Query Ranking in Information Integration
نویسندگان
چکیده
Given the growing number of structured and evolving online repositories, the need for lightweight information integration has increased in the past years. We have developed an integration approach which relies on partial mappings for query rewriting and combines them with a controlled way of relaxation. In this paper we propose a novel approach for ranking results of such rewritten and relaxed queries over different sources, by punishing lack of confidence in mappings used for rewriting, as well as punishing higher degrees of controlled relaxation introduced. The approach has been evaluated using real world datasets proving the effectiveness of our proposed ranking approach.

Due to the huge amount of data published on the Web, the Web search process has become more difficult, and it is sometimes hard to get the expected results, especially when the users are less certain about their information needs. Several efforts have been proposed to support exploratory search on the web by using query expansion, faceted search, or supplementary information extracted from exte...

Finding high-quality web pages is one of the most important tasks of search engines. The relevance between the documents found and the query searched depends on the user observation and increases the complexity of ranking algorithms. The other issue is that users often explore just the first 10 to 20 results while millions of pages related to a query may exist. So search engines have to use sui...

The problem of information integration is discussed in the context of answering a query over the web. Querying the web requires that information from different web and other sources be intelligently combined to generate all or top-k answers.

In the processes and optimization of information integration, such as query processing, query planning and hierarchical structuring of results to the user, we argue that user quality priorities, data inconsistencies and data quality differences among the participating sources have not been fully addressed. We propose the development of a Data Quality Manager (DQM) to establish communication bet...
متن کاملRRLUFF: Ranking function based on Reinforcement Learning using User Feedback and Web Document Features
Principal aim of a search engine is to provide the sorted results according to user’s requirements. To achieve this aim, it employs ranking methods to rank the web documents based on their significance and relevance to user query. The novelty of this paper is to provide user feedback-based ranking algorithm using reinforcement learning. The proposed algorithm is called RRLUFF, in which the rank...
