Information Retrieval Using Concept Lattices

Muthukrishnan, Arvind Kumar

Abstract Details

2006, MS, University of Cincinnati, Engineering : Computer Science.
Information retrieval concerns the problem of extracting useful and relevant information. There are many general and domain specific search engines. Most of these systems use keyword based retrieval. These retrieval systems won’t retrieve documents where the concept represented by the keyword is present but the keyword itself is absent. In this thesis we discuss about an information retrieval system which employs concept based retrieval. The data set we use is the documents/papers and the attributes associated with them. In this system manual indexing is used to capture all the important concepts/attributes. The documents are covered by attributes from three different perspectives providing a better insight. We use concept lattices to represent data and the lattice structure can be queried for interesting results. In this system only relevant documents are retrieved. Also, complex queries involving multiple fields/collections can be executed and paths between two separate searches can be displayed.
