Utilizing Focused Relevance Feedback
2016
Proceedings of the 39th International ACM SIGIR conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval - SIGIR '16
We present a novel study of ad hoc retrieval methods utilizing document-level relevance feedback and/or focused relevance feedback; namely, passages marked as (non-)relevant. ...
The second method fuses retrieval scores produced by using relevant and non-relevant information separately. ...

Artefact Retrieval: Overview of NLP Models with Knowledge Base Access
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we systematically describe the typology of artefacts (items retrieved from a knowledge base), retrieval mechanisms and the way these artefacts are fused into the model. ...
A lot of research has been devoted to devising and improving the way the knowledge base is accessed and incorporated into the model, resulting in a number of mechanisms and pipelines. ...

A robust approach to optimizing multi-source information for enhancing genomics retrieval performance
2011
BMC Bioinformatics
Results: In the proposed approach, we first consider a common scenario for a metasearch system that has access to multiple baselines with retrieving and ranking documents/passages by their own models. ...
These conclusions are very useful to direct the fusion work in the field of biomedical information retrieval. ...
This motives us to consider a multi-source fusion approach in a metasearch system to utilize these meta-features. ...

Concept-Based Information Retrieval Using Explicit Semantic Analysis
2011
ACM Transactions on Information Systems
Keyword-based retrieval may return inaccurate and incomplete results when different keywords are used to describe the same concept in the documents and in the queries. ...
Information retrieval systems traditionally rely on textual keywords to index and retrieve documents. ...
We show that combining concept-based relevancy of documents with that of passages in these documents performs best for ESA-based retrieval. ...

From ``Identical'' to ``Similar'': Fusing Retrieved Lists Based on Inter-Document Similarities
2011
The Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research
Methods for fusing document lists that were retrieved in response to a query often utilize the retrieval scores and/or ranks of documents in the lists. ...
We present a novel fusion approach that is based on using, in addition, information induced from inter-document similarities. ...

Learning Asymmetric Co-Relevance

Proceedings of the 2015 International Conference on Theory of Information Retrieval - ICTIR '15
Empirical evaluation demonstrates the merits of using the co-relevance estimate in various applications, including cluster-based and graph-based document retrieval. ...
Several applications in information retrieval rely on asymmetric co-relevance estimation; that is, estimating the relevance of a document to a query under the assumption that another document is relevant ...

Kinship contextualization
2013
Proceedings of the 36th international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval - SIGIR '13
In this study we hypothesize that the context of an XML-element originated from its preceding and following elements in the sequential ordering of a document improves the quality of retrieval. ...
Utilizing this context in scoring is called contextualization. ...
This organization of document gives an intuitive starting point for manipulating text passages at the established hierarchy levels of text documents. ...
