摘要
The aim of our work is to make the wealth of information on the World Wide Web more readily available to blind people. We wish to enable them to make quick and effective decisions about the usefulness of pages they retrieve. We have built a prototype application called Brookes Talk which we believe addresses this need more fully than other Web browsers. Information retrieval techniques based on word and phrase frequency are used to provide a set of complementary options which summarise a Web page and enable rapid decisions about its usefulness.
