Abstract:
|
Harnessing previously issued queries to facilitate collaborative
querying is an approach that can help users in digital libraries and other
information systems better meet their information needs. Here, the kernel step
is to identify and cluster similar queries by mining the query logs. However
because of the short lengths of queries, it is relatively difficult to cluster queries
effectively using on the terms used since they cannot convey enough
information. This paper introduces a hybrid method to cluster queries by
utilizing both the query terms and the results returned to queries. Experiments
show that this method outperforms existing query clustering techniques. |
