Mobile image retrieval is one of the most exciting and fastest growing research fields in the area of multimedia technology. As the amount of digital contents continues to grow users are experiencing increasing difficulty in finding specific images in their image libraries. This paper proposes a new efficient and effective mobile image retrieval method that applies a weighted combination of color and texture utilizing spatial-color and second order statistics. The system for mobile image searches runs in real-time on an iPhone and can easily be used to find a specific image. To evaluate the performance of the new method, we assessed the iPhone simulations performance in terms of average precision and recall using several image databases and compare the results with those obtained using existing methods. Experimental trials revealed that the proposed descriptor exhibited a significant improvement of over 13% in retrieval effectiveness, compared to the best of the other descriptors.

Rethinking and re-conceptualization of knowledge organization has become necessary as a result of recent changes brought by digitization, networked resources, and interdisciplinary shifts. This paper calls for a review of curriculum and changes in teaching approaches to respond to these changes. The paper suggests expanding the scope of knowledge organization by adding new topics, and recommends placement of these topics in different courses (introductory or foundation courses, core or required courses, and electives or specialized courses) for a balanced approach. The paper also proposes a change in the mindset about the target of these courses and recommends knowledge organization work be extended from institutions to individuals. It is also suggested that knowledge organization work responsibilities are broadened to involve authors, knowledge workers, and information users rather than restricting it only to trained information professionals. The paper highlights that the digital environment makes it necessary to change the context for teaching KO courses and goes beyond the collection of information resources and addresses personal information management needs as well. The paper concludes that fundamental changes tantamount to re-conceptualization of the area of knowledge organization, which is expected to open up new opportunities for information graduates aspiring to work in information environment beyond libraries.

This paper proposes a novel knowledge extraction system, TAKES (Two-step Approach for Knowledge Extraction System), which integrates advanced techniques from Information Retrieval (IR), Information Extraction (IE), and Natural Language Processing (NLP). In particular, TAKES adopts a novel keyphrase extraction-based query expansion technique to collect promising documents. It also uses a Conditional Random Field-based machine learning technique to extract important biological entities and relations. TAKES is applied to biological knowledge extraction, particularly retrieving promising documents that contain Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) and extracting PPI pairs. TAKES consists of two major components: DocSpotter, which is used to query and retrieve promising documents for extraction, and a Conditional Random Field (CRF)-based entity extraction component known as FCRF. The present paper investigated research problems addressing the issues with a knowledge extraction system and conducted a series of experiments to test our hypotheses. The findings from the experiments are as follows: First, the author verified, using three different test collections to measure the performance of our query expansion technique, that DocSpotter is robust and highly accurate when compared to Okapi BM25 and SLIPPER. Second, the author verified that our relation extraction algorithm, FCRF, is highly accurate in terms of F-Measure compared to four other competitive extraction algorithms: Support Vector Machine, Maximum Entropy, Single POS HMM, and Rapier.

To analyze and compare the most influencing factors on cloud computing adoption (CCA) in the healthcare organization, a systematic review and meta-analyses of studies was performed using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) and Cochrane collaboration recommendations. A search of PubMed, ScienceDirect, Springer, Wiley Online, and Taylor & Francis Online digital libraries (From inception to January 19, 2022) was performed. A total of 17 studies met the defined studies' inclusion and exclusion criteria. Statistical significance difference favoring most influencing factors on CCA were (MD 0.76, 95% CI -1.48 - 3.01, p <0.00001, I² = 90%), (MD 1.40, 95% CI -4.76 - 7.55, p < 0.00007, I² = 97%) (MD 0.17, 95% CI -2.69 - 3.03, p<0.00001, I² = 96%) for technology vs. organizational, technology vs. environmental and business vs. human factors, respectively. Organizational and environmental factors had greater impacts on CCA compared with technological factors. Moreover, business factors were more influential than the human factors.

This study aimed to discover the notable experiences of Library and Information Science students in a virtual internship program. It employed qualitative descriptive research design by thematically analyzing the monthly internship journal of the interns. Using Colaizzi's method to identify themes from their experiences, the study revealed that interns expected to gain knowledge and skills on operations, services, and new information communication technologies in libraries. Orientation was found helpful in identifying the things interns needed to prepare. The interns faced issues from procrastination and technical difficulties, which they coped with employing avoidance strategies. Overall, the internship was viewed as an opportunity to learn and navigate the online digital system of the library despite the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. They realized their capacity and reflected on which competencies need improvement. In conclusion, students still learned the necessary knowledge and skills of a librarian; experienced the challenges faced in an actual library and were provided with various opportunities and realizations regarding the practice of librarianship. This study proposed a three-stage framework that outlines the involvement of the supervising instructors, librarians, and interns in the internship program from the preparation to the process and post-assessment.

