Retrieval of discussions from enterprise mailing lists
Maheedhar Kolla, Olga Vechtomova · 2007
Mailing list archives in an enterprise are a valuable source for employees to dig into the past proceedings of the organization that could be relevant to their present task. Going through the proceedings of discussions about certain topics might be cumbersome and regular search techniques might not work in this context due to the genre that the documents belong to. In this paper, we propose methods, based on theory of subjectivity, to retrieve email messages that could contain argumentative discussions about the topic that the user is interested in.
