Abstract

It is well known that interpretation depends on context, whether for a work of art, a piece of literature, or a natural language utterance. This paper addresses the dynamic context of a collection of linked multimedia documents, of which the web is a perfect example. Contextual document semantics emerge through identification of various users' browsing paths though this multimedia document collection. Some implications of our approach are that the author of a web page cannot completely define that document's semantics and that semantics can emerge through use.
