International audience We propose in this paper an approach for document clustering. It consists of representing the corpus as a document graph, where the links are defined by some criteria. These links are quantified by simialrity measures. We aim join this context into the approach of classification to constitute small-worlds networks of homogeneous documents. The homogeneity of the clusters is measured according to the properties of small worlds. The clusters, as well as their proprietes, allow to rerank search results. Some experiments were done on a corpus provided by TREC and the obtained results show the contribution of small-worlds networks in information retrieval. Nous proposons dans ce papier une approche de classification d’un corpus de documents. Elle consiste en une représentation du corpus sous forme de graphe, où les liens sont définis par certains critères. Ces liens sont quantifiés par des mesures de similarité. Nous visons à intégrer ce contexte dans l’approche de classification afin de constituer des réseaux petits mondes de documents homogènes. L’homogénéité des classes est valuée suivant les propriétés des réseaux petits mondes. Les classes, ainsi que leurs propriétés, nous servent au ré-ordonnancement de documents résultats de recherche. Quelques expérimentations ont été menées sur un corpus issu de TREC 1 et les résultats obtenus montrent l’apport des réseaux petits mondes en recherche d’information.

Search Quality

The fact that a lexeme can appear in various forms causes problems in information retrieval. As a solution to this problem, we have developed methods for automatic root lemmatization, automatic truncation and automatic splitting of compound words. All the methods have as their basis a set of rules which contain information regarding inflected and derived forms of words – and not a dictionary. The methods have been tested on several collections of texts, and have produced very good results. By controlled experiments in text retrieval, we have studied the effects on search results. These results show that both the method of automatic root lemmatization and the method of automatic truncation make a considerable improvement on search quality. The experiments with splitting of compound words did not give quite the same improvement, however, but all the same this experiment showed that such a method could contribute to a richer and more complete search request.

Intelligent Information

The main challenge for effective web Information Retrieval(IR) is to infer the information need from user’s query and retrieve relevant documents. The precision of search results is low due to vague and imprecise user queries and hence could not retrieve sufficient relevant documents. Fuzzy set based query expansion deals with imprecise and vague queries for inferring user’s information need. Trust based web page recommendations retrieve search results according to the user’s information need. In this paper an algorithm is designed for Intelligent Information Retrieval using hybrid of Fuzzy set and Trust in web query session mining to perform Fuzzy query expansion for inferring user’s information need and trust is used for recommendation of web pages according to the user’s information need. Experiment was performed on the data set collected in domains Academics, Entertainment and Sports and search results confirm the improvement of precision.

International audience The reduction of the blur and the noise is an important task in image processing. Indeed, these two types of degradation are some undesirable components during some high level treatments. In this paper, we propose an optimization method based on neural network model for the regularized image restoration. We used in this application a modified Hopfield neural network. We propose two algorithms using the modified Hopfield neural network with two updating modes : the algorithm with a sequential updates and the algorithm with the n-simultaneous updates. The quality of the obtained result attests the efficiency of the proposed method when applied on several images degraded with blur and noise. La réduction du bruit et du flou est une tâche très importante en traitement d'images. En effet, ces deux types de dégradations sont des composantes indésirables lors des traitements de haut niveau. Dans cet article, nous proposons une méthode d'optimisation basée sur les réseaux de neurones pour résoudre le problème de restauration d'images floues-bruitées. Le réseau de neurones utilisé est le réseau de « Hopfield ». Nous proposons deux algorithmes utilisant deux modes de mise à jour: Un algorithme avec un mode de mise à jour séquentiel et un algorithme avec un mode de mise à jour n-simultanée. L'efficacité de la méthode mise en œuvre a été testée sur divers types d'images dégradées.

Expertise Retrieval

Expert finding is traditionally related to a subject of research in information retrieval and, often, is taken to mean "expertise retrieval within a specific organization". The task involves finding an expert in an expertise topic. Even though there are interesting proposals in the literature, they do not consider the context in which a given expertise is bound. This Ph.D. thesis introduces the concept of a framework that chronologically contextualizes search results in expert finding. Our motivation is to provide more accurate results of search processes related to finding experts in a given topic, contextualizing the expertise on professional/academic activities, an open research topic. In this paper, we present the main concepts of the framework we are developing and a general overview of its operation. At the moment, we are using the Lattes platform as a data source, for which we developed a process to extract expertise evidence, supported by the Crossref database.

Mobile Context

The explosion of the information available on the Internet has made traditional information retrieval systems, characterized by one size fits all approaches, less effective. Indeed, users are overwhelmed by the information delivered by such systems in response to their queries, particularly when the latter are ambiguous. In order to tackle this problem, the state-of-the-art reveals that there is a growing interest towards contextual information retrieval (CIR) which relies on various sources of evidence issued from the user’s search background and environment, in order to improve the retrieval accuracy. This chapter focuses on mobile context, highlights challenges they present for IR, and gives an overview of CIR approaches applied in this environment. Then, the authors present an approach to personalize search results for mobile users by exploiting both cognitive and spatio-temporal contexts. The experimental evaluation undertaken in front of Yahoo search shows that the approach improves the quality of top search result lists and enhances search result precision.

The World Wide Web is a large distributed digital information space. The ability to search and retrieve information from the Web efficiently and effectively is an enabling technology for realizing its full potential. Information Retrieval (IR) plays an important role in search engines. Today’s most advanced engines use the keyword-based (“bag of words”) paradigm, which has inherent disadvantages. Organizing web search results into clusters facilitates the user’s quick browsing of search results. Traditional clustering techniques are inadequate because they do not generate clusters with highly readable names. This paper proposes an approach for web search results in clustering based on a phrase based clustering algorithm. It is an alternative to a single ordered result of search engines. This approach presents a list of clusters to the user. Experimental results verify the method’s feasibility and effectiveness.

On Line

With the increased use of Internet, a large number of consumers first consult on line resources for their healthcare decisions. The problem of the existing information structure primarily lies in the fact that the vocabulary used in consumer queries is intrinsically different from the vocabulary represented in medical literature. Consequently, the medical information retrieval often provides poor search results. Since consumers make medical decisions based on the search results, building an effective information retrieval system becomes an essential issue. By reviewing the foundational concepts and application components of medical information retrieval, this paper will contribute to a body of research that seeks appropriate answers to a question like “How can we design a medical information retrieval system that can satisfy consumer’s information needs?”
