This article presents Luppar, an Information Retrieval tool for closed collections of documents which uses a local distributional semantic model associated to each corpus. The system performs automatic query expansion using a combination of distributional semantic model and local context analysis and supports relevancy feedback. The performance of the system was evaluated in databases of different domains and presented results equal to or higher than those published in the literature.

This paper presents a new possibilistic information retrieval system using semantic query expansion. The work is involved in query expansion strategies based on external linguistic resources. In this case, the authors exploited the French dictionary “Le Grand Robert”. First, they model the dictionary as a graph and compute similarities between query terms by exploiting the circuits in the graph. Second, the possibility theory is used by taking advantage of a double relevance measure (possibility and necessity) between the articles of the dictionary and query terms. Third, these two approaches are combined by using two different aggregation methods. The authors also benefit from an existing approach for reweighting query terms in the possibilistic matching model to improve the expansion process. In order to assess and compare the approaches, the authors performed experiments on the standard ‘LeMonde94’ test collection.

Context Analysis

This work proposes and evaluates an approach to query expansion in Information Retrieval based on Local Context Analysis using a Distributional Semantic Representation. In general, the approach performed better compared to that of query expansion using non-distributional, local or global techniques, running over datasets of different application domains.

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.
