Participatory archive: towards decentralised curation,radical user orientation,and broader contextualisation of records management 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Isto Huvila 《Archival Science》2008,8(1):15-36
User perspective and user studies have received noticeably little practical attention in archives and archival science. The
purpose of this article is to address the issues of communication and user participation in archival contexts. Two action
research projects-based digital archives are discussed. The insights gained during the research and development work are used
to formulate a new approach to a participatory archive. In spite of the historical nature of the archives discussed, the suggested ways of interacting with an archive are not specific
to historical records. The fundamental characteristics of the proposed approach are decentralised curation, radical user orientation,
and contextualisation of both records and the entire archival process.

The classical Probability Ranking Principle (PRP) forms the theoretical basis for probabilistic Information Retrieval (IR)
models, which are dominating IR theory since about 20 years. However, the assumptions underlying the PRP often do not hold,
and its view is too narrow for interactive information retrieval (IIR). In this article, a new theoretical framework for interactive
retrieval is proposed: The basic idea is that during IIR, a user moves between situations. In each situation, the system presents
to the user a list of choices, about which s/he has to decide, and the first positive decision moves the user to a new situation.
Each choice is associated with a number of cost and probability parameters. Based on these parameters, an optimum ordering
of the choices can the derived—the PRP for IIR. The relationship of this rule to the classical PRP is described, and issues
of further research are pointed out.

This article is a general introduction into the special issue of Archival Science on “archiving research data”. It summarizes
the different contributions and gives an overview of the main issues in this special field of archiving. One of the leading
questions is how and why research data archives differ from public record offices. In the past, the developments in these
two worlds have been rather separate. There are however signs that they are converging in the digital world. In particular,
this can be seen in the areas of metadata and Internet dissemination as these are strongly influenced by the rapid changes
in information technology. These changes have also led to important new developments in the infrastructure of research data
to which special attention is paid. New concepts such as collaboratories, data curation, Open Access and the Open Archives
Initiative are discussed.

This paper, based on PhD research, reflects upon the market for electronic books in the general trade sectors of UK and US
publishers during the early years of the 21st century. The paper reports on interviews carried out with publishers between
2003 and 2005, and reflects upon four areas which presented and still present challenges to the uptake of e-books—negative
perceptions from consumers; formats; pricing and issues regarding digital rights. The paper concludes that the development
and uptake of electronic books has some way to go in the general trade/mass-market sectors.

This article examines the archival methods developed by Colbert to train his son in state administration. Based on Colbert’s
correspondence with his son, it reveals the practices Colbert thought necessary to collect and manage information in his state
encyclopedic archive during the last half of the 17th century.

There is a wide set of evaluation metrics available to compare the quality of text clustering algorithms. In this article,
we define a few intuitive formal constraints on such metrics which shed light on which aspects of the quality of a clustering
are captured by different metric families. These formal constraints are validated in an experiment involving human assessments,
and compared with other constraints proposed in the literature. Our analysis of a wide range of metrics shows that only BCubed satisfies all formal constraints. We also extend the analysis to the problem of overlapping clustering, where items can simultaneously
belong to more than one cluster. As Bcubed cannot be directly applied to this task, we propose a modified version of Bcubed
that avoids the problems found with other metrics.

This paper gives an overview of the archival issues that relate to digitally signed documents. First, by way of introduction,
the advanced digital signature is presented briefly. In the second part, a number of problems are discussed that present themselves
when a digital signature is used as a proof of authenticity and integrity for digital documents in general. In particular,
it is also being investigated whether it makes any sense for the archivist to digitally sign all electronic records under
his or her management. Problems relating to the (medium) long-term archiving of digitally signed documents are dealt with
in the third part. After an overview of the sticking points for long-term validation (“Archival issues”) a number of possible
solutions are discussed (“Solutions for long-term archiving”).

Result merging methods in distributed information retrieval with overlapping databases 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
In distributed information retrieval systems, document overlaps occur frequently among different component databases. This
paper presents an experimental investigation and evaluation of a group of result merging methods including the shadow document
method and the multi-evidence method in the environment of overlapping databases. We assume, with the exception of resultant
document lists (either with rankings or scores), no extra information about retrieval servers and text databases is available,
which is the usual case for many applications on the Internet and the Web.
The experimental results show that the shadow document method and the multi-evidence method are the two best methods when
overlap is high, while Round-robin is the best for low overlap. The experiments also show that [0,1] linear normalization
is a better option than linear regression normalization for result merging in a heterogeneous environment.

This article concentrates on the retro-archiving of older digital research data. The ADA approach was developed and used to retro-archive older data files, most of which were between 10 and 30 years old. The origin and
main characteristics of the ADA approach are described in the second section of the article. The third section discusses two
recent data-archiving pilot projects that were conducted in the Netherlands. The first of these projects, the ADA project,
laid the foundation for the ADA approach, which was subsequently applied and tested again in the second project, eDNA, which focused on archaeological data. The final section of the article provides a comparison of the results of these
two projects.

Classifying Amharic webnews 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

We present work aimed at compiling an Amharic corpus from the Web and automatically categorizing the texts. Amharic is the
second most spoken Semitic language in the World (after Arabic) and used for countrywide communication in Ethiopia. It is
highly inflectional and quite dialectally diversified. We discuss the issues of compiling and annotating a corpus of Amharic
news articles from the Web. This corpus was then used in three sets of text classification experiments. Working with a less-researched
language highlights a number of practical issues that might otherwise receive less attention or go unnoticed. The purpose
of the experiments has not primarily been to develop a cutting-edge text classification system for Amharic, but rather to
put the spotlight on some of these issues. The first two sets of experiments investigated the use of Self-Organizing Maps
(SOMs) for document classification. Testing on small datasets, we first looked at classifying unseen data into 10 predefined
categories of news items, and then at clustering it around query content, when taking 16 queries as class labels. The second
set of experiments investigated the effect of operations such as stemming and part-of-speech tagging on text classification
performance. We compared three representations while constructing classification models based on bagging of decision trees
for the 10 predefined news categories. The best accuracy was achieved using the full text as representation. A representation
using only the nouns performed almost equally well, confirming the assumption that most of the information required for distinguishing
between various categories actually is contained in the nouns, while stemming did not have much effect on the performance
of the classifier.

This article analyses the extent to which archival exemptions for historical, scientific and statistical research in privacy
legislation support preservation in selected European Union countries, and comparable aspects of Australian, American and
Canadian law within a legal, ethical and digital archival perspective. The authors recommend that the further processing of
personal data under data protection law be given a wider scope of interpretation for archival preservation purposes in both
the public and private sector, coupled with the use of researcher and archival codes in relation to access to personal data.
They also recommend early appraisal and integration of privacy with freedom of information and archival regimes.

A comparison of analyses of the Scottish publishing industry carried out in 1992, 2002 and 2007 underscores the fragility
of the sector within a small country within the English-language community. A number of indices reveal either stability or
stagnation and the picture emerges of the remarkable tenacity of publishing in Scotland. Although there is already a significant
and vital element of state support for publishing in Scotland, further intervention will be necessary to ensure fulfilment
of its potential.
