In this paper, we present a domain specific information extraction approach. We use manually formed templates to extract information from unstructured documents where grammatical and syntactical errors occur frequently. We applied our approach to primarily Turkish unstructured soccer Web-casting texts. Compared to automated approaches we achieve high precision-recall rates (97% - 85%). In addition to that, unlike automated approaches we do not use part-of-speech taggers, parsers, phrase chunkers or that kind of a linguistic tool. As a result, our approach can be applied to any domain or any language without the necessity of successful linguistic tools. The drawback of our approach is the time spent on crafting the templates. We also propose the means to decrease that time.

Text Classification in the Turkish Marketing Domain for Context Sensitive Ad Distribution
Engin, Melih; Can, Tolga (2009-09-16)
In this paper, we construct and compare several feature extraction approaches in order to find a better solution for classification of Turkish web documents in the marketing domain. We produce our feature extraction techniques using characteristics of the Turkish language, structures of web documents and online content in the marketing domain. We form datasets in different feature spaces and we apply several Support Vector Machine (SVM) configurations on these datasets. We conduct our study considering the ...
Process based information systems evaluation: Towards the attributes of "pRISE"
Özkan Yıldırım, Sevgi; Bilgen, Semih (2007-10-31)
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the importance of undertaking a systemic view of information systems evaluation that augments the frequently reported prescriptive (cost/benefit) analysis approaches. Design/methodology/approach The paper adopts a qualitative case perspective and derives a framework for substantive information systems evaluation factors (PRISE). Three empirical formulations are considered and a comparison made to determine the content and context of the findings. Finding...
A framework for ranking and categorizing medical documents
Al Zamıl, Mohammed GH. I.; Betin Can, Aysu; Department of Information Systems (2010)
In this dissertation, we present a framework to enhance the retrieval, ranking, and categorization of text documents in medical domain. The contributions of this study are the introduction of a similarity model to retrieve and rank medical textdocuments and the introduction of rule-based categorization method based on lexical syntactic patterns features. We formulate the similarity model by combining three features to model the relationship among document and construct a document network. We aim to rank ret...
Topic-centric querying of web information resources
Altıngövde, İsmail Sengör; Ulusoy, O; Ozsoyoglu, G; Ozsoyoglu, ZM (2001-01-01)
This paper deals with the problem of modeling web information resources using expert knowledge and personalized user information, and querying them in terms of topics and topic relationships. We propose a model for web information resources, and a query language SQL-TC (Topic-Centric SQL) to query the model. The model is composed of web-based information resources (XML or HTML documents on the web), expert advice repositories (domain-expert-specified metadata for information resources), and personalized inf...
