guide for our country to establish its technological competitiveness with providing the online service of high quality. The objective of the paper identifies features and technologies of KIPRIS IR(Information Retrieval) system based on WWW as follows. First, it describes the development background and process of KIPRIS. Second, it presents a fundamental technology that consists of IR(Information Retrieval) concept, BRS(Bibliographical Retrieval System) search engine, SGML implementation technologies and the Internet/WWW technologies. Third, it provides information about system configuration, architecture, and the features and characteristics of KIPRIS. Finally, the implemented KIPRIS system is introduced.

As technology in a computer hardware and software advances, efficient information retrieval from multimedia database gets highly demanded. Recently, it has been actively exploited to retrieve information based on the stored contents. However, most of the methods emphasize on the points which are far from human intuition or emotion. In order to overcome this shortcoming , this paper attempts to apply interactive genetic algorithm to content-based image retrieval. A preliminary result with subjective test shows the usefulness of this approach.

Current database systems are based on the assumption that a datum denotes the same meaning; however, in reality, the violation of this assumption is not unusual. Some data are created in such a way that they represent different sets of attribute values. The current research formulates this phenomenon as dissimilarities of derivation rules and defines multi-derived data as ones that are derived by multiple rules. For multi- derived data, this research proposes a new retrieval scheme and analyze its implication with relation to data retrieval.

A retrieval technique was defined as a technique for comparing the document representations. So this study classified retrieval technique in terms of the charactristics of the retrieved set of documents and the representations that are used. The distinction is whether the set of retrieved documents contains only documents whose representations are an exact match with the query, or a partial match with query. For a partial match, the set of retrieved document will include also those that are an exact match with the query. Boolean-logic as one of the exact match retrieval techniques is in current in most of the large operational information retrieval systems despite of its problems and limitatlons. Partial match as an alternative technique has also various problems. Existing information retrieval systems are successful in aSSisting the user whose needs are well- defined (e.g. Boolean-logic), to retrieve relevant documents but it should be successful in providing retrieval assistance to the browser whose information requirements is ill-defined.

The information overload with many information resources is an inevitable problem in modern electronic life. It is more difficult to search some information with user's information needs from an uncontrolled flood of many digital information resources, such as the internet which has been rapidly increased. So, many information retrieval systems have been researched and appeared. In text retrieval systems, they have met with user's information needs. While, in image retrieval systems, they have not properly dealt with user's information needs. In this paper, for resolving this problem, we proposed the intelligent user interface for image retrieval. It is based on HCOS(Human-Computer Symmetry) model which is a layed interaction model between a human and computer. Its' methodology is employed to reduce user's information overhead and semantic gap between user and systems. It is implemented with machine learning algorithms, decision tree and backpropagation neural network, for user adaptation capabilities of intelligent image retrieval system(IIRS).

This research deals with an order picking problem in automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS). When retrieval requests consist of multiple items and the items are in multiple stock locations, the storage/retrieval (S/R) machine must travel to numerous storage locations to complete each order. The aim of this research is to propose algorithms for the resolution of order picking problems with multiple stock locations to minimize the total time traveled by the S/R machine. We present and compare three alternatives for solving the problem based on enumeration, ordinary heuristic and genetic algorithms. We used a set of 180 different problems that are solved by these three algorithms. The results show that our proposed genetic algorithm is more efficient than the other two.
