An appropriate promotion, distribution and dissemination of scientific,
artistic and technology developments can foster the collaboration
between a country’s productive and academic sectors. The purpose of this
paper is to present a novel search engine aiming at helping people to
access science and technology advances, researchers and institutions
working in specific areas of research. Our search engine first collects
information disseminated on the Web in academic institution sites and in
researchers personal homepages. Then, after intensive text processing,
it summarizes the information in an enriched and user-friendly
presentation oriented to non-expert users. Stable performance and an
acceptable level of effectiveness for automatic named entities
recognition indicate the potential of our approach for bridging the gap
between the heterogeneous and unstructured information available on the
Web about the research and development advances in a country and the
innovation required by the productive sectors. Prototype: http://goo.gl/HCr62wDirector: Marcelo R. Campo Researchers: Analía Amandi, Daniela Godoy, Marcelo Armentano Students: José Balmaceda, Alejandro Corbellini, Germán Attanasio Ruiz |
