Study of Query Expansion Techniques and Their Application in the Biomedical Information Retrieval [PDF]
Information Retrieval focuses on finding documents whose content matches with a user query from a large document collection. As formulating well-designed queries is difficult for most users, it is necessary to use query expansion to retrieve relevant ...

Combining fields for query expansion and adaptive query expansion [PDF]
In this paper, we aim to improve query expansion for ad-hoc retrieval, by proposing a more fine-grained term reweighting process. This fine-grained process uses statistics from the representation of documents in various fields, such as their titles, the anchor text of their incoming links, and their body content.

A Semantic Query Expansion Method for Question Answering Based on Knowledge Graph [PDF]
In Question Answering(QA) system,the query intent that is expressed only by the words in the question may not be able to get the ideal answer from the data source.To this end,a semantic query expansion method is proposed for QA system based on knowledge ...
