New Developments in the LRE Map

In this paper we describe the new developments brought to LRE Map, especially in terms of the user interface of the Web application,of the searching of the information therein, and of the data model updates. Thus, users now have several new search facilities, such asfaceted search and fuzzy textual search, they can now register, log in and store search bookmarks for further perusal. Moreover, thedata model now includes the notion of paper and author, which allows for linking the resources to the scientific works. Also, users cannow visualise author-provided field values and normalised values. The normalisation has been manual and enables a better grouping ofthe entries. Last but not least, provisions have been made towards linked open data (LOD) aspects, by exposing an RDF access pointallowing to query on the authors, papers and resources. Finally, a complete technological overhaul of the whole application has beenundertaken, especially in terms of the Web infrastructure and of the text search backend.
