WISTUD at TREC 2011: Microblog Track: Exploiting Background Knowledge from DBpedia and News Articles for Search on Twitter

چکیده
These working notes describe the system developed by the WISTUD team for the Microblog track. We evaluated the suitability of semantic technologies for the search task, in particular, query expansion with named entities that are deduced by means of a topic-based profiling process. The results indicate the feasibility of the approach: for half of the topics, at P@30, our top performing automatic method based on semantic profiling yields better results than the median over all submitted runs.

In TREC 2012, we participated in the search and filtering tasks of the Microblog Track. The Microblog track is in its second year, and whilst the real-time ad-hoc search task remained very similar to 2011, a new real-time filtering task was introduced. For both tasks, we made use of temporal evidence and a burst detection algorithm to re-rank documents created during bursty periods. We also mad...
متن کامل10 Weeks to TREC: STIRS Siena's Twitter Information Retrieval System
There has been an increasing interest, both of the research community and federal funding agencies in microblogs as a source of viable information for a variety of tasks. NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) has added a microblog retrieval track to TREC (Text REtrieval Conference) for the first time in 2011. NIST has selected Twitter as the source of microblog data. Twitter is ...
