From CISTI-ICIST LAB WIKI

Experimental Applications

• Project Ensemble - is the application of the Carrot 2 open-source clustering engine to a Lucene full-text index of approximately 6 million STM articles. Results from the first 150 search results are clustered and displayed in either "Foam Tree" or "Folder" sets.

• Project Sarkanto - is an elementary search-engine based on a Lucene index of approximately 7 million STM articles. Results from a search in Sarkanto have associated recommendations based either on "citation similarity" (see Synthese Recommender) or "user similarity", as determined by the 'bX' Recommender from Ex Libris.

• Project Torngat - visualizing journal space as a backdrop for search refinement and discovery in a large scale journal article digital library. Semantic 'Maps of Science' built with LuSql, Lucene, Semantic Vectors, R, and Processing.

• Ungava - explores ways of navigating full-text search and the visualization of search results for articles in the NRC Research Press collection (demo) and the Colorado State University Libraries catalogue (demo). Includes a drill cloud implementation.

• Sleeping Beauties - Did you know that CISTI has a thousand articles that were ahead of their time? They originally received little attention and were almost forgotten by science. Then they were re-discovered and have since influenced research. Measuring this surge of citing activity allows CISTI to identify fields undergoing rapid change. Explore the Sleeping Beauties in CISTI's collection with MapleLeaf

• Synthese Recommender - generates recommendations based on collaborative filtering with other users and article citations. Try the Synthese Recommender System Demo and view the Flash Tour of Synthese. Try the Synthese Recommender demo and view the Flash Tour.

• LuSql - creates a Lucene index from a SQL query of a DBMS using this simple yet powerful Java command line utility.
