چکیده

In information retrieval, a user’s query is often not a complete representation of their real information need. The user’s information need is a cognitive construction, however the use of cognitive models to perform query expansion have had little study. In this paper, we present a cognitively motivated query expansion technique that uses semantic features for use in ad hoc retrieval. This model is evaluated against a state-of-the-art query expansion technique. The results show our approach provides significant improvements in retrieval effectiveness for the TREC data sets tested.

Query expansion based on relevance feedback and latent semantic analysis

Web search engines are one of the most popular tools on the Internet which are widely-used by expert and novice users. Constructing an adequate query which represents the best specification of users’ information need to the search engine is an important concern of web users. Query expansion is a way to reduce this concern and increase user satisfaction. In this paper, a new method of query expa...

Event-Based Hyperspace Analogue to Language for Query Expansion

Bag-of-words approaches to information retrieval (IR) are effective but assume independence between words. The Hyperspace Analogue to Language (HAL) is a cognitively motivated and validated semantic space model that captures statistical dependencies between words by considering their co-occurrences in a surrounding window of text. HAL has been successfully applied to query expansion in IR, but ...

Implement Topic Relevance Model For Query Expansion

Query expansion is one of most important technique in information retrieval where provides a series of methods to reform the query applying to retrieval in order to extract result more precisely. In the past, there are many kind of trails on this technique in different perspective. In this project, I’ll try to implement query expansion with topic models, where using topic modeling technique to ...

Real-time Query Expansion in Relevance Models

Automatic query expansion is well known as a technique that improves query effectiveness on average. Unfortunately, it is usually very slow, increasing the time to process a query by 20 times or more. In this study, we use relevance models to show how the process can be made almost as fast as running a non-expanded query.

Cs630 Representing and Accessing Digital Information Scribes: Outline 1 Review: Relevance Feedback 2 Interactive Query Expansion (iqe)

1 Review: Relevance Feedback Explicit Relevance Feedback (RF) is the process in which the user marks documents initially retrieved by an IR system as relevant or not. The system then uses this information to retrieve a better set of results for the user’s query. In the previous lecture we discussed the following ways to use RF information: • Term Re-weighting: Weights of terms that appear in th...
