摘要: The problem of automatic query expansion is studied in the context a logic-based information retrieval system that employs - contrast to approaches based on deductive reasoning an abductive inference engine. Given query, abduction process yields set possible expansions query. An architecture for interactive proposed comprising schema-level representation documents' contents and structure, engine, user interface which allows control process. engine was tested collection SGML-structured texts. We report experimental results last section paper.
