Abstract

Recently, semantic search techniques which are based on information space as consisting of non- ambiguous, non-redundant, formal pieces of ontological knowledge have been developed so that users do exploit large knowledge bases. The purpose of the study is to design more user-friendly and smarter retrieval interface based on ontological analysis, which can provide more precise information by reducing semantic ambiguity or more rich linked information based on well-defined relationships. Therefore, this study, first of all, focuses on ontological analysis on researcher information as selecting descriptive elements, defining classes and properties of descriptive elements, and identifying relationships between the properties and their restriction between relationships. Next, the study designs the prototypical retrieval interface based on ontology-based representation, which supports to semantic searching and browsing regarding researchers as a full-fledged domain. On the proposed retrieval interface, users can search various facts for researcher information such as research outputs or the personal information, or carrier history and browse the social connection of the researchers such as researcher group that is lecturing or researching on the same subject or involving in the same intellectual communication.

본 논문은 정보검색 시스템의 사용자 질의어와 색인에 기반한 검색 과정에서 나타나는 중의성 해소를 위해 질의어 의미정보와 사용자 피드백을 사용하여 검색 성능을 향상시키는 방법을 소개한다. 의미 정보를 이용하여 질의어의 중의성을 해소하는 검색 과정은 검색 결과로서 의미적으로 무관한 많은 문서들을 배제할 수 있다. 이를 위해 검색의 색인이 되는 명사 중심의 의미범주를 기반으로 의미정보 지식베이스를 구축하고, 검색 문서들을 색인어와 해당 의미범주로 분류한다. 검색 과정에서는 사용자의 질의 의미 선택과 정답 문서에 대한 참조 행위를 웹 페이지의 순위 결정에 반영하여 검색 성능을 향상시킬 수 있다.

Abstract

This paper proposes a technique for improving performance using word senses and user feedback in web information retrieval, compared with the retrieval based on ambiguous user query and index. Disambiguation using query word senses can eliminating the irrelevant pages from the search result. According to semantic categories of nouns which are used as index for retrieval, we build the word sense knowledge-base and categorize the web pages. It can improve the precision of retrieval system with user feedback deciding the query sense and information seeking behavior to pages.
