Survey on Managing XML Search through Personalization
Information Retrieval IR based on keyword on web has become very significant and XML has become the widely used format for sharing of information. The number of resources of information has increased significantly and retrieval of correct data according to user preference may not be achieved efficiently. In order to improve the search of XML documents according to the user requirement and preference we use personalized search based on user preference stored as an XML. The problem in personalized search is in identifying the correct preferences based on the search text. In this paper we have done a survey of papers related to XML search and personalization. From this survey we have come up with a proposed solution, to store the user preferences with keywords and sub preferences as an XML document and related text as keywords. To identify the user preferences based on the query the user preference XML is loaded. The user preference nodes related to the keyword is identified and ranked based ranking function of top k algorithm. The documents will now be listed based on keyword and also based on keyword and preference node combination. The relevance status value of the resulting documents will be identified in both the search and the final search result will be listed by considering the RSV value using the re-ranking strategies.

Reasoning & Querying – State of the Art
Various query languages for Web and Semantic Web data, both for practical use and as an area of research in the scientific community, have emerged in recent years. At the same time, the broad adoption of the internet where keyword search is used in many applications, e.g. search engines, has familiarized casual users with using keyword queries to retrieve information on the internet. Unlike this easy-to-use querying, traditional query languages require knowledge of the language itself as well as of the data to be queried. Keyword-based query languages for XML and RDF bridge the gap between the two, aiming at enabling simple querying of semi-structured data, which is relevant e.g. in the context of the emerging Semantic Web. This article presents an overview of the field of keyword querying for XML and RDF
Term-Specific Eigenvector-Centrality in Multi-Relation Networks
Fuzzy matching and ranking are two information retrieval techniques widely used in web search. Their application to structured data, however, remains an open problem. This article investigates how eigenvector-centrality can be used for approximate matching in multi-relation graphs, that is, graphs where connections of many different types may exist. Based on an extension of the PageRank matrix, eigenvectors representing the distribution of a term after propagating term weights between related data items are computed. The result is an index which takes the document structure into account and can be used with standard document retrieval techniques. As the scheme takes the shape of an index transformation, all necessary calculations are performed during index tim
Towards improving web service repositories through semantic web techniques
The success of the Web services technology has brought topicsas software reuse and discovery once again on the agenda of software engineers. While there are several efforts towards automating Web service discovery and composition, many developers still search for services
via online Web service repositories and then combine them manually. However, from our analysis of these repositories, it yields that, unlike traditional software libraries, they rely on little metadata to support
service discovery. We believe that the major cause is the difficulty of automatically deriving metadata that would describe rapidly changing Web service collections. In this paper, we discuss the major shortcomings of state of the art Web service repositories and, as a solution, we
report on ongoing work and ideas on how to use techniques developed in the context of the Semantic Web (ontology learning, mapping, metadata based presentation) to improve the current situation
No-But-Semantic-Match: Computing Semantically Matched XML Keyword Search Results
Users are rarely familiar with the content of a data source they are
querying, and therefore cannot avoid using keywords that do not exist in the
data source. Traditional systems may respond with an empty result, causing
dissatisfaction, while the data source in effect holds semantically related
content. In this paper we study this no-but-semantic-match problem on XML
keyword search and propose a solution which enables us to present the top-k
semantically related results to the user. Our solution involves two steps: (a)
extracting semantically related candidate queries from the original query and
(b) processing candidate queries and retrieving the top-k semantically related
results. Candidate queries are generated by replacement of non-mapped keywords
with candidate keywords obtained from an ontological knowledge base. Candidate
results are scored using their cohesiveness and their similarity to the
original query. Since the number of queries to process can be large, with each
result having to be analyzed, we propose pruning techniques to retrieve the
top- results efficiently. We develop two query processing algorithms based
on our pruning techniques. Further, we exploit a property of the candidate
queries to propose a technique for processing multiple queries in batch, which
improves the performance substantially. Extensive experiments on two real
datasets verify the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approaches.Comment: 24 pages, 21 figures, 6 tables, submitted to The VLDB Journal for

Content-Aware DataGuides for Indexing Large Collections of XML Documents
XML is well-suited for modelling structured data with
textual content. However, most indexing approaches perform
structure and content matching independently, combining
the retrieved path and keyword occurrences in a third
step. This paper shows that retrieval in XML documents can
be accelerated significantly by processing text and structure
simultaneously during all retrieval phases. To this end,
the Content-Aware DataGuide (CADG) enhances the wellknown
DataGuide with (1) simultaneous keyword and path
matching and (2) a precomputed content/structure join. Extensive
experiments prove the CADG to be 50-90% faster
than the DataGuide for various sorts of query and document,
including difficult cases such as poorly structured
queries and recursive document paths. A new query classification
scheme identifies precise query characteristics with
a predominant influence on the performance of the individual
indices. The experiments show that the CADG is applicable
to many real-world applications, in particular large
collections of heterogeneously structured XML documents
