Current research topic: Context-based and interactive seach for and with text documents

The search application DocAnalyser developed at the chair of communication networks is a new service that offers a novel way to interactively search for similar and related web documents and to track topics without the need to enter search queries manually. The user just needs to provide a web content to be analysed. This is usually the web page (or a specific part of it) currently viewed in the web browser. DocAnalyser then extracts its main topics and their sources (important inherent, influential aspects / basics) and uses them as search words. The returned search words and web search results are generally of high quality. This is mainly due to the implemented state-of-the-art graph-based extraction of keywords of the texts provided. Usually, the currently analysed web document is found again among the Top-10 search results which underlines and confirms this statement. Therefore, this tool can also be used to some extent to detect plagiarism in the WWW.

The service DocAnalyser is offered free of charge by the chair of communication networks.
