Comparing Boolean and Probabilistic Information Retrieval Systems across Queries and Disciplines
Whether using Boolean queries or ranking documents using document and term weights will result in better retrieval performance has been the subject of considerable discussion among document retrieval system users and researchers. We suggest a method that allows one to analytically compare the two approaches to retrieval and examine their relative merits. The performance of information retrieval...
متن کاملOptimization of Boolean Queries in Information Retrieval Systems Using Genetic Algorithms - Genetic Programming and Fuzzy Logic
This paper proposes to use two information retrieval system models (Boolean information retrieval model and extended Boolean (fuzzy) information retrieval model). These models differ by using Boolean queries or fuzzy weighted queries. It also proposes a way for optimizing user query for the two models by using genetic programming and fuzzy logic. And proposes to use more number of Boolean opera...
متن کاملAdapting information retrieval systems to user queries
Users enter queries that are short as well as long. The aim of this work is to evaluate techniques that can enable information retrieval (IR) systems to automatically adapt to perform better on such queries. By adaptation we refer to (1) modifications to the queries via user interaction, and (2) detecting that the original query is not a good candidate for modification. We show that the former ...
متن کاملManaging structured queries in probabilistic XML retrieval systems
Focusing on the context of XML retrieval, in this paper we propose a general methodology for managing structured queries (involving both content and structure) within any given structured probabilistic information retrieval system which is able to compute posterior probabilities of relevance for structural components given a non-structured query (involving only query terms but not structural re...
متن کاملProvenance-Based Retrieval: Fostering Reuse and Reproducibility Across Scientific Disciplines
When computational researchers from several domains cooperate, one recurrent problem is finding tools, methods and approaches that can be used across disciplines, to enhance collaboration through reuse. The paper presents our ongoing work to meet the challenges posed by provenance-based retrieval, proposed as a solution for transdisciplinary scientific collaboration via reuse of scientific work...
