BM25t: a BM25 extension for focused information retrieval
Résumé
This paper addresses the integration of XML tags into a term-weighting function for focused XML Information Retrieval (IR). Our model allows us to consider a certain kind of structural information: tags that represent a logical structure (e.g. title, section, paragraph, etc.) as well as other tags (e.g. bold, italic, center, etc.). We take into account the influence of a tag by estimating the probability for this tag to distinguish relevant terms from the others. Then, these weights are integrated in a term-weighting function. Experiments on a large collection from the INEX 2008 XML IR evaluation campaign showed improvements on focused XML retrieval.
