Fidus: uma ferramenta para busca de informações personalizadas na web.

Abstract

The search model used by conventional search engines such as Google, Altavista and Yahoo is intended to satisfy users that have immediate interest for a specific information context instead of users with regular interests. This model also doesn’t provide ways to measure the precision of search results. We present a solution for information search that enables users with regular interests to create a personal profile as an information consumer, allowing the maximization of relevance in search results and to measure the precision of search results. This solution is based on TF-Seno, a TF-IDF variation algorithm implemented in this work.
