dc.description.abstract |
such as Geographic Information Systems (CIS), because accurate information of geographic data a spat,ally
distributed and vast in volume. The challenge is to improve the process of information retrieval, which can be applied
to varying contexts such as GIS, going beyond the limits imposed by the knowledge base centric approaches. Social
networks possess a vast amount of unstructured knowledge in its user base, which can be use in a awing interesting
patterns, if analyzed in a systematic approach. In this paper, we emphasize on an approach for information search and
retrieval, bv combining the social network of human intelligence and knowledge bases of information. Users of the
system can present natural language queries, and questions be directed to relevant experts within the social
network. Distributed information retrieval and information fusion is applied to optimize the process oj single answer
generation. The feasibility of our proposed architecture is investigated by implementing a QA(Question Answering)
system on a social network as a proof of concept. The Question Answering System is based on geogi aphic queries
which will be directed to relevant users within the network to gather answers. Varying methods of information fusion
and Natural Language Processing have been researched and discussed to discover the suitable approaches for
generation. With the wide acceptance of the social networking paradigm and sharing of information, this approach
be extended to other domains as well. |
