Improving pseudo-relevance feedback via tweet selection
2013
Proceedings of the 22nd ACM international conference on Conference on information & knowledge management - CIKM '13
To overcome the limitation of pseudo-relevance feedback for microblog search, we propose a novel query expansion method based on two-stage relevance feedback that models search interests by manual tweet ...
Pseudo-relevance feedback assumes that the top ranked documents in the initial search results are relevant and that they contain topic-related words appropriate for relevance feedback. ...

Interactive Retrieval Based on Wikipedia Concepts
[article]
2014
arXiv
pre-print
This paper presents a new user feedback mechanism based on Wikipedia concepts for interactive retrieval. ...
To realize this mechanism, we propose methods to address two problems: 1) how to select a small number of possibly relevant Wikipedia concepts to show the user, and 2) how to re-rank retrieved documents ...
We propose several methods that are based on different sources of evidence for measuring the relevance degree between a concept and the query. ...

A Combined Query Expansion Approach for Information Retrieval
1999
Genome Informatics Series
The Local feedback method is similar to traditional relevance feedback method [2] , which modifies queries by using the result of the initial retrieval, except that the latter uses the judgment set for ...
The thesaurus expansion improves the performance of initial retrieval, so the result of the retrieval in combination with the local feedback also improves. ...

Empirical investigations on query modification using abductive explanations
2001
Proceedings of the 24th annual international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval - SIGIR '01
We describe several methods of creating abductive explanations, exploring term reweighting and query reformulation techniques and demonstrate their suitability for relevance feedback. ...
In particular we use the notion of abductive explanation, explanations being a description of data that highlight important features of the data. ...

Modeling Temporal Evidence from External Collections
2019
Proceedings of the Twelfth ACM International Conference on Web Search and Data Mining - WSDM '19
Second, we propose a formal retrieval model that generalizes the use of the temporal dimension across different aspects of the retrieval process. ...
In particular, we show that temporal evidence of external collections can be used to (i) infer a topic's temporal relevance, (ii) select the query expansion terms, and (iii) re-rank the final results for ...
Several time-based pseudo-relevance feedback methods were proposed for retrieval in time-sensitive collections using the relevance modeling framework. Keikha et al. ...

POSTECH at NTCIR-6: Combining Evidences of Multiple Term Extractions for Mono-lingual and Cross-lingual Retrieval in Korean and Japanese
2007
NTCIR Conference on Evaluation of Information Access Technologies
From official results, our methodology in Korean won the top in 6 subtasks of total 9 subtasks for Stage 2,and won the top in 2 subtasks of total 3 subtasks for Stage 1. ...
Even though our system is the same as the previous one, final performances from NTCIR-3 to NTCIR-5 are further improved over our previous results by slightly modifying the feedback parameters. ...
In pseudo relevance feedback, we use different methods according to the length of query: Model-based feedback [14] for long queries and expansion-based feedback based on likelihood ratio [10] for short ...

Mapping Query to Semantic Concepts: Leveraging Semantic Indices for Automatic and Interactive Video Retrieval
2007
International Conference on Semantic Computing (ICSC 2007)
In this paper, we consider the problem of exploiting the potential of learned semantics concepts, together with the combination of traditional methods, for automatic and interactive retrieval. ...
For interactive retrieval, searching with relevant concepts plus conventional feedback methods is quite effective and is robust to initial search results. ...
For IVR, there are more chances for utilizing different concepts by updating by the feedback information and this alleviates the pressure for determining the number of relevant concepts. ...
