Abstract |
The retrieval results of a web search are usually very large. Therefore, the information retrieval system usually uses the relevance ranking to ranking retrieval results, providing users a saving-time way to look through the searching results and obtain the most relevant documents. Currently, most information retrieval systems use similarity instead of relevance to rank the searching results. However, the end-user is the one to determine the relevance of retrieval results, so many researchers consider the user’s relevance requirement and information behavior are the way to improve the effectives of relevance ranking. The objective of relevance ranking is to provide personalized information service for users.