This study aims to evaluate some academic institutional repositories (IRs) in Ghana. Data were collected using observation and interview methods by examining the various websites of seven (7) selected academic institutional repositories in Ghana. The findings revealed that the University of Ghana, Legon, leads records count of the seven Institutional Repository (IRs) examined. Dspace was the prioritized software for managing and preserving the digital contents of these IRs. Theses, dissertations and research articles were the leading contents deposited on the IRs. The majority of the IRs have incorporated RSS (Rich Site Summary or Really Simple Syndication) feeds on their IRs with few using other Web 2.0 features. English was the only interface language used on all the IRs. From the interview, the findings revealed that most of the faculty members did not use the IR very often and 9(42.9) also indicated that, they have never deposited their materials on the IR. Faculty members again indicated that, inadequate ICT connectivity and infrastructure, unreliable power supply, Copyrights and intellectual rights, financial constrain, inadequate advocacy and training on the importance of IRs to faculty and users were the major challenges of academic libraries in operating IRs in Ghana.

Dublin Core같은 기존의 정적인 메타데이타 집합은 서지 정보 중심의 정적인 데이터 요소를 가지므로 새로운 환경에 적용하기 위해서는 다양한 메타데이타를 위한 메타데이타 간의 통합, 웹 환경에서의 메타데이타의 표준화 문제 및 확장성 문제들이 고려되어야 한다. 특히, 디지털 라이브러리에서 전자상거래의 개념을 포함하며 서로간의 상호운영성을 위해 이벤트중심의 메타데이타 기록 방식이 등장함에 따라 기존 관리법으로는 갱신 연산간의 차별화가 이루어지지 않아 부적절한 갱신 연산 지연이 발생하므로 이에 대한 고려 역시 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 우선 디지털 라이브러리 환경에서 완화된 트랜잭션 일관성의 적용여부를 보이며, 새로운 방식의 메타데이타 요소를 사용자 질의 트랜잭션의 판독연산에 관련있는 정적 메타데이타 요소와 전자상거래 트랜잭션의 갱신연산과 관련있는 동적 메타데이타 요소로 구분한다. 구분된 메타데이타 요소에 따라, 관련 트랜잭션들을 재분류함으로써 전자상거래 요소와 동적 갱신(전자상거래) 트랜잭선을 고려한 새로운 메타데이타 관리기법을 제안한다. 최소의 유지비용으로 갱신을 고려하는 2버전과 동적 갱신 연산 충돌의 최소화를 위한 ARU(Appended Refresh Unit)를 사용함으로써 기록연산 간의 충돌을 최소화해 빠른 응답시간과 높은 최근성 비율을 보이게 된다. 성능분석을 통해, 새로운 메타데이타 환경하에서 제안한 알고리즘이 기존의 알고리즘에 비해 좋은 성능을 가짐을 보인다.

본 연구의 목적은 소규모의 디지털 아카이브인 국채보상운동 디지털 아카이브의 개인과 단체 전거데이터를 관리하기 위한 메타데이터 AP를 개발하는 것이다. 도서관과 기록관의 개인/단체 메타데이터 표준, 구축 사례 및 지침을 분석하여 설계 원칙과 핵심적인 메타데이터 요소를 도출하였으며, 국채보상운동 개인/단체명 시소러스 데이터, 위키데이터 연계 메타데이터 모델과 매핑하여 최종적으로 식별영역 10개 요소, 내용영역 14개 요소, 관계영역 8개 요소, 통제영역 4개 요소를 도출하였다. 소규모의 기관에서도 적용할 수 있도록 단순 구조 스키마를 적용하였고, 상호운용성을 위해 DublinCore, SKOS 스킴을 참고하여 스키마를 제안하였고 실제 데이터를 토대로 적용가능성을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 데이터 관리의 중요성은 알지만, 실제적인 적용이 어려운 기관에서 전거데이터 관리체계를 마련하고자 할 때, 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.
