Salton asserts that Blair and Maron's conclusions were at least partially based on sentiment as their sample study simply did not provide enough data for them to make this conclusion, as no comparative data from a manually indexed collection was considered.
Salton combines information from the study presented by Blair and Maron and two other studies of systems using large document collections to show that automatic retrieval systems are competitive with manual indexing.
Salton believes that the Blair and Maron study of the STAIRS automatic text-retrieval system produced results that are indeed effective and typical of other similar systems, desite the negative conclusions reached.

 In Memoriam
SMART, which is allegedly known as Salton's Magical Retriever of Text (only later given the dull interpretation "System for the Manipulation and Retrieval of Text'' by more pedantic professors), rapidly matured to the stage where it was the most advanced information retrieval system in the world for many years.
Salton's proudest achievements and enduring legacies are his students-over twenty of whom wrote doctoral dissertations under his guidance.
He is survived by his wife, Mary (Birnbaum) Salton; his daughter Mariann and her husband Richard Thompson; his son Peter and his wife Susan; his brother Jean Sahlmann and his wife Agnes; and three grandchildren, Morgan Thompson, Kathryn Thompson, and Alex Salton.

Gerald Salton discusses the use of quantitative content analysis to summarize documents in "Automatic Text Processing" (1989).
The Salton summarizer uses the word weights to score each sentence of each document in the document corpus.
Summaries produced by the Salton summarizer may not accurately reflect the themes of individual documents because word weights are determined based upon their occurrence across the document corpus, rather than within each individual document.

 Language Log: Language in the social and behavorial sciences
The early 1960s saw Gerald Salton's insight that the content of a document can be usefully approximated by nothing more than the frequency counts of the words it contains, and also the influential work by Frederick Mosteller and others on the use of simple linguistic statistics to make inferences about authorship.
It was during this same period that Bill Labov showed how to use counts of simple things like word choice and pronunciation variation to investigate the social and temporal dimensions of language.
Anyone who uses internet search is reaping the benefits of Salton's ideas, and of course there's a robust area of academic and industrial research on how to make textual information retrieval work better.

 Using Contextual Structure to Guide Exploratory Search   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
The Vector Space Model (VSM) developed by Salton and others [Sal71] conceptually arranges the documents in a collection in what can loosely be described as a semantic space.
To this end, it is necessary to be aware of the various techniques and of the information that must be made available to them to allow them to do their job effectively.
The Vector Space Model introduced by Salton in the SMART system [Sal71] provides the foundation for a broad range of retrieval technology.

Among those authors who contributed more than six articles over the 27-year period, the highest ranked were Abraham Bookstein, with 14, and Gerald Salton, with 13 (see Appendix).
Likewise, Salton's writings began to appear in 1972, and continued to be published periodically until 1990.
Since these authors' relatively numerous contributions covered a wide time frame, one could possibly conclude that these writers were, and are, heavily involved in their fields, perhaps as leading and respected researchers.

 Inter-Linker Consistency in the Manual Construction of Hypertext Documents
Thus, there is usually (but not always) very little agreement between the sets of links identified by different people.
For example, using the well-known Dice coefficient [Salton 1989] with one of the combinations of matrix representation and descriptor, a highly skewed distribution of values was obtained with a median similarity as low as 0.03, i.e., well towards the lower bound of zero for this coefficient.
However, the variable nature is illustrated by the fact that a few of the Dice coefficients for one of the documents (a journal article about probabilistic methods for predicting the biological activity of chemical compounds) were as high as 0.50, causing the mean of the distribution to be 0.12.

But he assigns mathematician Gerald Salton - inventor of Salton's Magical Automatic Retriever of Text [SMART] in the late 1960s -- as the father of the digital search.
"Salton introduced many of the seminal concepts commonly used in search today, including concept identification based on statistical weighting, and relevance algorithms based on feedback from queries," he writes, noting how Salton's work spurred an annual searchers' get-together [between 1980 and the mid-1990s] knows as the Text Retrieval Conference.

For most of the 1980's, a set of corpora known as CACM, CISI, INSPEC, MED and NPL (somtimes referred to as the CORNELL CORPORA) were developed, maintained and distributed by Gerald Salton and his students at Cornell and became the {\em de facto} standard for testing within the IR community.
For some time the most influential test corpora have been the TREC corpora associated with the Text Retrieval Evaluation Conference meetings \cite{Harman95}
