Government docs on P2P
07/21/2004 04:30 AMJeremy sez, "A St. John's University law student created a p2p network
allowing users to share government documents. Over 600 court and
government documents such as memos, communications and reports can be
accessed through the Kazaa, LimeWire and Soulseek p2p networks. The
Abu Ghraib prison memos and the Senate Intelligence Committee report
on government intelligence leading up to the Iraq War are included. It
would be nice to see this collection of useful, informative and
sometimes embarrassing documents grow. It might also give Washington
more fodder for legal maneuvers against p2p."

Builder.com: API Docs with phpDocumentor
09/08/2004 09:14 AMThankfully, PHP code is some of the easiest to write (of the web
scripting languages I've worked with). Unfortunately, documentating it
is just as much of a pain as it is with any other language. And,
this
Builder.com article puts it well:
Developers and documentation
are like oil and water - they just don't mix well. Many developers
find writing documentation to be a boring waste of time. It's no
wonder, then, that most companies hire separate personnel to create
technical documentation rather than try to persuade developers and
programmers to do it themselves.

03/06/2004 01:53 AMPHP 5 and the integrated Zend Engine 2 have greatly improved PHP's
performance and capabilities, but great care has been taken to break
as little existing code as possible. So migrating your code from PHP 4
to 5 should be very easy. Most existing PHP 4 code should be ready to
run without changes, but you should still know about the few
differences and take care to test your code before switching versions
in production environments. -- Nuno Lopes

Pixel-counting can un-redact government
docs
05/10/2004 03:02 PMA Luxembourgian/Irish security research team have presented a paper on
a technique for identifying words that have been blacked out of
documents, as when government docs are published with big
strikethroughs over the bits that are sensitive to national security.
The technique doesn't work on monospace fonts like Courier, but the
State Department's recent font guidelines require that all docs be
published in Times New Roman, which decodes like a charm.
hey found the number of pixels that had been blacked out in the
sentence: "An Egyptian Islamic Jihad (EIJ) operative told an xxxxxxxx
service at the same time that Bin Ladin was planning to exploit the
operative's access to the U.S. to mount a terrorist strike." They then
used a computer to determine the pixel length of words in the
dictionary when written in the Arial font.
The program rejected all of the words that were not within three
pixels of the length of the word that was probably under the
blacked-out area in the document.
The software then reduced the number of possible words to just seven
from 1,530 by using semantic guidelines, including the grammatical
context. The researchers selected the word "Egyptian" from the seven
possible words...

Latent semantic indexing explained
Latent semantic indexing explained
05/01/2004 07:41 AM In response to my blogging about pages not saying what they're about,
Hanan Cohen points us to an exceptionally well-written article by
Clara Yu, John Cuadrado, Maciej Ceglowski and J. Scott Payne about
latent semantic indexing (not to be confused with latex cement and
indenting). Latent semantic indexing adds an important step to the
document indexing process. In addition to recording which keywords a
document contains, the method examines the document collection as a
whole, to see which other documents contain some of those same words.
LSI considers documents that have many words in common to be
semantically close,...

Semantic Indexing
09/17/2004 08:43 AMSemantic Indexinghttp://www.nitle.org/s
emantic_search.phpSemantic indexing is their name for
a family of techniques for searching and organizing large data
collections. The goal of semantic indexing is to find patterns in
unstructured data (documents without descriptors such as keywords or
special tags) and use those patterns to offer more effective search
and categorization services. Semantic indexing techniques are
language-agnostic, so data collections don't have to be in English, or
even in any human language at all. For example, they have had good
preliminary results in protein structure prediction using algorithms
adapted from a text search engine. Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI or
LSA, for latent semantic analysis) was originally described in a
1990
paper by Deerwester, Dumais, Furnas, Landauer, and Harshman, and
is a topic of active study. You can find links to journal articles and
other LSI websites on our

Web
http://kmi.open
.ac.uk/projects/magpie/main.html
Magpie uses ontology
infrastructure to semantically markup web documents on-the-fly. The
existing technologies in this problem domain tend to be rather
heavyweight, and often modify the appearance of the actual webpage.
Whilst these modifications may sometimes be acceptable, sometimes they
may be a cause of a serious annoyance on user's behalf. Often, the
existing technologies rely on one very specific ontology... To
alleviate some of these issues, they started work on the Magpie
technology that would be lightweight and provide sufficiently robust
and flexible features for semantically enriched browsing. Magpie tool
aims to identify and filter out the concepts-of-interest from any
webpage it is given. The current set of concepts can be influenced by
a selection of a particular ontology of concepts and relations. In
addition to identifying the concepts-of-interest that are relevant
from the perspective of a particular ontology, each such concept may
provide an applicable set of relations or commands that can be
executed. Such relationships are both, determined and evaluated
dynamically by querying the ontology server. Another feature they
believe improves the user's experience is the ability to turn the
semantic menus ON or OFF, to highlight all instances belonging to a
particular ontological class, to follow and semantically process the
links embedded in the document. This has been added to the Semantic
Web Research section of

Semantic Blogging: Spreading the

Semantic Blogging: Spreading the
Semantic Web Meme
05/08/2004 06:20 AMSemantic Blogging: Spreading the Semantic Web Meme by Steve
Cayzerhttp://snipurl.com/66yjSteve is a research engineer at Hewlett-Packard's (HP) laboratories
in Bristol, England. He is interested in the intersection of semantic
web technologies and machine learning techniques, such as automated
classification and metadata enrichment. He also has a semantic blog.
This paper is about semantic blogging, an application of the semantic
web to blogging. The semantic web promises to make the web more useful
by endowing metadata with machine processable semantics. Blogging is a
lightweight web publishing paradigm which provides a very low barrier
to entry, useful syndication and aggregation behaviour, a simple to
understand structure and decentralized construction of a rich
information network. Semantic blogging builds upon the success and
clear network value of blogging by adding additional semantic
structure to items shared over the blog channels. In this way we add
significant value allowing view, navigation and query along semantic
rather than simply chronological or serendipitous connections. Our
vision is to use semantic web tools and ideas to help move blogging
beyond communal diary browsing to rich information sharing scenarios.
We have built a simple prototype as an illustration of this vision.

Google Indexing Quirk
09/05/2004 04:11 AMGoogle is dying: I
think the title of this bit may be a little dramatic, but the author
points out an interesting phenomenon with Google pages lately.
On sites with more than a few thousand pages, Google is not
indexing anywhere from ten percent to seventy percent of the pages it
knows about. These pages show up in Google's main index as a listing
of the URL, which means that the Googlebot is aware of the page. But
they do not show up as an indexed page.
When the page is listed but not indexed, the only way to find it in
a search is if your search terms hit on words in the URL itself. Even
if they do hit, these listed pages rank so poorly compared to indexed
pages, that they are almost invisible. This is true even though the
listed pages still retain their usual PageRank. [...]
Google is dying. It broke sixteen months ago and hasn't been fixed.
It looks to me as if pages that have been noted by the crawler cannot
be indexed until some other indexed page gives up its docID
number.

mlTo use the census soundex to locate information
about a person, you must know his or her full name and the state or
territory in which he or she lived at the time of the census. It is
also helpful to know the full name of the head of the household in
which the person lived because census takers recorded information
under that name. The soundex is a coded surname (last name) index
based on the way a surname sounds rather than the way it is spelled.
Surnames that sound the same, but are spelled differently, like SMITH
and SMYTH, have the same code and are filed together. The soundex
coding system was developed so that you can find a surname even though
it may have been recorded under various spellings. This has been added
