Abstract: | Web browser bookmark files are used to retain and organise records of web sites that the user would like to revisit. However, bookmark files tend to be under-utilised, as time and effort is needed to keep them organised. We use two methods to index and automatically classify documents referred to in 80 bookmark files, based on document title-only and full-text indexing, respectively. We evaluate the indexing methods by selecting a bookmark entry to classify from a bookmark file, and recreating the bookmark file so that it contains only entries created before the selected bookmark entry. Classification based on full-text indexing generally outperforms that based on document title only indexing. The ability to recommend the correct category at rank 1 using full-text indexing ranges from 20% to 41%, depending on the number of category members. However, combining the approaches results in a increase to 37% — 59%, but we would need to recommend up to two categories to users. By recommending up to 10 categories, this increases to 58% — 80%. |
