Using Multiple External Collections for Query Expansion
First, we investigated the possibility of using query sessions from PubMed query logs for improving the estimation of a relevance model. In a typical search scenario, a user may submit multiple queries before she actually finds satisfactory search results. These closely related queries form a single query session which represents a single information need. By finding relevant query sessions wit...
متن کاملSummarization-based Query Expansion in Information Retrieval
We discuss a semi-interactive approach to information retrieval which consists of two tasks performed in a sequence. First, the system assists the searcher in building a comprehensive statement of information need, using automatically generated topical summaries of sample documents. Second, the detailed statement of information need is automatically processed by a series of natural language pro...
متن کاملA Generative Blog Post Retrieval Model that Uses Query Expansion based on External Collections
To bridge the vocabulary gap between the user’s information need and documents in a specific user generated content environment, the blogosphere, we apply a form of query expansion, i.e., adding and reweighing query terms. Since the blogosphere is noisy, query expansion on the collection itself is rarely effective but external, edited collections are more suitable. We propose a generative model...
متن کاملQuery Expansion using External Resources for Improving Information Retrieval in the Biomedical Domain
This paper presents the first participation of the ERIAS team in task 3 of the ShARe/CLEF eHealth Evaluation Lab 2014. The goal of this task is to evaluate the effectiveness of Information Retrieval systems to support patients in accessing easily relevant information. We propose a method which exploits external resources for improving information retrieval in the biomedical domain. The proposed...
متن کاملPhrases, Boosting, and Query Expansion Using External Knowledge Resources for Genomic Information Retrieval
Query expansion has been a staple of the TREC ad hoc task dating back almost to the inception of TREC, showing consistent benefit when added to a wide variety of baseline techniques, e.g., [1, 2]. In the biomedical domain, however, results have been mixed. While Srinivasan obtained improved retrieval using retrieval feedback (automatic relevance feedback) in a small test collection [3], Hersh e...
