The Use of Implicit Evidence for Relevance Feedback in Web Retrieval
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we report on the application of two contrasting types of relevance feedback for web retrieval. We compare two systems; one using explicit relevance feedback (where searchers explicitly have to mark documents relevant) and one using implicit relevance feedback (where the system endeavours to estimate relevance by mining the searcher's interaction). The feedback is used to update the display according to the user’s interaction. Our research focuses on the degree to which implicit evidence of document relevance can be substituted for explicit evidence. We examine the two variations in terms of both user opinion and search effectiveness.

Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) has received considerable research interest in the recent years. The basic problem in CBIR is the semantic gap between the high-level image semantics and the low-level image features. Region-based image retrieval and learning from user interaction through relevance feedback are two main approaches to solving this problem. Recently, the research in integra...

We evaluate the use of clickthrough information as implicit relevance feedback in sessions. We employ records of user interactions with a commercial news picture portal: issued queries, clicked images, and purchased content. Our study investigates how much of a session’s search history (if any) should be used in a feedback loop. We assess the benefit of using clicked data as positive tokens of ...
متن کاملA Simulated Study of Implicit Feedback Models
In this paper we report on a study of implicit feedback models for unobtrusively tracking the information needs of searchers. Such models use relevance information gathered from searcher interaction and can be a potential substitute for explicit relevance feedback. We introduce a variety of implicit feedback models designed to enhance an Information Retrieval (IR) system’s representation of sea...
