Translating queries into snippets for improved query expansion [PDF]

open access: bronzeProceedings of the 22nd International Conference on Computational Linguistics - COLING '08, 2008
User logs of search engines have recently been applied successfully to improve various aspects of web search quality. In this paper, we will apply pairs of user queries and snippets of clicked results to train a machine translation model to bridge the "lexical gap" between query and document space.

Conqueries: An Agent That Supports Query Expansion [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2005
This article presents Conqueries, an agent that assists users during their searches on search engines. The system recommends terms and modifiers to users so that they can reformulate their queries. The system unobtrusively learns the user's current needs in order to propose personalized lists of keywords.

A multi-dimensional semantic pseudo-relevance feedback framework for information retrieval [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Pre-trained models have garnered significant attention in the field of information retrieval, particularly for improving document ranking. Typically, an initial retrieval step using sparse methods such as BM25 is employed to obtain a set of pseudo ...

A study of query expansion methods for patent retrieval [PDF]

open access: green, 2011
Patent retrieval is a recall-oriented search task where the objective is to find all possible relevant documents. Queries in patent retrieval are typically very long since they take the form of a patent claim or even a full patent application in the ...

Short Query Expansion for Microblog Retrieval

open access: goldProcedia Computer Science, 2016
AbstractTwitter has emerged as the most popular among microblogging service providers. The content provided in Twitter is large, diverse, and huge in quantity. Given the increasing amount of information available through such microblogging sites, it would be interesting to be able to retrieve useful tweets in response to a given information need ...

Query2doc: Query Expansion with Large Language Models [PDF]

open access: yesConference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing, 2023
This paper introduces a simple yet effective query expansion approach, denoted as query2doc, to improve both sparse and dense retrieval systems. The proposed method first generates pseudo-documents by few-shot prompting large language models (LLMs), and ...

Query Expansion by Prompting Large Language Models [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv.org, 2023
Query expansion is a widely used technique to improve the recall of search systems. In this paper, we propose an approach to query expansion that leverages the generative abilities of Large Language Models (LLMs).
