Abstract

This paper proposes an information retrieval process that employs a relevance feedback approach based on implicit evidences provided by contextual information and explicit evidences provided by the user behavior during interaction. This process takes advantage of semantic information processing enabled by the use of ontologies to build semantic indexes, to represent context and domain knowledge and to aid interactions mediated by mobile devices.

Exploration of query context for information retrieval
WWW '07: Proceedings of the 16th international conference on World Wide Web

A number of existing information retrieval systems propose the notion of query context to combine the knowledge of query and user into retrieval to reveal the most exact description of user's information needs. In this paper we interpret query context ...
Semantically enhanced Information Retrieval: An ontology-based approach

Currently, techniques for content description and query processing in Information Retrieval (IR) are based on keywords, and therefore provide limited capabilities to capture the conceptualizations associated with user needs and contents. Aiming to solve ...
Combining ontological profiles with context in information retrieval

An ontology is a formal conceptualization of a domain, specifying the concepts of the domain and the relations between them. It is however not a straight forward task to use this knowledge for information retrieval purposes. In this paper we describe ...
