I'm hoping someone here can point the way toward a fairly specialized topic.
I have large amounts of content that need to be classified. Irrelevant or
"uninterest ing" (by our criterion) articles need to be disposed of.
"Interestin g" articles should be tagged with a number of points of metadata.
As much as possible, I would like machines to do this work. Fairly dumb
ways of doing this might include using our existing databases/metadata as
keyword collections and classifying based on brute-force scans and matches
against our content (e.g. strings "Department of Laboratory Medicine",
"Dr. James Fine." Smarter ways may have been suggested by some of the
presentations at the recent "Google Developer Day" in Mountain View:
programmatic analysis of seed texts led to mechanisms of analysis that
seemed much more efficient than raw text scanning.
I am speculating based on no real knowledge but I would imagine it would be
possible to develop some kind of "relevance index" for an item as compared
to an existing body of text, and keep or dump based on a threshold. More
interestingly, maybe I have classified a thousand articles as say, "UW
biomedical research," and there is an algorithmic means by which we could
assess the "UW biomedical research-ness" of an unknown text. That would be
very useful.
Are there resources or readings I can be looking at? Are there any
pre-existing libraries or frameworks or tools that could ease this task? The
content lives in MS SQL Server 2005 or can be placed in it; Index Server is
installed on my servers; maybe there are things within these tools that can
help.
Thanks in advance for any leads you can offer.

I am working with an open source piece of software that is
overwhelming me and I was hoping to get some advice.
It is in some areas simple and others nearly impossible. There are

virtually no commenting or documentation.

C# is great but it does have some short comings. Here, I examine one of them
which I definitely think is a shortcoming.
Coming from C++, there seems to be no equivalent in C# to separate code
cleanly for the user's benefit. Why is this important? Because a user gets
to maintain this code, not a machine. C++ exposed us to header files which
was a way, among other things, to cleanly separate class implementation from
declaration. Why was...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
