6 CONCLUSION
A new niche search engine, eBizSearch, was described. It has
found and indexed over 20,000 documents in e-Business. Its organization around CiteSeer, was presented, along with the efforts to make it OAI-compliant. Finally the limitations of CiteSeer in terms of metadata availability, reliability and portability led us to propose a SVM machine learning approach for metadata extraction. Initial results show that this method accurately automatically extracts, tags untagged text and has the potential for extending the domain of tagged metadata.
