    A importância da internet é hoje uma realidade cuja facilidade que nos traz de aceder a produtos ouserviços, informação ou até mesmo aproximar pessoas, torna-­‐a ainda mais indispensável. Cada vez mais, a nossa vida é feita através internet. Seja uma simples consulta de informação de horário de funcionamento de uma loja, a compra de produtos de uma loja usando plataformas de venda online, transações bancárias ou até operações fiscais, a internet faz parte das nossas vidas. Até novas áreas de negócio surgem com a massificação do uso da internet. Naturalmente, o surgimento de plataformas que repliquem o mundo real no mundo virtual torna­‐se bastante óbvio e cada vez mais desejado. A pesquisa de emprego é algo bastante comum no mundo real. Naturalmente, com a internet, surgiram e surgem plataformas dedicadas a esta área. As empresas que disponibilizam empregos recorrem-­‐se destas plataformas pois, estão ao alcance de muitos utilizadores e, geralmente, são gratuitas, juntando o melhor de dois mundos. A necessidade de atingir com maior eficácia o publico alvo leva a que surjam plataformas com maior granularidade de áreas de emprego ou então especializadas em determinadas áreas. Contudo, a pesquisa nestas plataformas fica aquém do desejado pois não tem em consideração a relevância de um emprego para o utilizador apresentando resultados irrelevantes. No sentido de oferecer um novo paradigma de pesquisa de empregos, criou-­se uma plataforma, dotada de conhecimento, que estende a pesquisa o tipo de pesquisa tradicional obtendo mais resultados com muita relevância para o utilizador

    Semantic Similarity of Spatial Scenes

    The formalization of similarity in spatial information systems can unleash their functionality and contribute technology not only useful, but also desirable by broad groups of users. As a paradigm for information retrieval, similarity supersedes tedious querying techniques and unveils novel ways for user-system interaction by naturally supporting modalities such as speech and sketching. As a tool within the scope of a broader objective, it can facilitate such diverse tasks as data integration, landmark determination, and prediction making. This potential motivated the development of several similarity models within the geospatial and computer science communities. Despite the merit of these studies, their cognitive plausibility can be limited due to neglect of well-established psychological principles about properties and behaviors of similarity. Moreover, such approaches are typically guided by experience, intuition, and observation, thereby often relying on more narrow perspectives or restrictive assumptions that produce inflexible and incompatible measures. This thesis consolidates such fragmentary efforts and integrates them along with novel formalisms into a scalable, comprehensive, and cognitively-sensitive framework for similarity queries in spatial information systems. Three conceptually different similarity queries at the levels of attributes, objects, and scenes are distinguished. An analysis of the relationship between similarity and change provides a unifying basis for the approach and a theoretical foundation for measures satisfying important similarity properties such as asymmetry and context dependence. The classification of attributes into categories with common structural and cognitive characteristics drives the implementation of a small core of generic functions, able to perform any type of attribute value assessment. Appropriate techniques combine such atomic assessments to compute similarities at the object level and to handle more complex inquiries with multiple constraints. These techniques, along with a solid graph-theoretical methodology adapted to the particularities of the geospatial domain, provide the foundation for reasoning about scene similarity queries. Provisions are made so that all methods comply with major psychological findings about people’s perceptions of similarity. An experimental evaluation supplies the main result of this thesis, which separates psychological findings with a major impact on the results from those that can be safely incorporated into the framework through computationally simpler alternatives
