No doubt there are situations where the clustering can be useful for making search more efficient, but, come on, it's just a matter of time until Google overshadows such technology. I find I have more trouble with web searches finding interesting results at all than wading through some irrelvant or unclustered info. I'm happy to filter through a few pages of results if there is a payoff. The answers to more complex questions often aren't available in literal form from just a simple vector of words, they require generalization, extrapolation and careful qualification of *conceptually* related work. Instead, imagine a computerized reader that can tell a decision maker "this argument appears to be bogus on available evidence", or a researcher "this paper demonstrates a novel idea". ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College lectures, archives, unsubscribe, maps at http://www.friam.org
