Abstract

The heterogeneity and the great mass of information found on the web today require an information treatment before being used. The annotations, like all other information, must be filtered to determine those that are relevant. The new concept of “relevant annotation” can be then, considered as a new source of evidence. In addition to the vast amount of annotations, we notice that annotations express generally brief ideas using some words that they cannot be comprehensible independently of his context. This is why, we thought to classify it in clusters annotations sharing the same context and semantically related. In this paper, we propose a new model based on clustering for the classification and probabilistic model for the filtering. In the experiments, we tried to consider the relevant annotation classes as a new source of information able to improve the collaborative information retrieval.
