前言
Preface to the Second Edition
Since the first edition of this book, much has happened in the Information Retrieval (IR) arena, particularly with regard to the Web. For once, the gargantuan volume of information on the Web has transformed the search engines into key tools for seeking and finding information of interest. Further, since the search engines are fundamentally IR systems at their very core, they have become the main proof-of-concept of the application of IR technologies to vast document collections with huge query traffic. We closely followed this evolution by starting search engines in Brazil and Chile, just a few months after the first edition appeared. Later on, we joined the two major search engine companies, Google and Yahoo!, getting even closer to all the action. Hence, this second edition of Modern Information Retrieval reflects not only the changes in the IR field, but also our own experience in research, development, and execution of IR technology, particularly when applied to the Web.
The first edition of Modern Information Retrieval was not a book written in standard fashion, given that we asked contributors to write chapters in areas in which we felt we did not have enough expertise. So, in some sense, we preceded the Wed 2.0 trend of development in collaboration with a team. We aimed at a well integrated book by carefully coordinating and supervising all the writing. To a certain extent, our efforts worked well. Indeed, the first edition of the book sold very well and became the IR best seller, having been reprinted many times. The book has been adopted by hundreds of universities and schools. It has also been translated first to Korean and then to Chinese, with an special non-expensive edition having been printed in India. Hence, just a couple of years after the first edition was printed, we started talking about a second edition. The idea did not materialize until 2004 when we submitted a proposal to the publisher, which was approved. We eventually started working on the second edition by November 2005, more than four years ago. Today, we have finally finished!
In this second edition of Modern Information Retrieval we have followed the same methodology, as it clearly worked with the first edition. Nonetheless, in this case we are authors or co-authors of more chapters and we have taken a stronger hand in shaping the content of the contributed chapters. As a consequence, we have had to change completely many chapters and add many new ones. As a result, 60–70% of this second edition is made of new material, which mostly differs from the first edition vi PREFACE
in the following aspects:
1. A complete reorganization of the content of the first chapters.
2. New chapters on text classification, Web crawling, structured text retrieval, and enterprise search plus a new appendix on open source search.
3. Fully rewritten chapters on user interfaces, multimedia retrieval, and digital libraries.
4. Expanded chapters to include new and important developments such as language models, new evaluation measures, characteristics of queries, cluster-based and distributed IR, learning to rank, search engines interfaces, and personalization, to mention just some of them.
5. An improved Web site aimed at becoming a reference IR teaching resource, which includes a full set of slides for all chapters in the book and recommended lists of exercises.
The final outcome is a book that is almost twice as long and that contains more than twice the number of references of the first edition. In summary, if you liked the first edition of Modern Information Retrieval, we hope you will like this second edition even more. And, in case you did not like the first edition, we hope that this time you will change your mind.

Preface to the First Edition
Information retrieval (IR) has changed considerably in the last years with the expansion of the Web (World Wide Web) and the advent of modern and inexpensive graphical user interfaces and mass storage devices. As a result, traditional IR textbooks have become quite out-of-date which has led to the introduction of new IR books recently. Nevertheless, we believe that there is still great need of a book that approaches the field in a rigorous and complete way from a computer-science perspective (in opposition to a user-centered perspective). This book is an effort to partially fulfill this gap and should be useful for a first course on information retrieval as well as for a graduate course on the topic.
The book is composed of two portions which complement and balance each other. The core portion includes 9 chapters authored or coauthored by the designers of the book. The second portion, which is fully integrated with the first, is formed by 6 stateofthe-art chapters written by leading researchers in their fields. A same notation and glossary are employed in all the chapters. Thus, despite the fact that several people contributed to the text, this book is really much more a textbook than an edited collection of chapters written by separate authors. Further, contrary to a collection of chapters, the contents and organization of this book have been carefully designed by the main authors to present a cohesive view of all the important aspects of modern information retrieval.
From IR models to indexing text, from IR visual tools and interfaces to the Web, from IR multimedia to digital libraries, the book provides both broadness of coverage and richness of details. It is our hope that, given the now clear relevance and significance of information retrieval to modern society, the book will contribute to further disseminate the study of the discipline at information science, computer science, and library science departments throughout the world.

书摘
Libraries were among the first institutions to adopt IR systems for retrieving information. Usually, library systems were initially developed by academic institutions and later by commercial vendors. In the first generation, such systems consisted of anautomation of existing processes such as card catalogs searching, restricted to authornames and titles. In the second generation, increased search functionality was added to include subject headings, keywords, and query operators. In the third generation,which is currently being deployed, the focus has been on improved graphical in terfaces,electronic f
rms, hypertext features, and open system architectures.
Traditional library management system vendors include Endeavor InformationSystems Inc., Innovative Interfaces Inc., and EOS International. Among systems developed with a research focus, we distinguish MELVYL developed by the California Digital Library at University of California, and the Cheshire system developed originally at UC Berkeley and lately in cooperation with the University of Liverpool.Further details on these library systems can be found in Chapter 16.1.1.3 IR at the Center of the Stage Despite its maturity, until recently, IR was seen as a narrow area of interest restrictedmainly to librarians and infrmation experts. Such a tendentious vision prevailed for many years, despite the rapid dissemination, among users of modern personalcomputers, of IR tools for multimedia and hypertext applications. In the beginning of the 1990s, a single fact changed once and for all these perceptions the in troductionof the World Wide Web.
The Web, invented in 1989 by Tim Berners-Lee, has become a universal repository of human knowedge and culture. Its success is based on the conception of a standarduser interface which is always the same, no matter the computational environmentused to run the interface, and which allows any user to create their own documents.As a result, millions of users have created billions of documents that compose the largest human repository of knowledge in history. An immediate consequence is that finding useful information on the Web is not always a simple task and usually requiresposing a query to a search engine, i.e., running a search. And search is all aboutIR and its technologies. Thus, a hnost overnight, IR has gained a place with other technologies at the center of the stage.
