Abstract

The availability of rich and diverse nature of unstructured and hyper-textual content in the Web coupled with the power of modern search engines either necessitate or lure the users to undertake the task of Web-based Knowledge Gathering (WKG). WKG is typically a complex and cognitive task under taken by the users on the Web for their learning, exploration, discovery investigation or decision-making. Though search is the primary operation in WKG, the involvement of many other human factors makes it difficult for the search engines to address this special requirement.
