Abstract

The problem of word mismatch is fundamental to informationretrieval. The primary goal of this paper is effectively solve theabove-mentioned problem by presenting a novel approach to queryexpansion to LSA and factor analysis, that has a solid statisticalfoundation, called PLSA, since it is based on the likelihoodprinciple and defines a proper generative model of the data.Theexperiment result on TREC data collection shows the method proposedby the paper is effective.
