A network model approach to document retrieval taking into account domain knowledge

We preset a network model for context-based retrieval allowing for integrating domain knowledge into document retrieval. Based on the premise that the results provided by a network model employing spreading activation are equivalent to the results of a vector space model, we create a network representation of a document collection for retrieval. We extended this well explored approach by blending it with techniques from knowledge representation. This leaves us with a network model for finding similarities in a document collection by content-based as well as knowledge-based similarities.
