Locating Query-oriented Experts in Microblog Search

چکیده
In this paper, we propose an approach to locating queryoriented experts in Microblog. We first define the experts by social influence and content relevance. Then, we adopt the BM25 model to calculate the content relevance of each account. For the social influence, we present a global-ranking algorithm as GUserRank and a topic-ranking algorithm as TUserRank after applying the LDA topic model. After that, we output the ranking expertise degree of each candidate for evaluation. Our experimental results show that the proposed approach is effective and promising. Especially, the topic-ranking algorithm achieves an improvement with 40.11% over the baseline. Furthermore, our approach does not rely on the data sets such that it can be duplicated in many fields.

Structured Event Retrieval over Microblog Archives
Microblog streams often contain a considerable amount of information about local, regional, national, and global events. Most existing microblog search capabilities are focused on recent happenings and do not provide the ability to search and explore past events. This paper proposes the problem of structured retrieval of historical event information over microblog archives. Rather than retrievi...
متن کاملWeb-Based Pseudo Relevance Feedback for Microblog Retrieval
This paper presents the experiments and results for the QCRI participation in the TREC Microblog track 2012. In this year, we apply a query expansion approach for improving the retrieval results in microblog search. Our approach performs web-search with the original query to get web results appeared at the same period of the query; then it extracts the webpage title of the first web result and ...
متن کاملIncorporating Query Expansion and Quality Indicators in Searching Microblog Posts
We propose a retrieval model for searching microblog posts for a given topic of interest. We develop a language modeling approach tailored to microblogging characteristics, where redundancy-based IR methods cannot be used in a straightforward manner. We enhance this model with two groups of quality indicators: textual and microblog specific. Additionally, we propose a dynamic query expansion mo...
متن کاملIRIT at TREC Microblog Track 2013
This paper describes the participation of the IRIT lab, University of Toulouse, France, to the Microblog Track of TREC 2013. Two different approaches are experimented by our team for the real-time ad-hoc search task: (i) a Bayesian network retrieval model for tweet search and (ii) a document and query expansion model for microblog search.
متن کاملQuery Expansion for Microblog Retrieval
Entries in microblogging sites such as Twitter are very short: a “tweet ”can contain at most 140 characters. Given a user query, retrieving relevant tweets is particularly challenging since their extreme brevity exacerbates the well-known vocabulary mismatch problem. In this preliminary study, we explore standard query expansion approaches as a way to address this problem. Since the tweets are ...
