Features

Advanced Retrieval Technology

Knowledge Finder offers you what may be the most advanced bibliographic retrieval technology available today. Your search statements can include sentence-style natural language queries - you don't need to learn a complex command language. Probabilistic indexing and retrieval algorithms find not only precise matches to your search request, but also "close" and "nearby" matches. Search results are ranked based upon likelihood of relevance to your request, reducing the amount of time you spend scanning search results. Expert search formulation tools simplify the searching process. Intelligent stemming and expansion of search words automatically increase the scope and retrieval of a search. On-screen controls let you define the degree of precision and recall to be applied to a search. You can use all Knowledge Finder retrieval and citation management tools with the EMBASE Alert CD-ROM.
