AbstractSuccess in Information Retrieval (IR) depends on many variables. Several interdisciplinary approaches try to improve the quality of the results obtained by an IR system. In this paper we propose a new way of using word sense disambiguation (WSD) in IR. The method we develop is based on Naïve Bayes classification and can be used both as a filtering and as a re-ranking technique. We show on the TREC ad-hoc collection that WSD is useful in the case of queries which are difficult due to sense ambiguity. Our interest regards improving the precision after 5, 10 and 30 retrieved documents (P@5, P@10, P@30), respectively, for such lowest precision queries.

Sense Disambiguation

Now-a-days digital documents are playing a major role in all the areas /web, as such all the information is digitalised. Queries are used by the search engines to retrieve the information. Query plays a major role in information retrieval system, as a result relevant and non relevant documents are retrieved. Query expansion techniques will better the performance of the information retrieval system. Our proposed query expansion technique is Word Sense Disambiguation. This is to find the correct sense of the ambiguous word in regional Telugu language. In Query expansion, if the added query term is an ambiguous word, accuracy of relevant documents will be very less. So to avoid this, proposed method Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) is used, which is related to NLP Natural Language Processing and Artificial Intelligence AI. WSD improves the accuracy of information retrieval system.
