Eliciting concepts of place for text-based image retrieval

Proceedings of the 4th ACM workshop on Geographical information retrieval, 2007
This paper describes research being employed in the Tripod project to improve the retrieval of photographs through a comprehensive knowledge of where they were taken. The methods described here attempt to elicit semantics, and thus terms for use in indexing, related to the idea of place from theoretical geography.

CUES THAT ELICIT ANALYTIC‐DEDUCTIVE METHODS IN CONCEPT ATTAINMENT*

British Journal of Psychology, 1964
In inference concept attainment some subjects draw conclusions about concepts (global‐hypothesis method) and some subjects draw conclusions about the relevance or irrelevance of dimensions (analytic‐deductive method). Experiments were performed to determine whether the presence or absence of certain cues accompanying inference concept attainment ...

A questionnaire to elicit the mathematical concept images of engineering students

International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2000
As part of a study into the mathematical understanding of engineering students, a questionnaire has been developed which seeks to elicit from students their concept images attached to key mathematical concepts. The questionnaire seeks to address both the level of understanding of the students and the mode in which the students hold the concept image ...

AUTOMATED REQUIREMENTS ELICITATION: COMBINING A MODEL-DRIVEN APPROACH WITH CONCEPT REUSE

International Journal of Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering, 2003
Extracting pertinent and useful information from customers has long plagued the process of requirements elicitation. This paper presents a new approach to support the elicitation process. This approach combines various techniques for requirements elicitation which include model-based concept acquisition, goal-driven structured interview and concept ...
