چکیده

The following paper proposes a new kind of relevance feedback. It shows how so called query profiles can be employed for disambiguation and clarification. Query profiles provide useful summarized previews on the retrieved answers to a given query. They outline ambiguity in the query and when combined with appropriate means of interactivity allow the user to easily adapt the final ranking. Statistical analysis of the profiles even enables the retrieval system to automatically suggest search restrictions or preferences. The paper shows a preliminary experimental study of the proposed feedback methods within the setting of TREC’s interactive HARD

Improving habitability of natural language interfaces for querying ontologies with feedback and clarification dialogues

Natural Language Interfaces (NLIs) are a viable, human-readable alternative to complex, formal query languages like SPARQL, which are typically used for accessing semantically structured data (e.g. RDF and OWL repositories). However, in order to cope with natural language ambiguities, NLIs typically support a more restricted language. A major challenge when designing such restricted languages i...

Creating an ontology is a step towards solving this problem. The ontology raises the main entity and the concept of any data in data mining. In this paper, we tried to propose a method for applying the "meaning" of the search system, But the problem ...

Rutgers Information Interaction Lab at TREC 2005: Trying HARD

Within the structure of the TREC 2005 HARD track guidelines, we investigated the following hypotheses: H1: Query expansion using a “clarity”-based approach will increase effectiveness over baseline queries and baseline queries plus pseudo-relevance feedback; H2: Query expansion based on the Web will increase effectiveness over baseline queries and baseline queries plus pseudo-relevance feedback...
