The purpose of this study is to present a theoretical framework and practical methodology to extend the scope of Library and Information Science by incorporating the usability evaluation of e-book, which has considerably increased in proportion in the digital library. By surveying e-book users and through statistical analysis, it was found that rebuilding a set of usability evaluation factors for e-books is necessary to activate e-books in the digital libraries. This study inclusively presents a conceptual model of e-book usability evaluation and suggests guidelines for usability principles. 攀＊＊＊ 본 연구는 연세대학교 대학원 박사학위논문의 일부를 요약한 것임.＊＊＊ 서울경제신문 편집부 문화레저부 기자(india2121@empal.com)＊＊＊＊연세대학교 문과대학 문헌정보학과 교수(swhan@yonsei.ac.kr) 논문접수일자 : 2004년 8월 19일 게재확정일자 : 2004년 9월 10일攀攀

웹 문서 검색을 위해 키워드와 불리언 연산식을 사용하는 것에 비해 자연어 질의 문장을 입력하는 방법은 검색 시스템 사용자에게 훨씬 이상적인 인터페이스이다. 본 논문은 사용자가 입력하는 자연어 질의 문장을 구문 분석하고 그 구문 구조에 기반하여 검색어를 확장하는 다중 검색 기법을 제안한다. 구문 트리를 순회하여 구조적으로 연관된 복합 명사를 조합하거나 분할하는 과정을 거치고, 이형 표기 및 축약 표기 용어들에 대해 확장 다중 검색함으로써 웹 정보 검색 시스템의 재현율과 정확도를 높일 수 있다.

Abstract

For the users of information retrieval systems, natural language query is the more ideal interface, compared with keyword and boolean expressions. This paper proposes a retrieval technique with expanded keyword from syntactically-analyzed structures of natural language query as user input. Through the steps combining or splitting the compound nouns based on syntactic tree traversal of the query, and expanding the other-formed or shorten-formed into multiple keyword, it can enhance the precision and correctness of the retrieval system.
