Adaptive Multimedia Information
Access: Ask Questions, Get Answers
October 2000
Mark T. Maybury, The MITRE Corporation
ABSTRACT
MITRE is pursuing a line of research aimed at creating systems
that transform users from the traditional web search approach in
which the user poses queries and gets (typically an
overwhelming amount of purportedly relevant) pages, to one in
which the user asks questions and gets answers. This suggests
moving away from a conventional information retrieval strategy of
document/web page retrieval to one requiring both multilingual
and multimedia information extraction coupled with personalized
presentation planning
