Model-based Information Retrieval System
Information retrieval System (IRS) is often defined as the location and delivery of documents to a user to satisfy their information needs. IR is the area of study concerned with searching for documents, for information within documents, and for metadata about documents, as well as that of searching structured storage, relational databases, and the worldwide web. There is an overlap in the usage of the terms data retrieval, document retrieval, information retrieval, and text retrieval. IR is interdisciplinary; based on computer science, mathematics, library science, information science, information architecture, cognitive psychology, linguistics, statistics and law. Automated information retrieval systems are used to reduce what has been called information overload. Many universities and public libraries use IR system to provide access to books, journals and other documents. Web search engines are the most visible IR applications. This article is the design and implementation of information retrieval system that deals with this aspect of the institution’s administration by providing an easy to use computerized application to assist in retrieving information
Quranic Concordance for Bibliotherapy based on Blood Group Types
Quranic concordance is in existence, but does not focus specifically on Quranic bibliotherapy. The aims of this study are to organize information on Quranic verses for bibliotherapy purposes and to find patterns of context in indexing to build a retrieval system in Quranic bibliotherapy concordance. This research uses qualitative approach with Grounded Theory method, using Nvivo to perform thematic data analysis based on narrative patterns, translation, spontaneously obtained verses, problem contexts and reflections. These concordances are limited to empirically emerging patterns representing biological information of the blood type which contribute new knowledge in Library and Information Science (LIS) discipline.
Keywords: Quranic bibliotherapy, blood type, concordance, information management

An architecture for life-long user modelling
In this paper, we propose a united architecture for the creation of life-long user profiles. Our architecture combines different steps required for a user prole, including feature extraction and representation, reasoning, recommendation and presentation. We discuss various issues that arise in the context of life-long profiling
Modeling social information skills
In a modern economy, the most important resource consists in\ud
human talent: competent, knowledgeable people. Locating the right person for\ud
the task is often a prerequisite to complex problem-solving, and experienced\ud
professionals possess the social skills required to find appropriate human\ud
expertise. These skills can be reproduced more and more with specific\ud
computer software, an approach defining the new field of social information\ud
retrieval. We will analyze the social skills involved and show how to model\ud
them on computer. Current methods will be described, notably information\ud
retrieval techniques and social network theory. A generic architecture and its\ud
functions will be outlined and compared with recent work. We will try in this\ud
way to estimate the perspectives of this recent domain
Multi-layer Architecture For Storing Visual Data Based on WCF and Microsoft SQL Server Database
In this paper we present a novel architecture for storing visual data.
Effective storing, browsing and searching collections of images is one of the
most important challenges of computer science. The design of architecture for
storing such data requires a set of tools and frameworks such as SQL database
management systems and service-oriented frameworks. The proposed solution is
based on a multi-layer architecture, which allows to replace any component
without recompilation of other components. The approach contains five
components, i.e. Model, Base Engine, Concrete Engine, CBIR service and
Presentation. They were based on two well-known design patterns: Dependency
Injection and Inverse of Control. For experimental purposes we implemented the
SURF local interest point detector as a feature extractor and -means
clustering as indexer. The presented architecture is intended for content-based
retrieval systems simulation purposes as well as for real-world CBIR tasks.Comment: Accepted for the 14th International Conference on Artificial

An Effective Private Data storage and Retrieval System using Secret sharing scheme based on Secure Multi-party Computation
Privacy of the outsourced data is one of the major challenge.Insecurity of
the network environment and untrustworthiness of the service providers are
obstacles of making the database as a service.Collection and storage of
personally identifiable information is a major privacy concern.On-line public
databases and resources pose a significant risk to user privacy, since a
malicious database owner may monitor user queries and infer useful information
about the customer.The challenge in data privacy is to share data with
third-party and at the same time securing the valuable information from
unauthorized access and use by third party.A Private Information Retrieval(PIR)
scheme allows a user to query database while hiding the identity of the data
retrieved.The naive solution for confidentiality is to encrypt data before
outsourcing.Query execution,key management and statistical inference are major
challenges in this case.The proposed system suggests a mechanism for secure
storage and retrieval of private data using the secret sharing technique.The
idea is to develop a mechanism to store private information with a highly
available storage provider which could be accessed from anywhere using queries
while hiding the actual data values from the storage provider.The private
information retrieval system is implemented using Secure Multi-party
Computation(SMC) technique which is based on secret sharing. Multi-party
Computation enable parties to compute some joint function over their private
inputs.The query results are obtained by performing a secure computation on the
shares owned by the different servers.Comment: Data Science & Engineering (ICDSE), 2014 International Conference,

Improving Knowledge Retrieval in Digital Libraries Applying Intelligent Techniques
Nowadays an enormous quantity of heterogeneous and distributed information is stored in the digital University. Exploring online collections to find knowledge relevant to a user’s interests is a challenging work. The artificial intelligence and Semantic Web provide a common framework that allows knowledge to
be shared and reused in an efficient way. In this work we propose a comprehensive approach for discovering E-learning objects in large digital collections based on analysis of recorded semantic metadata in those objects and the application of expert system technologies. We have used Case Based-Reasoning
methodology to develop a prototype for supporting efficient retrieval knowledge from online repositories.
We suggest a conceptual architecture for a semantic search engine. OntoUS is a collaborative effort that
proposes a new form of interaction between users and digital libraries, where the latter are adapted to users
and their surroundings
Enhanced Trustworthy and High-Quality Information Retrieval System for Web Search Engines
The WWW is the most important source of information. But, there is no guarantee for information correctness and lots of conflicting information is retrieved by the search engines and the quality of provided information also varies from low quality to high quality. We provide enhanced trustworthiness in both specific (entity) and broad (content) queries in web searching. The filtering of trustworthiness is based on 5 factors – Provenance, Authority, Age, Popularity, and Related Links. The trustworthiness is calculated based on these 5 factors and it is stored thereby increasing the performance in retrieving trustworthy websites. The calculated trustworthiness is stored only for static websites. Quality is provided based on policies selected by the user. Quality based ranking of retrieved trusted information is provided using WIQA (Web Information Quality Assessment) Framework
