Design and implementation of Metta, a metasearch engine for biomedical literature retrieval intended for systematic reviewers [PDF]
Individuals and groups who write systematic reviews and meta-analyses in evidence-based medicine regularly carry out literature searches across multiple search engines linked to different bibliographic databases, and thus have an urgent need for a suitable metasearch engine to save time spent on repeated searches and to remove duplicate publications ...

The potential of the metasearch engine [PDF]
AbstractResearch into metasearch engines has traditionally been focused on source engine selection and the re‐ranking and integration of multiple search engines' results. In this paper we describe existing and new techniques that metasearch engines can apply to broaden the services provided to the searcher, by capturing and analyzing information ...

Towards a highly-scalable and effective metasearch engine [PDF]
A metasearch engine is a system that supports uni ed access to multiple local search engines. Database selection is one of the main challenges in building a large-scale metasearch engine. The problem is to eAEciently and accurately determine a small number of potentially useful local search engines to invoke for each user query.

Evaluation of Result Merging Strategies for Metasearch Engines [PDF]
Result merging is a key component in a metasearch engine. Once the results from various search engines are collected, the metasearch system merges them into a single ranked list. The effectiveness of a metasearch engine is closely related to the result merging algorithm it employs. In this paper, we investigate a variety of resulting merging algorithms

Effective Ranking Fusion Methods for Personalized Metasearch Engines [PDF]
Metasearch engines are a significant part of the information retrieval process. Most of Web users use them directly or indirectly to access information from more than one data sources. The cornerstone of their technology is their rank aggregation method, which is the algorithm they use to classify the collected results.
