Linking everyday presentations through context information

Abstract

A relevant issue on linking services based on information retrieval techniques is how to define scopes that delimit homogeneous information so as to obtain good results. An interesting way to achieve this is to provide such scope delimitation by means of context information. This process of linking can be tailored according to contextual constraints explicitly provided by users. We propose linking services enhanced with context information captured from everyday presentations. We present the LinkDigger context service, which creates hyperlinks following information obtained from users. As a result, different hypertexts can be defined upon the same information.
