Multi-term Web Query Expansion Using WordNet

چکیده
In this paper, we propose a method for multi-term query expansions based on WordNet. In our approach, Hypernym/Hyponymy and Synonym relations in WordNet is used as the basic expansion rules. Then we use WordNet Lexical Chains and WordNet semantic similarity to assign terms in the same query into different groups with respect to their semantic similarities. For each group, we expand the highest terms in the WordNet hierarchies with Hypernym and Synonym, the lowest terms with Hyponym and Synonym, and all other terms with only Synonym. Furthermore, we use collection related term semantic network to remove the low-frequency and unusual words in the expansions. And our experiment reveals that our solution for query expansion can improve the query performance dramatically.

Query Architecture Expansion in Web Using Fuzzy Multi Domain Ontology
Due to the increasing web, there are many challenges to establish a general framework for data mining and retrieving structured data from the Web. 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 ...
متن کاملWeb Query Expansion by WordNet
In this paper, we address a novel method of Web query expansion by using WordNet and TSN. WordNet is an online lexical dictionary which describes word relationships in three dimensions of Hypernym, Hyponym and Synonym. And their impacts to expansions are different. We provide quantitative descriptions of the query expansion impact along each dimension. However, WordNet may bring many noises for...
متن کاملMulti-strategy Query Expansion Method Based on Semantics
Query expansion adds related words to a user query in order to improve retrieval results. It’s an important step in information retrieval. Most of current query expansion methods pay attention to specific expansion strategies or algorithms, while neglecting the query itself. In reaction to the phenomenon, a multistrategy query expansion method based on semantics was proposed. This method starte...

As the amount of online information continues to grow, search becomes an increasingly vital user activity. However, it is difficult to motivate users to generate an appropriate, detailed query so query expansion is commonly used to bolster user's searches. We compare two query expansion methods. The first expands a query using previously submitted queries, the social approach, implemented using...
متن کاملA Re-examination of Query Expansion Using Lexical Resources
Query expansion is an effective technique to improve the performance of information retrieval systems. Although hand-crafted lexical resources, such as WordNet, could provide more reliable related terms, previous studies showed that query expansion using only WordNet leads to very limited performance improvement. One of the main challenges is how to assign appropriate weights to expanded terms....
