Objectives
The objective of the course is to impart in-depth knowledge on Information Storage and retrieval, right from foundational definitions, components of multimedia resource retrieval systems, functions and design of ISAR systems, evaluation and advanced topics such as natural language processing and semantic web in information retrieval. Topics of Information Extraction and Statistical Methods in IR will be covered. The ultimate aim of the course is to instill skills in learners that make them aware of the importance of storage and retrieval in the information profession and to learn methods of IR, systems, querying and query processing. It is hoped that the knowledge will empower the students with how to efficiently handle and manage ISAR systems.
