hey guys,
Today going over and brainstorming over our work, I decided to look at some websites for our project. I haven't done this in a long time, and I regret that now. I found 3 websites that can be of good use for our project. I know that the Natural Language, prolog, and the search stuff is important, but since they expect us to have an elaborate program, I decided to add these 3 websites to our research.
I know it will give Simon some headaches, I'm sorry simon.

-I like this website a lot. It provides photos for several air crashes. If it doesn't have a specific crash, it does include a link to a photo of the TYPE of airplane it is. Also, it includes all the specs of the airplane, such as the number of passengers, the type of motors, and other stuff. I think we can benefit from this one, making it the priority first.
http://www.jetphotos.net/members/photostats.php?photog_id=5394
-This website contains photos submitted by people. They are not all disaster photos so this allows us to include normal photos of specific planes that crashed. For example, we can look for a photo about a specific flight and get a specific photo of the plane. I don't think many military or private photos are included so we don't have a complete database.
http://www.airliners.net
-This is a very complicated website when it comes to the source code. It could be that it's too complicated for Jericho, so we might use a crawler instead to feed the data back to us. However, I suggest this website is the last priority. I wouldn't use it for extracting photos, but maybe for extracting flight numbers for specific flights. Also, the only way we can access the website intelligently would be to use the google api on this website. however, i won't touch this website until maybe 2 or 3 weeks.

group3,
has it happened to you guys that you work at home with eclipse and everything works fine:
+everything compiles
+you are able to checkout anything from the svn server
and then, you go to the faculty and you install Eclipse and you import the source code from the svn server. then you try to compile but you can't!! you get errors like "main method not found" or something similar. FRUSTRATING?
well, today i studied the situation and i found the answer.
just look at the image above. change the settings under
Project->Properties->Build Path

Hi, I have posted the query creator on SVN. The only thing that still really needs to be added is the action for the send query button . Something for you, Steven?
For the rest, if it doesn't run straight from the SVN, then just copy/paste it into a new file, then it works. As you might expect from a one-class application, it is a little bit spaghetti code like, but there was no time or doing it nicely. Then, there are some special cases of queries that do not work really,yet. But those are cases that will not happen in the presentation (can be improved later).
Have fun (and success) tomorrow, I will think of you guys.

Hi,
I've committed some source code to our svn-repository, a small module that will take care of refining the content elements that are provided by jericho.
A very help- and powerful tool I encountered being natively shipped with the JDK (since version 1.2, I guess) is the java.util.regex package which can be used to break up texts in all ways possible.
If you're interested into how it works, follow this link here:

very useful - I just wonder why we haven't been told about it in the database classes - it is somewhat related to queries and such...

Hi,
here is my GUI so far. Can you give some feedback on more functions needed in this first stage until the presentation? Then I can start to add the back-end tomorrow.

Just an idea - it could be nice to have some webspace on a server in order to link some external images into the posts of the blog.
I've made a diagram, I'd like to hear your opinions to - it is critical, because it encompasses what we're going to deliver in this project as a product, with time running out....
I will be glad seeing you at 16:00 on msn.
