9. The importance of a
good relevance engine
in saving you time

Relevance
System
Learning
Ideas
(Semantics)
Metrics
Term Match
(Syntactic)
This can be simple associations or
thesauri. But they can also be
deeper and make use of expert
knowledge and quality indexing
and ontologies
These can enhance basic relevance, but require a
strong data source, judgement and quality information
This measure of relevance is the
most basic and the “easiest”.
Some services just buy a
relevance package. But it has to
be done carefully and with context
in order to be effective
This represents a customizable search
experience… We’ll talk about this in
more detail in the future as it isn’t yet
part of the SciFindern experience…
