1 like•408 views
Using Boolean operators such as AND, OR and NOT can make searches more precise. AND narrows searches by only retrieving results that contain all search terms. OR broadens searches by retrieving results with either term. NOT excludes results that contain the excluded term. These operators allow researchers to include, require or omit terms to get the most relevant results.

Boolean Searching
Boolean operators allow users to better control and refine search results. The three main Boolean operators are AND, OR, and NOT. AND returns only items that contain all search terms, OR returns items with either term, and NOT excludes items containing the excluded term. Other operators like quotation marks and asterisks can also help target specific phrases or word stems. Understanding Boolean operators makes searches more precise and efficient at finding relevant information.

Search engine page rank demystification
Hi All,
This Presentation will feature more about the working of search engine how do the inner functionality takes place. In the later half of the Presentation the Page Rank will be explained in depth. how do they calculate it, How it differing from the actual PR, Google PR. How frequently they do update the PR value in the google. and lots more with calculation and few examples.
Boolean Searching
Boolean logic was developed by George Boole in the 1800s and uses AND, OR, and NOT operators to filter information based on his Laws of Thought. Boolean logic is still used today in powerful search engines and databases to efficiently search through large amounts of data and find specific relevant information. The document provides examples of Boolean search strings using different operators to target specific ideas and exclude unrelated information.
Google search techniques
Google provides a powerful search engine that indexes web pages. It allows for various search techniques like phrase searches using quotes, Boolean logic using AND, OR and parentheses, negation using dashes, and including synonyms using tildes. Google ignores common words by default but they can be explicitly included using plus signs. The site, inurl and related syntaxes allow narrowing searches to specific sites, URLs or related pages. Number ranges and wildcards can be used. The Feeling Lucky button directly takes users to the top search result. Within-results searching allows refining an initial result set.
Journalists and the Social Web 1
Journalists can use Google's advanced search operators to more effectively mine information from social networks than searching the social networks directly. Some key operators include "site:" to restrict a search to a specific domain, "inurl:" to search for terms within URLs, and "intitle:" to search for terms within page titles. Using these operators along with relevant search terms allows journalists to efficiently search profiles and pages on networks like Bebo, Friendster, LiveJournal, MySpace, LinkedIn and uncover new leads, case studies, and expert sources for their reporting.
Google search - Tips and Tricks
This document outlines Google search tips and tricks. It discusses the Google search results page layout, how to perform searches, using punctuation and operators to refine searches, quick answers, filtering results, and advanced search options. Tips provided include using fewer search terms initially, the auto-complete feature, phrase searching with quotes, wildcard searches, and excluding terms. Advanced topics like site searching and related searches are also covered.
Keyword and boolean
The document provides guidance on developing effective search strategies for research. It discusses identifying keywords from the research question, determining related synonyms, and considering broader and narrower terms. The document also outlines several search tools for precision, including Boolean logic operators (AND, OR, NOT), truncation, quotation marks, and nesting. Examples are given to demonstrate how to construct search queries using keywords, synonyms, Boolean logic, and other search techniques.

Hype vs. Reality: The AI Explainer
Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere, promising self-driving cars, medical breakthroughs, and new ways of working. But how do you separate hype from reality? How can your company apply AI to solve real business problems?
Here’s what AI learnings your business should keep in mind for 2017.
Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving Cars
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Boolean Searching
- 1. Searching with Boolean Operators Created by Terri Bogan, M.L.S. For Hope International University Fullerton, CA
- 2. Searching with Boolean Operators Make your search more precise using the connectors AND, OR, and NOT between your search terms. Narrow your search using AND. Broaden your search using OR. Exclude words from your search using NOT.
- 3. “AND” Narrow your search and retrieve fewer items by using the Boolean operator “AND”. Example: crime AND statistics The circle on the left represents items with the word “crime”. The circle on the right represents items with the word “statistics”. The shaded crossover section represents items that include both words crime AND statistics. The items retrieved must contain all words in the search. crime statistics
- 4. “OR” Broaden your search and retrieve more items using the Boolean operator “OR”. Example: robbery OR theft The circle on the left represents items with the word “robbery”. The circle on the right represents items with the word “theft”. The entire shaded area, including the crossover section, represents items with either one or both words robbery OR theft. robbery theft
- 5. “NOT” Use “NOT” to eliminate a word meaning (e.g. find items about dna testing, but not as it relates to crime). Example: dna testing NOT crime The circle on the left represents items with the words “dna testing”. The circle on the right represents items with the word “crime”. The crossover section is excluded in a “NOT” search because that section includes items with the word “crime”. crime dna testing
- 6. “AND” Connect your search terms using the “AND” operator.
- 7. “OR” Connect your search terms using the “OR” operator (sometimes referred to as “AND OR”).
- 8. “NOT” Connect your search terms using the “NOT” operator (sometimes referred to as “AND NOT”).
