Internet Information Filtering Research and Tool Development

The exponential growth of information available of the Internet together with the accompanying increase in the complexity of the Internet itself requires the development of more effective tools for accessing this environment. The goal of this research is to make contributions to the basic understanding of both the structure and dynamics of information processing in the Internet and to develop both extensions to existing filtering tools, which improve their effectiveness, and new approaches to the filtering process. Methodologies which will be used include neural networks, natural language understanding, and genetic algorithms. A research group called Studies in Information Filtering Technology for Electronic Resources (SIFTER) has been formed to pursue these investigations. The primary application of this research is to healthcare delivery systems.
