چکیده

In this paper, we present a novel approach to text mining that helps to build intelligent user interfaces for recommender and information retrieval systems. The main problem for the user in information retrieval is that he must have almost perfect knowledge of the domain and the domain terminology. Our approach eases this burden by showing a way how to encode domain knowledge so that an information retrieval system can transform the user’s way to talk about the domain in the expert’s way to do that. After that transformation the system can search its data bases for appropriate information. We demonstrate the practicability of our approach in a case study on a TV recommender system. RÉSUMÉ. Le présent article introduit une nouvelle approche dans le domaine de la fouille textuelle, dans le but de faciliter le développement d’intelligentes interfaces aux utilisateurs pour systèmes de recommandation ainsi que de recherche documentaire. En recherche documentaire, le principal problème pour les utilisateurs consiste à devoir disposer de connaissances quasiment parfaites du domaine d’application et de sa terminologie. Notre approche vient atténuer cette réquisition en montrant une façon d’encoder les connaissances de domaines d’application de manière à ce que les systèmes de recherche documentaire puissent transformer la terminologie (relative aux domaines) des utilisateurs en celle des experts des domaines respectifs. Cette transformation effectuée, les systèmes peuvent consulter leurs bases de données pour trouver les informations recherchées. La faisabilité de notre approche est démontrée par l’étude de cas d’un système de recommandation d’émissions de télévision.
