An Architecture for Searching and Indexing Latex Equations in Scientific Literature Ashish Lohia, Kirti Sinha, Soujanya Vadapalli, and Kamalakar Karlapalem   View Paper (PDF)   Return to Specialized Indexing Abstract Equations play a prominent role in developing theories and formulating problems. Most scientists find it easier to work with equations, rather than text documents or keywords. The problem of processing large number of equations, facilitation of search on equations and indexing equations is not trivial. In this paper, we develop a framework to manage, store and process equations. We define various equation similarity measures, propose various search and indexing techniques. A toolkit has been built to process equations and enable users to browse and search equations. ©2006 Association for Computing Machinery
